How to Advertise Your Garage Sale on Facebook

Where to post

1. Facebook Marketplace — create a Garage Sale listing with your date, time, and location.
2. Local garage sale groups — search your town name plus garage sale.
3. Your own profile and neighborhood groups.

What a great post includes

• Date, hours, and rain date
• General location (street or neighborhood — you can share the exact address the day before)
• Your best categories: baby items, tools, and furniture pull hardest
• Two or three photos of your best items

Timing

Post 3-5 days before the sale, then bump it the night before. Reply to every comment — engaged posts get shown to more people.
