Did you know that Frankston is home to nine fabulous recycled fashion outlets, including the largest recycling fashion store in Victoria, Savers?
Frankston's recycling fashion outlets have become one of the real strengths of our city - with people travelling from far and wide to take advantage of some of the vintage and second's purchases that are available. Many people even take part in the recycled retail trail, starting at St Pauls and Vinnies in Ross Smith Avenue, through to City Life on Clyde Street and then they walk along Wells Street to get to the Red Cross Shop and the Salvos on Thompson Street, before reaching Savers on Playne Street. Located in Keys Street, the Brotherhood of St Lawrence storeis also just minutes away from the other stores.
Woorinyan opened their Young Street store recently, which is also a great recycled fashion outlet. It is also worth noting that City Life and the Salvo's also sell furniture. Some outlets also stock new lines of clothing.
The below map shows the Recycling Retailers (Red) and Pawn Brokers (Blue) located in Frankston's city centre.
Next time you visit Frankston, have a stroll around and you might be able to pick up a bargain at our many recycled retail outlets, you will be pleasantly surprised by the quality and the variety on offer.
