As a seasoned garage sale aficionado with years of experience and a knack for turning old treasure into someone’s new found love, I'm here to guide you through the ins and outs of organising a garage sale that's destined to be a hit, time after time.

Let's dive into the excitement and profitability of a well-executed garage sale with the tips and tricks of success that I've honed over many weekends of garage sales?

Now is the time to go of the trash hoarding and create your very own treasure island of bountiful treasures for cashed up pirates!

Running a successful garage sale involves a combination of simple planning, common sense organisation, and targeted marketing.

Below is our free tips, tricks and tactics guide to help you make the most of your next garage sale, yard sale or boot sale:

• Set a Date and Time: Choose a date and time for your garage sale, preferably on a weekend when more people are likely to be off work and available to shop. Avoid major event weekends, public holiday weekends and weekends where people in your area my be otherwise occupied.


• Gather Items: Go through your home and gather items you no longer need or want to sell. Make sure they're in good condition. Consider pricing each item as you gather them.


• Simple Advertising: Spread the word about your garage sale. You can do this through various advertising and socials such as:


• Posting signs in your local shops and community notice boards with the date, time, and address of the garage sale.
• Post details on social media platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, local community groups, and Craigslist.
• Listing your sale in local newspapers and on online classified ad web sites.
• Advanced Notice using online garage sale apps or web sites.


• Organise Items: Arrange your items in a well-organised manner as permitted space allows. Group similar items together and display them attractively. Use tables, racks, or boxes to make browsing easier for shoppers. Avoid making trip hazards with items, and attend to the arranged items regularly to tidy or rearrange as items sell.


• Price Items: Clearly mark prices on each item or group of items. You can use stickers, tags, or signs. Be prepared to negotiate, but have a general idea of the lowest price you're willing to accept for each item.


• Provide Adequate Signage: Ensure your signs are clear, visible and easy to follow. Use large, legible lettering and include arrows pointing the way to your sale. Secure any public area signage with rope, cord, duct-tape or bricks, depending on your signage styles. Remember to remove all signage and fixing materials once the garage sale has concluded.


• Set Up Early Start setting up your garage sale early in the morning to catch early birds. Make sure everything is organised and ready to go before the scheduled start time. Ensure you have plenty of small change.


• Offer Simple Refreshments: Consider offering basic coffee, lemonade, or simple snacks to visitors/shoppers. This can create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere and will encourage people to linger longer at your sale.


• Be Friendly and Approachable: Greet shoppers warmly and be ready to answer any questions they may have about your items. A friendly attitude can go a long way in making sales and creating a positive experience for customers.


• Be Flexible with Pricing: As the day progresses, consider lowering prices on items that haven't sold to encourage sales and clear out inventory.


• Be Security Conscious At All Times: Be Vigilant and keep your money safe by using a cash box, money belt or apron to hold your sales earnings. Where possible have a second person to help you manage the sale, assist with meet and greets, and to keep an extra pair of eyes on things.


• Dispose of Unsold Items: Donate or properly dispose of any items that don't sell. Consider donating them to charity or arranging for a pickup service to haul away larger items.

By following the above simple tips, strategies and staying organised, you can increase the chances of having a very successful and stressless garage sale, while you declutter your home in the process.
