A Browser-Based Gsalr Alternative

If you want to find garage and yard sales without installing anything, Get Garage Sales works in your phone's browser: browse the garage sale map, narrow to today or this weekend, save the sales you like, and send up to four stops to Google Maps in the order you choose. Gsalr is a long-running map site with city pages, favorites and route directions in the browser, plus optional iOS and Android apps linked from its site.

Gsalr alternative FAQs

Does Get Garage Sales cost anything to browse or post?

No. Viewing the map, date pages, saved sales and route planner is free, and posting a garage sale is free too. Gsalr also advertises free listing on its list-garage-sale page and free account sign-up for favorites; check gsalr.com for any paid upgrades it may offer.

Do I need to download an app?

Not for Get Garage Sales — the map, today and weekend pages, saved sales and route planner all run in your browser. Gsalr publishes iOS and Android app store links on its site, but its How it Works walkthrough uses the website map and favorites list.

Can I post my own garage sale free?

Yes on Get Garage Sales: use the free post form so your sale can show on the local map with photos and hours. Gsalr's homepage and list-garage-sale page also say sellers can list a sale for free there.

How do I plan a route?

On Get Garage Sales, save sales you like, then on sale day import up to four eligible listings into the garage sale route planner, set the stop order with Up/Down, and open that sequence in Google Maps. On Gsalr, its How it Works page says you add sales to Favorites, then use View Route & Directions for turn-by-turn directions between stops.

The map only shows sales that sellers have posted here, so coverage depends on what has been posted near you. Pick your city and radius on the map; if it is quiet, widen the radius or check this weekend's listings. We make no claim that either service lists every sale in your town.
