FAQ
Q. How can I become a vendor?

Q. What can I SELL?
A. Almost anything. Junk, furniture, books, arts & crafts, paintings, toys, old farm equipment, tools, records, dishes and glassware, photo equipment, bicycles, motorcycles, boats, cars, trailers are all desirable items. 

Q. WHERE will the YARD SALES be?
A. Yard sales will be found along the route at homes located on the designated route, in businesses parking lots, along side streets adjacent to the route, in wide open fields and pastures and basically anywhere people can find to set up. Some areas will have large numbers of vendors in one group, others may be scattered and, in some instances, you may travel for several miles or more without seeing a yard sale because of the distances between homes in rural areas.
