The event is being held at Studfall shops on Saturday and will give bargain hunters the chance to snap up some good deals.
People can donate unwanted goods such as toys, furniture, clothes, DVDs and books from 10am to midday, and between midday an
d 3pm, shoppers will be able to pay a £1 entrance fee and take away up to six items free of charge.
All the money raised from the day, which has been organised by Corby Council, will go to the mayor's charities.
Officers from the council and deputy mayor Cllr Peter McEwan will be attending to help out.
Natasha Bell, a street scene education officer from Corby Council, who helped organise the event, said: "A lot of people think that things they have are rubbish and we thought this would show people what can be reused.
"We have got a few items already but mainly it's reliant on donations, and we would encourage as many as we can get.
"I think it should be quite well attended and it should spark a lot of interest.
"We'll see how well this one goes and then possibly do it again in the summer."
Where possible nothing will be wasted and the main aim of the day is to reuse unwanted items and reduce the amount of waste that the borough sends to landfill in the run-up to the Northamptonshire Reuse Fortnight.
Any items that have not been taken at the end of the day will be donated to the Lakelands Hospice Store.
William Gilmour, of Wordsworth Avenue, in the Lloyds estate, said: "I will pop in and have a look on Saturday if I'm around the shopping area.
"Anything that helps these people is a good thing.
"You have got to admire people who think up all these things."
The event is being held in the vacant unit next to Pam's Florists in Studfall Avenue from 10am for anyone who would like to donate some goods, and from midday for people who want to go along and see what they might like to take.
