Citywide garage sale May 7

The Peabody Gazette-Bulletin will once again sponsor the annual citywide garage sale. The date chosen for this year’s event is May 7.

Deputy City Clerk Stephanie Ax said the city will sponsor spring clean-up the week following the annual garage sale.

“We try to tie the two events together to make it easy for residents to get rid of garage sale leftovers,” she said. “They can just box up what is left and haul it to the curb.”

For a small fee, the newspaper staff will create a map of garage sales that includes a description of merchandise, provide signs for official participants, and advertise the community event in larger area newspapers.
