Trash and Treasure
2022-06-04 09:00 - 16:00 (America/Toronto)
Trash and Treasure Town-Wide Yard Sale

Vankleek Hill’s Town-Wide Yard Sale. From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., but you know . . . the early birds get the best stuff, so plan to arrive early and bring a trailer! You’ll need it! Want to book a space along the town’s Main Street? Call 613-678-3327, and press zero to speak to Susanne. Please be prepared to prepay for your spot. The Review provides a ton of support for this event, which is brought to you by the Vankleek Hill Business and Merchant Association, which provides porta potties for everyone and pays to advertise it outside the region. (Note that all ad and printing support for T and T in The Review is donated to the BMA.)
What is Trash and Treasure?
It is a community-wide yard sale organized by the Vankleek Hill Business and Merchant Association since 2000. Homeowners, church groups and organizations in Vankleek Hill and from the region are the primary vendors working on their front lawns, driveways and porches. Local residents can invite friends and family to participate by bringing items to create a yard sale on their properties in Vankleek Hill. PLUS: Out-of-town vendors who have not yet made friends in Vankleek Hill can call 613-678-3327 to reserve a space for $25 along the town’s main street, where the Vankleek Hill Business and Merchant Association has reserved parking lots just for this purposes. Out-of-town vendors should bring their own tables, etc. Spaces are allotted on a first-come, first-served basis. Volunteers are on hand at 7 a.m. to collect the $25 fee. PLEASE NOTE: As of 2019, the former National Bank parking lot is NOT available to vendors! We have other spaces along the town’s Main Street and a few parking lots available to you!
Why does the Vankleek Hill Business and Merchant Association organize this event?
From the very beginning, the merchant association organized this event as a fun day, to bring people to Vankleek Hill for a fun day! All donations and proceeds from the event, including the small charge for vendor spaces, is used to offset the cost of advertising this event far beyond the Vankleek Hill community. The Review donates all advertising associated with this event.
What is the date?
The sale is always the first Saturday in June. This year the sale takes place on Saturday, June 4, 2022 and runs from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
What will happen if it rains?
The sale will continue rain or shine! There is no rain date for the sale. Vendors are encouraged to plan on using tarps or garages if there is rain in the forecast.
This event takes place RAIN OR SHINE. Where is Vankleek Hill?
The town-wide yard sale is held in the village of Vankleek Hill, but over the years, the sale has expanded and as you drive to town, you will see lots of yard sales along Highway 34 between Hawkesbury and Vankleek Hill. From Ottawa, follow Highway 417 to Exit 27 and head north into Vankleek Hill. Or: follow Highway 17 and take Cassburn Road at L’Orignal to get to Vankleek Hill. From Montreal, follow Highway 40 and take existing 17 at Barb Road and follow signs to get to Vankleek Hill. From Lachute, take Highway 50 or Highway 148, take the Grenville exit, cross the Long Sault Bridge to Hawkesbury and follow Highway 34 to Vankleek Hill. From Cornwall, take Highway 401 to Lancaster and follow Highway 34 to Vankleek Hill. Ideally, please keep your cars at home.
How do I register as a vendor?
There is no official registration, but vendors are advised to call 1-877-678-3327 to reserve your spot for $25 for the whole day.
Can I set up a table on the sidewalk in front of my business or another business?
Absolutely NOT! Vending on public property such as sidewalks, boulevards, roads, and parkland is illegal. Businesses locating in Vankleek Hill CAN hold a sale in front of their business but cannot block the sidewalk.
What about food sales?
There are several restaurants in Vankleek Hill and often, community organizations have kiosks selling bottled water, hot dogs or hamburgers.
What about public washrooms?
There are rented washroom facilities located behind the Windsor Tavern, located at 84 Main Street East. Watch for signs.
What are some tips for a successful garage sale?
Set up early so that you are prepared for those early birds! Price all your items, either individually or in groups (eg. books 25 cents). Display items on tables or in boxes according to type and/or price. Have a cash box or change apron with lots of coins for change. In the case of large items that can’t be carried away, an impromptu sales receipt can be drawn up with a deposit and an exchange of telephone numbers to hold the item until the traffic has dwindled and you can return with a vehicle to pick up your treasure.
Are there any regulations regarding the items I sell?
Health Canada has posted information for garage sale vendors on their Consumer Product Safety website. Please note that Trash and Treasure is about selling used items, not prepared food.
