LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
The biggest yard sale in southeastern Kentucky begins August 31 and runs through Labor Day September 3.
The 13th annual East 80 Yard Sale starts on East Fourth Street and continues on Ky. 80 to Manchester in Clay County for more than 22 miles.
Anyone who owns property along the route is encouraged to participate by offering yard sale items in hopes of making this the biggest yard sale the area has ever seen.
There are also sales on the side roads along east 80.
Sellers are asked to place yard/garage sale signs where they are visible enough for cars to have plenty of room to signal and stop.
This is an extremely busy road during the yard sale. If you pass a sale, turn around and go back. Use turn signals and give plenty of warning when turning. Please bring small bills, especially in the mornings, so change can be made easily.
Traffic is expected to be heavy. Because of the number of people the sales draw, safety is a big issue. Anyone traveling along east Ky. 80 be patient, drive slowly, make no sudden stops and above all, use turn signals.
