Garage sales
The annual 2024 collective garage sales will take place on the weekends of June 8 and 9, and August 31 and September 1 and 2, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Just because an item isn’t any use to you anymore doesn’t mean it can’t be of use to someone else! Before throwing something out, think how it might be reused. Garage sales are a great way to find bargains and give your items a second life.
Community-wide garage sale
Every year, two city-wide garage sales are held over two pre-determined weekends. It’s the perfect opportunity to find bargains and chat with neighbours by either making the rounds of the sales or organizing your own. On these weekends, a permit is not required.
Individual garage sales
To hold a garage sale, you must obtain a permit from the Urban Planning, Permits and Inspection Department at a cost of $25 (limit of one a year). Sales can be held on Saturdays only, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., but can be postponed to the next day in the event of rain.
Print the application for a garage sale permit (in French only). Bring the completed form to the Urban Planning, Permits and Inspection Department to obtain your permit. Certain fees apply.
