Frequently asked questions:

Is there a rain date? No. The sale will be held rain or shine.

Why pay to be on the map?  Over the last three years, we have found that our town-wide sales attract shoppers from across NJ, NY, and PA. We promote the sale (and the map) in local media and on popular garage sale sites.

Can I have a sale without paying to be on the map?  Yes. Residents of the Chathams and Madison are welcome to hold sales on their own without registering.

Do I need to pay a permit fee to my town?  No. The permit fee for this event has been waived for residents of Madison and The Chathams. However, the $10 registration fee gets your address and list of sale items on the map.

Should I put up a sign if I’m on the map?  Yes. Signs will attract additional customers who are just driving by.

Who do I contact with questions?  Please direct all questions to the Environmental Commission of The Chathams and Madison at mec@rosenet.org
