We specialize in McAllen by automatically listing all city-permitted garage sales. This ensures our listings are legitimate and up-to-date. We also offer unique features like route planning and premium options for an enhanced experience.

You can browse listings without an account. However, to save favorite sales, use the route planning feature, or list a sale (if manual submissions are enabled in the future), you will need to sign up and log in.

We strive to update our listings as soon as new permit data is available from the City of McAllen. Sellers with premium accounts can also provide real-time updates to their listings.

Currently, McAllen Garage Sales is a web-based platform, fully responsive and accessible on all devices (desktops, tablets, and smartphones). We are considering developing a dedicated mobile app in the future.
