Hearthstone Residents Gearing Up for Fall Community-Wide Garage Sale in October
Hearthstone neighbors will have the chance to clear out their closets, garages, and attics during the Fall 2025 Community-Wide Garage Sale on Saturday, October 11, from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The event is a much-loved tradition in the neighborhood, bringing together residents and bargain hunters for a day of discovery, deals, and community connection.
Your friends at My Neighborhood News will be sharing details about the sale with the broader community, helping to spread the word and encourage shoppers from across the area to stop by Hearthstone.
Preparing for the Sale
For sellers, a little preparation can go a long way toward making the day a success. Here are some top tips:
-
Organize early: Start sorting items a few weeks before the sale. Group items by type—such as clothing, toys, tools, or décor—for easier browsing.
-
Price fairly: Use easy-to-read labels and price tags. Bundle smaller items together to move them quickly.
-
Make it inviting: Display items neatly on tables, blankets, or shelves rather than leaving them in boxes. Give dusty items a quick wipe-down so they look more appealing to your customers.
-
Advertise with signs: Place bright, legible signs at key neighborhood entrances (where permitted) to help guide shoppers.
-
Have change ready: Stock up on small bills and coins, or consider using mobile payment apps for added convenience. Remember to keep all currency in your possession at all times and never leave it unattended. Consider using a convenient fanny pack!
What doesn't sell can still find a new home! After the sale, consider dropping off unsold items like clothing, housewares and furniture to local nonprofits (check out our list of local donation center here) so they can sell those items in their resale shops. Proceeds from all sales go directly into their community programs that support your neighbors in need. It's truly a win-win!
