REMINDER: Westheimer Lakes Community Garage Sale, Document Shredding Event on June 15
Get ready to find some hidden treasures and have a clean slate for your paperwork this summer. The Westheimer Lakes community is excited to be hosting its much-anticipated garage sale on June 15. The event will take place from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM, offering residents ample time to browse through a plethora of items that could be the missing piece in their home.
But the day doesn't end there. Following the garage sale, the community is also organizing a document shredding event from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. This is the perfect opportunity for those who have been holding onto old documents and paperwork, as you can dispose of them securely and responsibly. The shredding event will take place at the Splashpad/Basketball Pavilion, located at 26103 Canyon Fields Drive, Richmond, TX 77406.
Here are some top tips to prepare for your garage sale:
- Start early: Begin sorting through your items well in advance to ensure a well-organized sale day.
- Price wisely: Research similar items to set reasonable prices that attract buyers. Place price tags or labels on items you plan to include in your sale before the sale date.
- Organize efficiently: Display items neatly and categorize them for easy browsing, and organize clothing by size and gender.
- Spruce up: Wipe down any items that may have collected dust, including your display tables, for higher appeal ad presentation.
- Offer deals: Consider bundle discounts or special offers to entice shoppers.
- Be alert: Place high-value items in a visible area for safekeeping and to attract potential customers to your sale. Have cash on hand in a lock box to make change for your customers, and keep your cash box closely at all times.
- Collaborate: Get the family involved and have your children select items they would like to sell such as toys they haven't played with in a while, outgrown clothes or bicycles that are now too small.
- Spark interest: Place a sign in your yard with a brief description of featured items in your sale like bicycles, grills or large workout equipment to attract customers.
