What you need to know ahead of time:
This is not a sale for vendors specializing in single type items.
You may request 1 or 2 spaces for selling. Each space comes with a second free space for your vehicle(s). The cost of each selling space is $25 with a second check of the same amount to be held until the sale is over. We allot spaces on a first come first served basis.
Clothing of the worn t-shirt/jeans variety does not sell well but more specialized clothing like: clothing for infants and young children, exercise wear, sports gear, winter wear, etc.
Household goods, kitchen items, tools, craft supplies, household linens, sports equipment are all good sellers. Infant and children’s equipment and toys are popular.
All items should be in good working condition. Note: There is no electricity on site.
Items of furniture sell well but large items present a challenge to transport. Smaller pieces that can be carried out sell quickly. You will be responsible for transporting large items.
Items should be priced to sell. You are responsible for setting the prices. After the sale all items must be removed from your space. Along with the check to ‘rent’ your space we require a second check, which is held until the sales end, returned to you when your space is vacated and clear of stuff.
We provide no trash barrels on site, all trash must be taken home with you.
We have 124 spaces to ‘rent’. Attendance of buyers has been in the thousands.
