Village of Westmont
Date Issued: May 1, 2014
Each year, the Village of Westmont and the Westmont Special Events Corporation (WSEC) organize a Community-Wide Garage Sale, which encourages residents to hold their garage sales during the same weekend to bring out the bargain hunters en masse. This year’s event will be held on Friday & Saturday, August 8 & 9. Participants are encouraged to start their sales at 8 a.m. and be finished by 5 p.m. No garage sale permit is necessary for this specific event on these dates.
“We typically have more than 100 participants hosting garage sales during the weekend,” says WSEC Office Manager. “Last year, we created an online form for the event and that has made everything very easy for participants to sign up.”
To sign up to participate, please click on the link below and fill out the form. Participants must sign up by Monday, August 4 to be included on flyers and in publicity created by the Village. A few days prior to the sale dates, printed copies of the sale addresses will be available at the Village Hall, Police Dept., Park District, Westmont Library, and Westmont Special Events at Westmont Centre.
