Community Garage SaleWith the growing interest in recycling, reuse, and disciplined family spending, many households are likely looking for affordable opportunities such as the Des Plaines 5th Annual Community Garage Sale. This year’s sales will be held the first and third weekend of May, May 1-3 and May 15-17, 2009.

Households in zip code 60018 may host garage sales from Friday, May 1, 2009- Sunday, May 3, 2009, while those in 60016 may host their sales Friday, May 15, 2009-Sunday, May 17, 2009. In case of heavy rain on one or both weekends, a rain date has been set for May 29–31, 2009. Participating households will have the $6 garage sale permit fee waived on these dates only.

Prudential Starck Realtors, 300 W. Golf Rd., will again promote the sale and provide garage sale signs (limit 2) to interested residents 847-255-3900. Garage sale signs will only be allowed on private properties and parkways. Signs are not allowed on utility poles, street signs, or city right-of-ways.
