Sherbrooke cancels big yard sale tour

Record Staff

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Sherbrooke is forced to cancel the Great Garage Sale Tour for the summer of 2020. The difficulty in enforcing the rules of physical distancing would make the activity impossible.With respect to garage sales organized by citizens outside of the tour, known as the Grande Tournée des ventes-débarras event, the City of Sherbrooke will suspend issuing garage sale permits until further notice. If possible, citizens are invited to keep their items until the 2021 season or wait until local organizations that buy and sell second hand wares are able to receive items. People who wish to dispose of certain objects are invited to consult the sorting tool at sherbrooke.ca/outildetri to determine the best place to do so.
