HALSEY ROAD RECYCLERS
This spacious junk warehouse is hidden in the industrial jungle on the way to Melbourne airport. Next time you’re heading that way, allow an extra hour and go picking.
ADDRESS: 11-13 Halsey Road, Airport West, Victoria
PHONE: 03 9338 1885
OPEN HOURS: Wednesday to Saturday 9am – 5pm (full contact details below)
Halsey Road Recyclers is an offshoot of Wren Demolition, but stock in the warehouse has been collated from a wide range of sources. Todd Wren has owned antique stores since 1976 and has been saving, collecting and restoring Australian vintage all his life.
Visitors can browse household furniture; industrial vintage; collectables; secondhand office furniture; recycled building materials; and plenty of intriguing bits and pieces. The space is well organised and easy to navigate, and staff are friendly and happy to help.
Airport West may sound daunting for inner city dwellers but Halsey Road is easy to find and barely 100 metres from the Tullamarine Freeway. They also offer a delivery service.
Half the fun of junk hunting is finding somewhere new. If you like poking around a large space with plenty of variety, Halsey Road Recyclers won’t disappoint.

Hi There,
I think this site is fabulous and have referred to it several times since very recently stumbling over it. I was trying to find the key to the pricing classifications though. Is there one? It’s just I’m not sure if “Reasonable” is meant to mean quite good prices and whether “Mid-Range” is generally less than reasonable or more…, therefore a legend of what pricing categories you have for the stores would be handy!
Thanks,
Jean
Thanks Jean that’s great feedback. To be honest I am still working out how to categorise pricing but I will put some effort into a more coherent system! Really glad you find the site useful.
Regards
Lara
Dear staff,
Looking for a rare vintage toilet pan, Armitage Magnia patent 1130. Can you suggest a likely firm to enquire at?
Regards, Geoff.
Hi Geoff
Sorry I am not sure where to start with that. Guys like George at Factory Antique Market have been in the business a long time and may have a better idea of where to go. Sorry I can’t help more.
Cheers
Lara
Great stuff. Thank you for the recycler recommendation.
