The Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale

CANCELLED DUE TO COVID VIRUS

The Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale is early this year on Saturday May 30th.  Mark your calendars and remember to sign up soon if you plan to have a sale that day.  Please remember that we save you money by placing many ads about the Sale in newspapers and online. This helps draw a large crowd with people from all over WNY and Southern Ontario going to your sale!  Sign up soon to be included on the Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale Map of places having a sale that day.

Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale

The KVIS Public Properties Committee for many years invited various recycling organizations to come to Kenmore to collect residents unwanted items.  This initiative was successful, but as the Block Club Committee discussed recycling on each of their blocks, it became clear that a time to collect many items at one time could continue to impact how much of our unwanted items go to the landfill. 
(Video of Deb Gibson at the Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale.)​
We knew that some WNY communities had group garage sales that were successful, so the Block Club Committee decided to have what they named the Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale.  Each person participating has a sale at their home.  The purpose of the sale is three fold:
  1. To encourage people from all over the area, including Southern Ontario, to come to Kenmore and spend the day.  The Garage Sale Map, listing over 100 sale addresses, also includes valuable coupons and offers from area businesses to draw people to visit them as well. 
  2. To help each person participating in the sale have more people going to the sale while having increased sales volume.
  3. To give those who had a sale the ability to drop off their unwanted items in one convenient location following the sale.  These items are collected by a not-for-profit recycler.

We are partnering with Amvets this year to help in collecting unwanted items left over from the garage sales.  The truck will be on the Delaware Rd. side of the Village Green (the area in front of the Municipal Building) from 3:00-5:00 pm on Saturday May 30th.  Garage Sale participants and others are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to conveniently donate unwanted items at this time.  In the past, the Gigantic Garage Sale items filled the largest size truck freight trailer full of items donated by those Village residents who had participated in the sale.  After the last Sale, over 12,000 lbs of leftover Gigantic Kenmore Garage Sale items were donated! 

Those participating in the sale on May 30 th may bring their unwanted items anytime from 3:00 -5:00 pm  to the Amvets donation truck parked at the Village Green, Delaware Rd side.    ​

Garage Sale Map & List of Locations

Maps will be posted here on Friday the 29th.  For your convenience, the Garage Sale Map and List above is available as a pdf and a jpg.  The Treasure Hunt clues are included on the list.   Printed copies of the map will be available on sale day and from 9 am to 3 pm at the KVIS tent set up at the Village Green -the lawn at the point of Delaware Avenue and Delaware Road.
