The Starship Spring Clean 2015 is under way
We're stoked to be supporting the Starship Spring Clean again this year!
The Starship Spring Clean is our way of lending a hand to one of New Zealand's most awesome organisations, the Starship Children’s Foundation and will run right through the month of September.
There are three things involved: list an item, pledge to donate auction proceeds to Starship, and then donate once the item is sold. More...

New: Video on Trade Me Motors car listings
If a picture is worth a thousand words, imagine what you can do with a video!
From today on the desktop site, you can add videos to your car listings on Trade Me Motors. Showcase your car to potential buyers by either adding a video when you create your listing, or adding a video to existing listings – there’s now an area in the Photos & video section on the desktop site where you can do this.
New photos need to be a minimum of 500 pixels
From today, any new photos (doesn’t apply to relists) uploaded to listings within our General Items categories will need to be a minimum of 500 pixels on the longest side. Photos need to meet the required dimensions in order to be uploaded.
These changes only apply to our General Items categories, with a couple of exceptions. They don’t apply to listings in the Movies & TV categories, or Trade Me Property, Trade Me Motors or Trade Me Jobs listings.

A new way to browse with homepage searches
Over the last year we’ve changed the look and feel of search results and listings in our General Items categories. The new designs are more visually appealing and should make it easier for you to browse listings and quickly check out their main photo.
The new layout has now been rolled out to search results when a search is made from the homepage – previously this was only available when you searched within a General Items category. This means when you run a search from the homepage you’ll now see the new and improved look and feel, as well as listings from other categories (like Property, Motors, Jobs and Services).
We hope you enjoy.
