LINCROFT: Residents are encouraged to register as sellers for inclusion in a booklet that lists participating homes and items for sale.

RED BANK: Brought to life in 2008 by borough resident Audrey Oldoerp and redbankgreen, this event typically features at least 100 homes throughout town offering somebody’s treasure. Hosted since 2010 by the Friends of the Red Bank Public Library, the event is a fundraiser for that vaunted borough institution.

The yard sale, which features a detailed seller’s list and map available the night before, runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., with a rain date of Sunday. Maps will be available online (at the Friends Facebook page) Friday evening and on paper at Starbucks, No Joe’s and outside the library at 8 a.m. the day of the event.

Here’s the registration form for sellers, which is due May 1: RBTYS 2014 registration

FAIR HAVEN: The borough’s yard sale runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m, on May 3. Residents who wish to participate as sellers must acquire a $7 permit no later than noon on May 1. Blue balloons to identify participating homes will be available.

A list of participating homes will be available at borough hall on May 2 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.
