Garage sales permitted

Lloydminster, AB/SK – Residents wanting to host yard and garage sales are reminded that the public health order and public health measures still apply.

To ensure the traditional spring and summertime sales operate safely, the Government of Saskatchewan has provided the following guidelines.

Sellers

  • Group sizes cannot exceed what is allowable in the current Public Health Order.
  • Do not host an event if feeling sick/unwell.
  • Wash hands often and consider providing an alcohol-based Health Canada approved (DIN or NPN) hand sanitizer for all attendees.
  • Maintain a physical distance of two metres between individuals. Signs that promote two-metre physical distancing between attendees should be posted.
  • Sales should be held outdoors or, at a minimum, in a well-ventilated area such as a garage with opened doors and windows.
  • Sales are to be hosted by a single family. Group events are not permitted at this time.
  • Clean and disinfect tables and sale items prior to the sale. Tables and other frequently touched items, including sale merchandise, should be cleaned and disinfected throughout the day.
  • Clothing or other fabric items should be laundered prior to sale.
  • Minimize physical contact with attendees.
  • Do not provide food and beverages – complimentary or for sale.
  • For cash transactions, ensure hands are washed or sanitized after handling money. Accept cashless payment if possible.
  • Where the seller agrees with the buyer to have an item picked up (i.e. larger items needing a larger vehicle for transport) outside the garage sale hours, the same precautions are to be taken during pickup.

Buyers

  • Gathering sizes must not exceed the current limits as per the Public Health Order.
  • Do not visit garage or yard sales if you are feeling unwell.
  • Practise frequent hand hygiene and bring with you a supply of alcohol-based Health Canada approved (DIN or NPN) hand sanitizer.
  • People should visit sales individually wherever possible. Always maintain a physical distance of two metres between oneself and other non-household members.
  • Avoid handling items and objects for sale unless necessary.
  • Clean and disinfect purchased items where possible. Launder clothing and fabric items.

The Government of Saskatchewan permitted the resumption of garage and yard sales in July 2020.
