Selling coins in Cambridge
Cambridge was formed from three older mill towns on the Grand River and kept their stone architecture, and it has a substantial automotive assembly presence alongside that history. It is the most traditionally industrial of the region’s three cities.
Manufacturing shift work and the region’s technology sector both feed the market, and the older housing stock in the mill districts turns over with genuinely old contents.
The old mill districts have narrow streets and limited parking, so for anything large agree access before the day. Elsewhere driving is easy and the town is small enough that any landmark works.
In the old mill districts, measure the stairwell and the doorway before agreeing to anything large. Those buildings were not built for modern furniture and it is the commonest reason a collection falls through.
