This year’s sale is set for Saturday, June 10, 2017, from 7:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Your house will be listed on the map of yard sale homes. Here are a few other details to keep in mind:
Yard Signs: Beginning May 26th, yard signs will again be available to purchase or rent for $5. Residents or churches that participated last year and kept their signs may re-use them. Participants who need signs can pick them up by paying a refundable deposit of $5. The deposit will be refunded after the yard sale, if the signs are returned in good condition, or you can choose to keep your sign for future use in lieu of a refund.
Sign Pick-Up: Signs may be picked up at the Ferguson Community Center on Saturday, June 3rd, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Signs also may be picked up at City Hall, 110 Church Street, May 28th – June 9th, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Payment must be cash or check, and only one sign per household will be available. If you pay by check, we will hold your check and return it to you when you return the sign.
Sign Refunds: Refunds of sign deposits will be available at City Hall Monday through Friday, June 12th – June 26th from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. No deposits will be refunded after June 26th. Signs must be returned in good condition, and only one refund per household will be given. Positive identification will be required for the refunds. Signs that were rented a previous year are not eligible for a refund. Participating households are encouraged to take down their signs as soon as possible to prevent theft. If you paid by check, your original check will be returned to you. If you choose to keep your sign, your check will be deposited in early June.
Other Signs: We are not able to place signs at intersections of high traffic areas to lead people to your home. You may do so if you would like, but remember to remove them after the sale. Call and ask us if we have any extra signs you may use for this purpose.
Maps: On June 8th after 5 pm, maps pinpointing participating yard sale homes will be available online at www.fergusoncity.com and also at Paul’s Market at 1020 N. Elizabeth. Starting at 7:00 a.m. on June 10, maps may be picked up at Ferguson Farmers’ Market and at Paul’s Market at 1020 N. Elizabeth Street when they open.
Inclement Weather: The event will not be rescheduled in the case of rain. Each household can individually decide if they are willing and able to hold their sale despite the weather.
