<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 294637, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> I agree with most of the former posts. In our town if the signs are not removed with in 48 hours of the sale, the police remove them and you get a 25 dollar fine for each one. BETTER not to have an address on the sign!!!!!!! for that reason alone. One community here has the sale at the community center not at the houses. They do not want the cars running into everything and clogging the streets.</p><p> Have a staging area for packing. I REFUSE to pack anything. You have a large area with wrapping with boxes, newspapers and bags. I had several people show up with bags of broken items that I NEVER had for sale. They called the police and wanted refunds. I showed the police the staging area where they pack themselves. Case closed.</p><p> Remember to HAVE A BLAST WITH YOUR SALE, never clause yourself to become depressed.
