Yard Sale Help?

Question

Im having a yard sale this weekend and i couldnt find any tables. Does anyone have any ideas what to use instead of tables.? Thank you.

Answer 1

do you have a rental place in your town??

if so just call them

Answer 2

spread some blankets on the grass

Answer 3

Some have laid blankets out on their lawn and just place everything on them, or boards on boxes, overturned boxes and chairs.  We put an old door up on boxes once but not everyone has an old door laying around.

For clothes I used bungee cords from the tree to the porch rail or use an ironing board so you can lay them out on it plus you can hang clothes on hangers from the edge of it.

Answer 4

If you have any ply -wood put some thing sturdy under neth it and cover the top with a thin sheet.Look in your garage to see what would hold up, maybe a indoor dining table if its your last resort. I had the same problem this was my solution. good luck on your sales.

Answer 5

I use a step ladder to hang clothes.  If you have to trees near each other you could tie some clothsline or rope between the two.  As for surfaces to lay things.  Use blankets or old vinyl tableclothes.  We have used sawhorses and plywood or old doors as tables.  You could also use four kitchen chairs and a piece of plywood or a door, just put one chair under each corner.  Have you asked you neighbors if they have any tables you could borrow?  I've also used a large cardboard box fliped over as a table surface before.  I've also seen people use the hood of a car or a truck bed for a selling surface.  Hope you make a lot of $$$.

Answer 6

Put things on the ground on sheets/blankets.  Board across sawhorses/blocks/other stacked up things.
