How to Prep for a Community Garage Sale (and What to Toss)
Summer is the perfect season for a community garage sale. The sun is out, foot traffic is high, and everyone’s looking for a good deal—or the chance to finally declutter. Whether your neighborhood is organizing a large group sale or you’re hosting one on your own, preparation is key. And one thing many sellers forget to plan for – what to do with everything that doesn’t sell. That’s where Bin There Dump That Dumpster Rentals comes in. With a clean, residential-friendly dumpster in your driveway, cleanup is easier, faster, and way less stressful.
Decluttering Starts Early
A successful garage sale starts long before the signs go up. Start combing through your home—closets, basement, garage, attic, and shed—for items you no longer use. Create three piles: sell, donate, and toss. That old dresser missing a drawer? Toss. The five boxes of outdated holiday décor? If it hasn’t sold in previous years, toss it. Sorting everything ahead of time will help you stay organized and make the event go smoothly.
Many families find this is the perfect time to finally clear out storage bins that haven’t been touched in years. With a dumpster onsite, you’ll be more motivated to purge without worrying about how or where to haul the junk.
Don’t Let Leftovers Linger
When the garage sale ends, you’re still left with unsold items—and nobody wants to drag that stuff back inside. A dumpster rental lets you toss those lingering leftovers immediately. Broken chairs, warped shelving units, old mattresses, outdated electronics, or stained clothing? Into the dumpster they go. Even items that charities won’t accept can be tossed without worry.

Make It a Neighborhood Effort
If your block is hosting a community sale, consider sharing a dumpster with a few neighbors. It’s a simple and affordable way to ensure everyone can clear out their clutter and wrap up the weekend without extra hassle. You might even find that the dumpster becomes a central gathering point for quick cleanouts after the sale.
