Small Business for Sale - Carpet Overlocking

Brent from Masterton District

Carpet Overlocking Business for sale - Could be added to an existing business or may suit a retiree wanting some extra cash.



Time spent would be approximately 10 to 15 hours per week.



Offer a service to cut up left over carpets, overlock around the edges and make into mats or floor coverings.

Brilliant way of using up left over carpets



Sell to the end-users and all the local carpet stores.



Very well known, have been operating in Masterton since 2006, so approximately a 16 year old business.



Good range of wool colours to match the varying fashions, new and old carpets that come in.



Large table for working on, to cut to size and overlock on, which butts up to the Overlocker to support the mat while sewing around it.



Also included:

Shelves to store the wool on;

Stand to hold finished carpet mats;

Trolley to hold workgear etc.;

Straight edges, square, tape measure and scissors etc..



Would be a great add-on to an existing business.

May suit an ex-carpet layer as would be used to handling carpet.

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
