Yard Sale!

One thing that normally doesn't come to mind when you think of a professional organizer is a yard sale organizer but many of us are! For anyone who has the privilege or heartache (depending on how you look at it) of hosting or working on a yard or garage sale knows it's a lot of hard work. Many people prefer or don't have the time to deal with the gathering of items for sale, organizing them, pricing them, and being the cashier involved with a yard sale. Let's not even mention the ADVERTISING of the yard sale! Are signs enough? Well in this day and age we have the internet on our side. There are a plethora of internet sites that post and host yard sale ads FOR FREE! For an example of one visit: yardsalesearch.com

What B Dexterous offers to prep and host a yard sale


  • Advertise the Yard sale (date, time, and place)

  • Organize the items for sale

  • Inventory the more expensive/profitable items (so you know what sold and for how much)

  • Tag items for sale (I do not price valuables or antiques but can recommend services that do)

  • Manage the sale the day of

  • Orchestrates the pick-up of the non-selling items to charity


If you didn't sell items at the yard sale that you really think you could get a good price for elsewhere, I do sell things on eBay for a small percentage + any incidental costs for listing and shipping the item.

For a yard sale I'm hosting next weekend visit Manassas Yard Sale for yardsaleserach.com's posting of this event!

  1. Good luck on your sale. I love shopping yard sales early in the morning. Maybe I'll come out.
