The World’s Longest Yard Sale



The Beginnings:


The concept of the World’s Longest Yard Sale in August is to pull people off the interstates and back into the heartland of rural, scenic America. The event encourages businesses and residents to participate by having yard sales, sidewalk sales and special promotions for a continuous stretch from one end of the sale route to the other. Once established, the end result is lots of fun for vendors and shoppers alike.

We have all heard the saying “One man’s junk is another man’s treasure.” That adage holds true as this event brings people together from all across the country and from around the world to barter and haggle over things that may have been stored in a garage or an attic somewhere for years. The pleasure we derive from rummaging through someone’s junk, hoping to find something unique and maybe even to stumble across an item worth a lot to you but the seller says, “I’ll take .50 cents for that.” What joy! Oh, and you get to meet some pretty neat people by the way.

We hope you take the time to travel the yard sale route. You will be glad you did. Discover the wond

The
World’s Longest Yard Sale
, also known as The 127 Yard Sale, is a junk shopper’s dream. It spans six states and is approximately
600 to 700 miles
long.

For a sale of this type, you need some
shopping tips from someone who has been to the sale
… and that’s me. I also have a list of favorite stops in each state.

The sale meanders along
Highway 127 through Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio
,
and Michigan.
The 2025 dates for the annual yard sale are August 7-10. Officially, the sale begins in Gadsden, AL, at Noccalula Falls Park and ends 5 miles north of Addison, Michigan. Over the years, the sale seems to have expanded in all four directions. 

Photos From The 127 Yard Sale



My friend Angie and I shopped the sale a few years ago, and it was fun but exhausting. So exhausting we only hit the sale booths on Friday. We asked one of the vendors to take the photo above. The gentleman was from Chicago.

We talked to vendors from Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Florida, and many other places this girl can’t remember. All of the vendors we met on the trip were super nice. 



The ground was quite soggy in places along the route. Accor
