Selling at the Santa Cruz Garage Sale Weekend

Register free with the form on the city’s page; in 2026 it closed at 4 pm on the Thursday before the sale. Registered hosts get a kit from the city with signs and tips.

Shopping it

The city’s online Garage Sale Treasure Map lists every registered sale, sorted by neighborhood, and you can search it for things like tools or antiques.

Where this comes from

From City of Santa Cruz Public Works, Resource Recovery's own page and the city’s 2026 announcement, checked October 20, 2026. We don't run this sale. Dates, sign-up rules and fees change, and sales get moved for rain, so check the organizer's page before you go or sign up.
