Have you been staring at that pile of “to-be-sorted" boxes in the garage for months? We’ve all been there. It’s easy to procrastinate on a yard sale when you feel like the only one on the block doing it.

That’s what Community Yard Sale Weekend is all about!

Save the Date!

This isn't one big swap meet in a parking lot—it’s much better. It is a synchronized neighborhood event where residents host their own independent sales right in their own driveways. By coordinating our dates, we turn Shaw Butte into a "must-visit" destination for local treasure hunters, ensuring more foot traffic for everyone.

1. Prepare: Start sorting your items! Price things clearly and gather some grocery bags for your customers.

2. Set Up: On Saturday and Sunday morning, set up your sale in your driveway or yard.

3. Sell: Host your sale your way. You keep 100% of your earnings.

4. Connect: Say hello to your neighbors and enjoy the community buzz!

Pro-Tip: Let us know if you’re participating so we can be sure to place a sign at the end of your block!

Why Participate?

• Strength in Numbers: A single yard sale might attract a few passersby. A neighborhood-wide event attracts professional pickers, collectors, and browsers from all over Phoenix who want to hit multiple stops in one trip.

• The Ultimate Procrastination Buster: Consider this your friendly "deadline." If you’ve been putting off decluttering, this is the perfect excuse to finally clear out the garage and make some extra cash.

• Neighborhood Spirit: There’s a unique sense of camaraderie in seeing your neighbors out on their lawns, swapping stories (and maybe even a few items) while enjoying the beautiful Arizona spring weather.

• Built-in Marketing: While you are responsible for your own setup, Shaw Butte Neighborhood Association will be spreading the word on social media and local community boards to help drive traffic to our streets.
