Yard sales are held on pretty much every block of the entire city.
The sale is held throughout the city, start at whichever streets are closest to you.
Compared with Saturday, there are significantly fewer sales on Friday & Sunday. I estimate about one-fourth of the sales are 2-day sales that extend to Friday or Sunday.It says here that the yard sale weekend is next weekend, but there are people having yard sales this weekend, which is it?
Many people get confused and believe yard sale weekend is the first Saturday of the month, but they are incorrect. The official weekends are the first Friday through Sunday weekend that occurs within the selected months. If a yard sale is held at a time outside of the official yard sale weekend a city issued permit is required.
