The donated goods are boxed and stored ready for collection.
When the garage is full, a pickup is organised.
Legendz Removals, co-ordinated by Louis, kindly upload the goods from the Gold Coast to Hawkins Freight Depot at Eagle Farm, Brisbane. They do this at no cost. Thanks Louis and Legendz Removals for your continued support of our work in Normanton.

Once Legendz Removals arrive at Hawkins Depot, the boxes are unloaded, stacked onto pallets and plastic wrapped.
The pallets are then loaded onto Hawkins Transport for delivery to Normanton. Many thanks to Bradley Hawkins for his support and kind donation of the freighting our Op Shop goods from Brisbane to Normanton.
Upon arrival in Normanton, the pallets are unloaded and stacked near the Op Shop.
The pallets are unpacked and the boxes are stored in containers.
Sales of donated goods are sometimes held in the Church hall next to the Op Shop.
