Morro Bay’s annual treasure hunt is coming up in March and potential sellers are being urged to sign up today to get their bazaar on the official event list.
The 25th Annual City-Wide Yard Sale weekend is set for 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday-Sunday, March 20-22.
With well over 100 yard sales taking place that weekend, bargain hunters will get help with navigating the sales via an official yard sale list.
Morro Bay residents can sign up their sale for inclusion, email to: info@morrobay.org or call 805-225-7411, Ext. 2. Free to Morro Bay businesses and residents.
Give your name, address, email address and a brief description of items and days you will participate. Deadline to get on the list is 3 p.m. Friday, March 13.
Sponsored by the Tourism Business Improvement District’s/Visit Morro Bay, the City-Wide Yard Sale is a whirlwind of activity as bargain hunters crisscross the town trying to visit as many sales as they can. Traffic is crazy and drivers and pedestrians are advised to be watchful.
The TBID said, “The City-Wide Yard Sale is more than just a shopping event–it’s a longstanding tradition that showcases all of the best parts of what it means to be part of the Morro Bay community. Open to visitors and locals alike, this event truly aims to bring all types of shoppers and sellers together for a weekend of exploration and fun. So, whether you’re buying, selling, or simply enjoying the inviting atmosphere, this is definitely an event you won’t want to miss out on!”
Normally, the Yard Sale is held in conjunction with the garbage company’s Annual Spring Clean Up Week, but this year’s clean up week is set for Monday-Friday March 2-6.
That’s when Morro Bay Garbage Company customers can put extra trash out for free pick up with some “bulky” items requiring special notifications. MB Garbage customers should have already been notified of the Spring Clean Up Week via email, according to a company representative.
According to a post on the City of Morro Bay’s website, “Residents may place up to six additional 32-gallon size bags of trash at no charge. Residents may also place bulky items on the street for an additional charge and must contact Morro Bay Garbage at 805-543-0875 to schedule the pick up.”
With Spring Clean Up Week already passed, the Yard Sale Weekend should have nothing left but the best stuff, right?
