Vendor Guidelines – 2026
The Cokesbury United Methodist Church Community Yard Sale will be held on selected Saturdays. The Community Yard Sale is operated as a ministry of Cokesbury United Methodist Church.
John Jewell is the primary Point-of-Contact (POC) for the Cokesbury Yard Sale Team that operates the Yard Sale. The POC is available to answer questions or resolve issues and he or a designated POC can be found on the premises during the Yard Sale hours.
To make the Yard Sale profitable and enjoyable for everyone, vendors must abide by the following guidelines and policies. Anyone refusing to follow these guidelines or refusing to follow the direction of the designated POC will be asked to leave the premises and may be barred from returning later at the sole discretion of the POC.
- A vendor space is available at a prepaid cost of $25 per space. The Yard Sale begins at 8am and will end at 2 p.m. Vendors may arrive no earlier than 6:30am on the day of the Yard Sale for setup. Vendors must have all items packed and be cleared out of the church parking lot no later than 2:30 p.m.
- The church’s trash dumpster is not available for the disposal of unsold items and carrying containers and is not for use by Yard Sale vendors. You must remove everything that you bring onto the church property. Any vendor using the dumpster will be subject to a fine of $100.
- **Spaces may not be saved or reserved by any means other than the online Cokesbury Sign Up Genius form or as specified by the designated POC.