What about parking?
Parking is available “catch as catch can” in Vankleek Hill everywhere! If you must drive, kindly park your car and walk in the neighborhood rather than cruising in your car to reduce congestion. The amount of pedestrian traffic makes driving dangerous for everyone. If you’re a Vankleek Hill resident, try to park your vehicle off the street to make room for the many visitors we expect again this year.
Are there any designated no parking zones?
All the usual parking rules are in effect. Please check the posting of parking signs and ensure that you are not blocking a fire hydrant or driveway.
Are there ATM machines nearby?
Yes, on Main Street, right in the heart of the action: at Scotiabank and the former National Bank location (ATM only available for National Bank). Try to bring cash with you as these machines may empty out early during Trash and Treasure.
How can I keep my sales area tidy?
Homeowners! You can help us out. Please place a garbage can by the curb for litter. With the large crowds this event attracts, there can be a large amount of litter produced. At the end of the day, clean up around your property and ensure you don’t leave debris on the street. Shoppers – please hold on to your litter until you see a garbage can and then stash the trash. If you have leftover items that have not been sold at the end of the day, please DO NOT leave them at the secondhand store and DO NOT leave them at the CURB past 7 p.m. By that time, items that you have left at the curb for free should have been picked up by the after-hours scavengers. Please keep our community clean!
Rain or shine, buyer or vendor, have fun on June 4, 2022! If you have any questions that have not been addressed in this FAQ, please send an email to info@vankleekhill.ca Louise Sproule, Organizer, Trash and Treasure The Vankleek Hill Business and Merchant Association.
Qu’est-ce que Trésors et pacotilles?
C’est une vente-débarras à travers de la communauté organisée par l’Association des marchands de Vankleek Hill depuis 2000. Les résidents, les groupes d’églises et les organisations de Vankleek Hill et de la région offrent de la marchandise en vente devant leurs propriétés, entrées et vérandas. Les résidents peuvent inviter leurs amis et leur famille à participer en apportant des articles pour vendre sur leur propriété à Vankleek Hill. DE PLUS : Les gens de l’extérieur peuvent aussi participere en appelant au 613-678-3327 pour réserver un espace le long de la rue Main, où l’Association des marchands de Vankleek Hill a réservé des stationnements à cet effet, pour la modique somme de 25 $. Les vendeurs de l’extérieur devraient apporter leurs propres tables, etc. Les espaces sont attribués selon le principe du premier arrivé, premier servi. Des bénévoles seront sur place à partir de 7 h pour percevoir les frais de 25 $.
Pour quelle raison l’Association des marchands de Vankleek Hill organise-t-elle cet événement?
Le but premier de cet événement est d’attirer des gens à Vankleek Hill pour passer une journée amusante! Les profits de cet événement, incluant les frais pour louer un espace (le frais est 25 $), seront utilisés pour compenser les frais de publicité à l’extérieur de Vankleek Hill. The Review offre gracieusement la publicité pour cet événement.
Quand cet événement aura-t-il lieu?
La vente se tient toujours le premier samedi de juin. Cette année, la vente a eu lieu le samedi 4 juin 2022 de 9 h à 16 h.
Qu’arrive-t-il s’il pleut?
La vente aura lieu beau temps, mauvais temps! Il n’y a pas de date de pluie! Nous encourageons les vendeurs à planifier d’utiliser des bâches ou des garages s’il y a de la pluie dans les prévisions. Cet événement a lieu BEAU TEMPS, MAUVAIS TEMPS.
Où est Vankleek Hill?
La vente a lieu à travers du village de Vankleek Hill, mais, au fil des années, la vente s’est étendue aux environs, sur le chemin pour se rendre au village, le long de la route 34 entre Hawkesbury et Vankleek Hill. À partir d’Ottawa, suivez l’autoroute 417 jusqu’à la sortie 27 et tournez à gauche, vous dirigeant vers le nord pour vous rendre à Vankleek Hill. Ou : suivez la route 17 et tournez sur le chemin Cassburn à L’Orignal jusqu’à Vankleek Hill. De Montréal, prenez l’autoroute 40 vers l’ouest et prenez la sortie 17 vers le chemin Barb et suivez la signalisation vers Vankleek Hill. De Lachute, prenez l’autoroute 50 ou l’autoroute 148, tournez à la sortie de Grenville, traversez le pont du Long-Sault vers Hawkesbury et suivez la route 34 vers Vankleek Hill. De Cornwall, prenez l’autoroute 401 vers Lancaster et suivez la route 34 vers Vankleek Hill. L’idéal serait de laisser vos véhicules à la maison.
