Yard sales near me
Sale Scout maps every yard sale, garage sale, and estate sale posted near you — with addresses, hours, photos, and what's actually for sale. Filter by today, tomorrow, or this weekend, set a 5, 10, 25, or 50 mile radius, and plan a driving route before you leave the house.
How to find yard sales this weekend
- Open the live map and allow location so nearby sales sort by distance.
- Pick a date filter — Today, Tomorrow, This weekend, or the next 7 days.
- Set your radius: 5 miles for a quick morning, 25–50 for a full hunting day.
- Open the sales worth the drive, skim the photos and item categories, and save them.
- Send your saved stops to the route planner so they're ordered by driving distance, not guesswork.
Types of sales you'll find
Yard sale
The classic driveway or lawn sale — mixed household goods, cash only.
Garage sale
Same idea, run out of the garage. Usually one household.
Estate sale
A full household being cleared. Deepest inventory, furniture and tools.
Moving sale
Priced to go before a move date — best late-day bargains.
Community sale
A whole street or subdivision on one morning. Best stops-per-mile.
Rummage / church sale
Organized, volunteer-run, very low prices.
Flea market
Recurring, multiple vendors, often weekly.
Five things that make a better haul
- Go early, then go late. First 30 minutes for selection, last hour for discounts.
- Carry small bills. Ones and fives make lowball offers land far better.
- Plan a loop, not a list. Group sales by neighborhood before you leave the driveway.
- Check the photos. Listings with photos tell you whether the drive is worth it.
- Ask what's not out. Sellers often have boxes in the garage they haven't unpacked.

Hosting your own yard sale
Posting takes about a minute: address, date, start and end time, a title, and the categories you're selling — tools, furniture, electronics, kids' gear, clothing, collectibles. Add up to 10 photos and share the listing straight to your neighborhood group. Listings hide themselves automatically once the sale ends, so nobody drives out to a sale that's already over.

How do I find yard sales near me?
Open the Sale Scout map, allow location access, and pick a radius of 5, 10, 25, or 50 miles. Every sale posted in that area shows its address, hours, photos, and item categories. Filter by Today, Tomorrow, or This weekend to see only sales that are actually open when you can go.
What days are yard sales usually held?
Most yard sales run Friday through Sunday morning, with Saturday from 7am to noon being the busiest window. Estate and moving sales often start Thursday and mark items down each following day.
Are yard sale listings free to post?
Yes. Posting a yard sale on Sale Scout is free and takes about a minute — address, date, time, title, and item categories. Photos are optional but sales with photos get browsed far more often.
What is the difference between a yard sale and a garage sale?
They are the same thing in practice — the name just varies by region. Sale Scout also covers estate, moving, community, rummage, church, and flea market sales, so you can filter to the type you want.
What is the best time to arrive at a yard sale?
Arrive in the first 30 minutes for the best selection, or in the last hour for the best prices — sellers would rather discount than repack.
