This weekend beginning Friday, September 5 through Sunday, September 7, is yard sale weekend. What a great time to sell unwanted items before we enter the busy holiday season. The weather should be nice too.

I enjoy yard sales. I seem to always find knick-knacks that I gotta have. Keeping an eye out for collectible depression glass, milk glass, and vintage bar ware is a regular thing for me. Pomona is a great place to find those types of items and more without having to go to the antique district over on 2nd St.

Below are some do's and dont's about having a yard sale in Pomona. The information is taken from the city web site.

• Citywide yard sales are only allowed a few times per year without permit or fee requirements.
• Yard sales can begin as early as 8 a.m. and run no later than 8 p.m. Residents must also adhere to the following guidelines:
• Items for sale must be used goods and wares of a household nature (from your household) and not purchased elsewhere for resale.
• Two signs are permitted (per household) and must be posted on private property and promptly removed after the sale days.
• Signs may not be posted on public property such as telephone poles, streetlights, traffic signs or City trees.
• Violation of the City’s yard sale ordinance or posting illegal signage on public property may result in a citation and fine.
