Now is the time to shed. If you are able, save donations until Sunday, August 11. We will be able to pick up items for people during Aug. 11-15. However, if you are moving or pushed, Bonnie Rossi has made room in the building to store some items, even some larger ones, until the sale — starting now. Please don’t bring items early unless you have no alternative.
We take almost any items in good condition except clothing, outdated technology and protective gear, as well as items too heavy or bulky to handle and sell (e.g. exercise equipment). Check with Cee Pollard if you are not certain about an item.
One purpose of the yard sale is to help you shed responsibly. Take advantage — and help the Fellowship. UUFCC Yard Sale — shed responsibly, work the sale, get to know other UUs — and have fun! Have opinions about the sale? Interested in how it works? Interested in helping? Attend the Yard Sale zoom meetings. Contact Cee for more information.
