Community Yard Sale

An Annual Event

  • Date: 06/04/2022 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM  

The Oswego Community Yard Sale will take place from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, June 3, and Saturday, June 4, rain or shine.

Here's the Oswego Ledger advertisement that lists all participating Oswego addresses. It will be published on Thursday, June 2. 

If you missed the opportunity to register and sign up for the ad, you may still host a yard sale. A permit is not needed! Please review the below guidelines for garage/yard sales. 

Garage sales are great for our community’s environment, promoting reuse and recycling of materials, however, particular guidelines are in place for this year’s sale to help sellers and customers remain safe.

GUIDELINES/EXPECTATIONS
1. WEATHER: Hosts should exercise their own discretion regarding when to open or close their yard sale, including in the case of extreme weather.
2. PUBLICITY: The Village of Oswego’s role is solely in advertising and publicizing the event. The Village will advertise the yard sale on www.oswegoil.org, its social media platforms, and full-page ad in the Oswego Ledger on Thursday, June 2. The Village does not provide assistance for set-up, operation, or clean-up for any yard sale.
3. YOUR ADDRESS: If you choose to participate as a seller, the Village will publish your street address so that shoppers can find your yard sale. Your name will not be published with the address.
4. RESIDENTS ONLY: You must be a Village of Oswego resident to participate as a seller.
5. COST: The cost to register is $7.00, which helps offset the Village offset advertising costs.
6. PUBLIC SAFETY GUIDELINES
a. Display/sell merchandise from your yard and/or driveway only. Do not use your garage for customers. Airflow is essential.
b. Place a table with hand sanitizer and/or disinfecting wipes and a garbage can at the front of the sale for customer use.
c. Hang clothing or place on tables so as not to make customers sort through piles or bins.
d. Clean and disinfect common areas and surfaces which are touched by multiple people.
e. Sellers handling money should wash hands frequently.
f.  You may post no more than TWO signs that are not on your property.  You are required to remove the signs at the close of the sale and are not allowed to place signs on utility poles or street signs.
