12th Annual Citywide Garage Sale

&
Goodwill Donation Event
Same Day: 1:00pm to 5pm

The 12th Annual Citywide Garage Sale will be held on Saturday, September 24, 2011 from 9:00am to 2:00pm. At last year’s event, over 135 participants throughout the City held sales which drew prospective buyers from all over the Bay Area. The Goodwill donation event held on the same day resulted in 35,000 pounds of donations from 200 donors. The City would like to thank the buyers and sellers who participated in the 2010 event and encourage them and others to participate again this year and make it an even greater success!

Residents can register up to the day before the event using the online registration form, but those who wish to have their sales included on any printed maps must register their sales by September 14. After registering, download a 2011 Garage Sale "How To" Kit with tips for having a successful sale, such as coordinating with neighbors for a neighborhood sale. These larger sales tend to draw more attention from customers and provide a great way to get to know your neighbors.

Just prior to the event, the online Garage Sale Map which includes sellers’ sale item categories and descriptions of notable items will be available from this web page.

Items in good condition that are not sold at garage sales may be donated to the Goodwill which will be operating a donation center from 1:00pm to 5:00pm on Johnston street near City Hall on the same day as the Citywide Garage Sale. Please see Goodwill’s list of acceptable and unacceptable items.

Remember, by opting to pass along reusable items to others rather than taking them to the dump, you will conserve natural resources, reduce the burden on the local landfill, help out others in the community, and make some money in the process! We look forward to your participation! For more information, please email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
