You do not want to miss this opportunity to sell items for hard cash that you no longer use and are taking up space in your garage or closet. It also is a time to visit and get to know your neighbors.
You must live in Red Mountain Ranch to sell items at this garage sale.
This year, we will have maps of Red Mountain Ranch included in a plastic bag attached to the sandwich boards at the entrances and major intersections of our community. Feel free to take one. Hopefully, this will help buyers to find your home and sale. In the past, many buyers have had a problem finding sellers or negotiating the streets of our community.
Our community garage sale is one of the largest in the Phoenix area. We had 182 homes selling items in 2013, which was an all-time record. We hope to have more sellers this year. This means you will have lots of customers buying your items.
Our garage sale brings thousands of customers to Red Mountain Ranch. The roads in our community were filled with buyers’ cars and trucks last year. Buyers love the bargains they find.
We do all the work, providing buyers for your items for sale.
Your $15 fee pays for the following:
- Banners at the three entrances to Red Mountain Ranch.
- Sandwich boards with maps of Red Mountain Ranch on the main roads in our community.
- An information packet, including instructions as to How to Do a Garage Sale, as well as signs and stakes.
- A liability insurance policy during the two-day sale to protect you and your buyers.
- Newspaper and email advertising.
- An email address, jaynwilliamson57@gmail.com, to answer your questions.
- A phone number to call:(818) 515-9398.
Our HOA has approved and reserved Nov. 8 and 9 for our garage sale. These dates are reserved for our sale only. Please do not have a sale without paying the $15 during our sale weekend. The Garage Sale will start for you on Friday and Saturday morning when you place your items for sale on your driveway or in your garage. Sellers start touring our neighborhoods at sunrise.
You can pick up your Garage Sale Information Packet at 6427 E. Raftriver St. (on the southeast corner of Raftriver Street and Redmont Drive) between 5 and 7 p.m., on Wednesday and Thursday, Nov. 6 and 7. This is the same location as last year.
If you would like to have your address included in the Garage Sale Information Packet, please mail your coupon and fee before our packet-publishing deadline of Friday, Nov. 1. You also can pay when you pick up your packet if you were unable to send in your $15 check on time.
The Red Mountain Ranch Social Club sponsors the garage sale. Our Social Club is not a part of, and is independent of, the Country Club and the HOA. We meet on the second Thursday of each month, except in December and June, July and August. We also have many social events, such as the spring and fall cocktail parties, as well as trips to see plays, etc. You are invited to attend our meetings as our guest. You do not have to be a member to attend.
