🔧 Shed, Garage & BBQ Fire Safety Tips

Fires can grow rapidly when items such as gas cylinders, petrol cans and other chemicals are present. Reduce your risk by removing unnecessary fuels and storing essential items safely and away from heat sources.

• Store chemicals safely.
Keep petrol, paints, solvents, and other chemical products in approved containers, away from ignition sources and out of reach of children.

• Dispose of unwanted chemicals correctly.
If you no longer need certain chemicals, take them to a proper disposal facility. Never pour them down drains or throw them in household rubbish.

• BBQ safely by checking hoses and connections.
Regularly inspect gas hoses for cracks, brittleness, or wear. Check all connections for leaks before use, a simple soapy‑water test can help identify escaping gas.

There’s been a lot of history shared by people sitting on these very comfortable chairs.

Brigade elections, Christmas dinners, Total Fire Ban day card games and much more have all been shared while enjoying their cushions and back support.

Yet not one single bed has been made on them, despite bidding starting at only $5 for 31 of them. You can’t even buy one chair for that at an op shop these days.

These chairs deserve better.

They’re stackable so can be stashed in the shed when not in use, while being extremely handy for parties.

Go on, bid now!

And if they don’t take your fancy there are plenty of other great items in the auction link in the comments.
