The Best Days and Times to Hold a Garage Sale

## Best days Friday and Saturday mornings are the gold standard. Friday catches serious resellers and retirees; Saturday brings the biggest general crowds. Multi-day sales (Thursday-Saturday or Friday-Sunday) catch both. ## Best hours Start at 7 or 8 AM. Early birds are your most motivated buyers. Traffic usually dies by 1-2 PM, so a 7 AM to 2 PM window captures most of the day's revenue. ## Best time of year Late spring through early fall. The first warm weekends of spring are huge — shoppers have been waiting all winter. Avoid holiday weekends when people travel. ## Check your local rhythm If your neighborhood or town holds an annual community sale weekend, join it. Shared traffic beats going alone.
