Adams Morgan Residents Sign Up for The Mother of All Yard Sales coming this May

“Dear PoPville,

It’s that time of year again!

This year’s The Mother of All Yard Sales will be held on Saturday, May 17. It’s the region’s oldest (since 1987!) and biggest (40+ homes!) community yard sale, held each year in Adams Morgan (and only in Adams Morgan).

It’s free to participate. You just sell stuff in front of your home, and shoppers navigate between sales using an online neighborhood map. All we ask of participants is that they help spread the word, recruiting more sellers and shoppers!

Please let me know if you live in Adams Morgan and are interested in selling stuff this year.

If so, please send me ([email protected]) all this info, in this format:
– your name
– your address
– your email
– your phone number

If you would like the wonderful B-Thrifty charity truck to stop by after the sale and pick up your unsold items (tax-deductible, benefitting neighborhood healthcare champion Mary’s Center), you yourself must sign up directly for a truck pickup. But it’s easy! Just go to 

https://www.mcdonationpickup.org/schedule-a-pick-up/ and fill out the form—but be sure to say “The Mother of All Yard Sales: May 17” under “Donation Description.”

Be sure to let your neighbors know about how easy it is to sell stuff as part of The Mother of All Yard Sales.  Please forward this email to any smaller email lists/listserv for your apartment building, your street, your block, etc. so they can sign up too. The more the merrier!

Thanks as always! Looking forward to it!”
