Village of Montgomery Hosting Fall Community Garage Sale

The Village of Montgomery is pleased to announce that its Fall Community Garage Sale will take place on September 12th, 13th and 14th from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.  The fee to participate will be $10 per address.  

Registration forms are available at the Village Hall, 200 N. River Street in Montgomery and on the Village website atwww.ci.montgomery.il.us.  The registration form gives the option of participating on all three of the scheduled dates, or selecting specific days to participate.

The Community Garage Sale will be advertised in the Ledger-Sentinel and Beacon News.  Garage sale flyers will also be created featuring a map with all garage sale locations, plus a 15-word ad for each address describing the items for sale.  Maps will be available at the Village Hall and on the Village website starting September 9th.  The deadline to be included in the advertising is 4:30 p.m. on Friday, August 30th.

The dates for this garage sale were chosen to coincide with Montgomery’s Fall Clean-Up service that will take place the week of September 16th.  Unsold items from the garage sales can be disposed of free of charge on those dates.  Remaining items in good condition can be dropped off at the Salvation Army store at 1590 Douglas Road or the Goodwill store in the Ogden Hill Shopping Center at Route 30 and 34.

This event is sponsored by Montgomery’s Historic Preservation Commission.  The $10 participation fee will help support Settler’s Cottage on River Street.  For additional information, please call Debbie Buchanan at (630) 896-8080 ext. 1114.
