What is The Great Brookland Yard Sale?
The Great Brookland Yard Sale is a day for Brookland residents to host concurrent yard sales. It’s a great way to sell, shop and meet your neighbors! The Brookland Neighborhood Civic Association organizes this event annually. This year to keep participants safe, we ask that everyone wear masks and practice social distancing.
When is it?
Saturday May 8th, 2021 from 9 AM until 1 PM (individual yard sale times may vary)*
* Rain date
Saturday May 15, 2021 from 9 AM until 1 PM
Where is it?
Sales are all over the neighborhood, in individual seller’s yards, businesses, and churches around the neighborhood. Check back in May for the map. Printed maps are available for pick up at Atlantic Electric on sale day.
How can I add my yard sale?
The deadline to sign up your yard sale is April 30, 2021. Sign up here!
Limited slots are available at 3 locations in the neighborhood: Atlantic Electric, Brookland Union Baptist Church, and Annie’s Ace Hardware. These outdoor spaces are for yard sales, vendors, businesses and non-profits. You provide your own table and chairs if you need them. To reserve a spot, sign up here.
No Truck Drop Off This Year
This year, we are encouraging folks to deliver donation items directly to Goodwill. We are not offering drop-off service at the Atlantic Electric location. We found in prior years that a full truck delivery to Goodwill was difficult and inefficient. We figure that if you want to load leftover items into your car and haul them to donation, it is more efficient to simply go directly to the Goodwill donation center. There is a Goodwill drop-off center located just a short drive away in Ft. Lincoln, 2200 South Dakota Ave NE. Learn more about how and when to make a donation to Goodwill. This donation center is open on Saturdays until 6:30 pm.
