Tips for Holding a Yard Sale
Use a yard sale to reduce the clutter in your home and get rid of items you don’t want to move.
-
Check with your city government to see if you need a permit or license.
-
See if neighbors want to participate and have a “block” sale to attract more visitors.
-
Advertise. Put an ad in free classified papers, put up signs and balloons at major intersections and in stores near your home.
-
Price items ahead and attach prices with removable stickers. Remember, yard sales are supposed to be bargains, so don’t try to sell anything of significant value this way.
-
Check items before the sale to be sure you haven’t including something you want by mistake.
-
Keep pets away from the sale.
-
Display everything neatly and individually so customers don’t have to dig through boxes.
-
Have an electrical outlet so buyers can test appliances.
-
Have plenty of bags and newspaper for wrapping fragile items.
-
Get enough change, and keep a close eye on your cash.
