Pierce County will host 6 'Junk in Your Trunk' garage sales this summer

Pierce County Parks and Recreation officials invite you to treasure hunt at scores of garage sales without driving all day by attending six ‘Junk in Your Trunk’ community events this summer.

A variation of the traditional garage sale concept, the event invites vendors to clear out their closets, basements, and storage units and sell those items from their vehicles between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. in the parking lot at Sprinker Recreation Center on the following dates: Sat., June 20; Sat., June 27; Sat., July 18; Sat., July 25; Sat., Aug. 1, and Sat., Sept. 12. Admission and parking are free for shoppers. Concessions will be provided by Murph’s BBQ & Catering. Spots for vendors to sell their items are limited to the number of parking spaces available (costs are $20 per car/truck/van/SUV; and $30 per RV/Camper/U-Haul/truck and trailer; reserve your spot online here or by calling (253) 798-4141). Sellers can donate any left over items to the Goodwill truck on-site after each sale.

Sprinker Recreation Center is located at 14824 C St. in Tacoma. More information about the event is available online here.
