DEARBORN – The city now offers a new feature intended to help residents advertise and for anyone interested to locate the garage and estate sales within the city limits. This service is available year-round for sales that also take place indoors.
Sellers have the option of advertising their garage sale on the city’s website for $10. It will be posted in the form of a Google map with the location of the garage sale highlighted and information about the items available.
The map can be found on the homepage of the city’s website, www.cityofdearborn.org, and at https://tinyurl.com/2ku34tce.
A permit must be obtained from the City Clerk’s Office in order to host a garage sale, and it is valid for up to three consecutive days.
Residents may hold a maximum of four garage sales per year. The cost is $10 for the first permit, $15 for the second, $20 for the third and $25 for the fourth within the same calendar year.
Public Service Days may cause parking issues for potential customers who may not know that it is that neighborhood’s Public Service Day.
A printable application form can be obtained online at https://tinyurl.com/3fuxt9k7. This form can either be mailed to the Clerk’s Office or dropped off from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
