Por favor, ¿cómo se dice "garage sale" o "yard sale" en español?

Question

Especialmente en la primavera, cuando las personas limpian sus casas después el invierno, aquí en Canadá, muchas personas venden las cosas desechadas. Ponen las cosas en las mesas en su garaje o su camino de entrada o su césped. En inglés, decimos "garage sale" o "yard sale." ¿Cómo se dice "garage sale" o "yard sale" en español? Gracias.

Venta de garage.

¿venta de garaje? - pamirisitas, May 14, 2011

Si. Venta de garage. And Flea Market means "Pulguero" - 00a4c226, May 14, 2011

Answer 2

Coquito's "venta de garaje" sounds like a reasonable term. I personally don't know, because where I used to live in Spain, the majority of people live in flats, so garages hold dozens or hundreds or cars, and they are underground. People sell this stuff sometimes in "mercadillos" o "rastrillos" (jumble sales)

Mi diccionario da "flea market" como traducción de "rastrillo" y "mercadillo." Pero aquí, "a flea market" es una cosa diferente que una venta de garaje. Una venta de garaje es usualmente una venta privada (de una familia / una organización). - pamirisitas, May 14, 2011

The Spanish words refer to an arranged public space where people display anything they want (usually, 2nd hand stuff) for people to buy it. It is like a car boot sale in the UK, but without the cars. - lazarus1907, May 14, 2011

Answer 3

Here in the States we have also another kind of sale called "Estate Sale" where the entire contents of a house are put on sale. They are handled by people specializing in that kind of sales and are very popular.Personally I have found many treasures there.Is "venda de propiedad" a correct translation?

In Bermuda there is a Beagel Sale. This is a place where you can sell anything shaped like a trapezoid.