Comment puis-je m’inscrire comme vendeur?
Il n’y a pas d’inscription officielle, mais les vendeurs peuvent appeler au 1-877-678-3327 pour réserver un espace.
Puis-je installer une table devant mon entreprise ou une autre entreprise?
Absolument PAS! Il est illégal de vendre sur des propriétés publiques, comme les trottoirs, les boulevards, les chemins et les parcs. Les entreprises situées à Vankleek Hill PEUVENT avoir une vente devant leur entreprise, mais sans bloquer le trottoir.
Peut-on vendre de la nourriture?
Il y a quelques restaurants à Vankleek Hill et certaines organisations communautaires qui ont des kiosques où ils vendent de l’eau en bouteille, des hot dogs et des hamburgers.
Y a-t-il des toilettes publiques?
Il y a des installations sanitaires situées à 84 rue principale, au Windsor Tavern (dans le stationnement en arrière). Surveillez les affiches.
Comment assurer le succès de ma vente-débarras?
Installez-vous de bonheur afin d’être prêts pour les lève-tôt! Affichez le prix sur tous les articles, soit individuellement ou en groupes (p. ex., livres = 0,25 $). Étalez vos articles sur des tables ou dans des boîtes selon la catégorie ou le prix. Ayez une caisse ou un tablier avec beaucoup de menue monnaie. Si vous avez des articles de grande taille qui ne peuvent être transportés, soyez prêts à faire un reçu ou à accepter un dépôt. Échangez ensuite vos noms et numéros de téléphone afin de garder l’article jusqu’à ce que la circulation ait diminué et que l’acheteur puisse venir prendre possession de son trésor.
Est-ce qu’il y a des règlements concernant les articles à vendre?
Santé Canada a publié des renseignements sur son site Web à propos de la sécurité des produits. Prenez un instant et informez-vous.
Est-ce qu’il y a du stationnement?
Vous pouvez vous stationner un peu partout à Vankleek Hill! Si vous venez avec votre véhicule, veuillez le stationner pour ensuite marcher dans les environs plutôt que de demeurer dans votre véhicule et causer de la congestion. Les nombreux piétons rendent la conduite dangereuse pour tous. Si vous êtes un résident de Vankleek Hill, essayez de ne pas stationner votre véhicule sur la rue et faites de la place pour les nombreux visiteurs que nous attendons encore cette année.
Est-ce qu’il y a des zones de stationnement?
Toutes les règles de stationnement s’appliquent. Veuillez vérifier les affiches de stationnement et assurez-vous que vous ne bloquez pas les bornes d’incendie ou une entrée de cour.
Est-ce qu’il y a des guichets automatiques?
Oui, sur la rue Main, au coeur de l’action : la Banque Nationale et la Banque Scotia. Essayez d’apporter de l’argent comptant avec vous au cas où ces guichets seraient vides durant la Journée trésor et pacotille.
Comment puis-je garder ma surface de vente en ordre?
Attention, propriétaires! Vous pouvez nous aider. Veuillez placer une poubelle sur le bord du trottoir pour les ordures. Les foules peuvent produire de grandes quantités de déchets. À la fin de la journée, nettoyez autour de votre propriété et assurez-vous de ne pas laisser d’ordures dans la rue. Acheteurs/visiteurs : veuillez garder vos déchets jusqu’à ce que vous trouviez une poubelle où les déposer. Si vous avez des articles non vendus à la fin de la journée, veuillez NE PAS les laisser à la friperie et ne les LAISSEZ PAS sur le trottoir après 19 h. À ce moment, les articles que vous n’avez pas vendus et avez laissés sur le trottoir auraient été ramassés par des pilleurs. Veuillez garder notre communauté propre!
Beau temps, mauvais temps, que vous soyez acheteur ou vendeur, amusez-vous le 4 juin 2022! Si vous avez d’autres questions, veuillez envoyer un courriel à info@vankleekhill.ca Louise Sproule, organisatrice, Journée trésors et pacotilles Association des marchands de Vankleek Hill.
