New year, clear space: a room-by-room decluttering guide
Start 2026 with less clutter and more purpose. Our practical room-by-room guide helps you declutter and donate items to charity bins near you.
Pop into Vinnies Hobart on Elizabeth Street for a friendly, old-fashioned charity shop in the heart of Hobart. It sits close to the waterfront and the busy city centre, so it is easy to combine with a stroll around Salamanca or a coffee run. The shop is open most days from 9 am to 5 pm, closed Sundays, so mornings are a good time to beat the crowds. You will find clothing, furniture, books, manchester and heaps of bric-a-brac, with new bits arriving most weeks. There is some street parking nearby and a few paid car parks within a short walk, so bring a few coins or use PayStay. Volunteers run the place with big smiles, and the shop has that warm, community vibe where locals chat while they browse. Pick up a bargain, donate a bag, or volunteer a few hours. Your purchases help Vinnies support people in need.
