Welcome to the MV Big Flea


The MV Big Flea is a fundraiser that benefits the Mt Vernon Community School PTA. Proceeds are used for things such as field trips, enrichment activities, special events, computers, musical instruments, and art and classroom supplies. We take your unwanted household items and furniture and turn them into cash for our school. All donations are tax-deductible.

After a hiatus in 2023, we’re back with a reimagined Big Flea. Instead of a huge sale at the MV Rec Center, this year we’re doing something different: a coordinated community yard sale hosted in various yards across Del Ray. We will take your donations on the morning of the event and turn around and sell them–all proceeds benefit the MVCS PTA.

MAIN EVENT:

Saturday, April 13, 2024, from 8:30 am-12 pm at various yards in Del Ray.

Also on April 13, make sure you check out the Del Ray Vintage & Flea Market and the Warwick Village Mega Yard Sale!!

Detailed schedule of the day:

  • 7 am – volunteers arrive at the yard sale locations
  • 7-8 am – Donations arrive and volunteers set up sale
  • 8:30 am – sale starts – no early birds!
  • 12 pm- sale ends
  • 12-2 pm – everything is free but donations suggested & appreciated
  • 2-3 pm – volunteers move unsold items to curb and post curb alerts

DONATIONS: Unlike previous years, we are only taking donations the morning of the event. Learn more about what you can and cannot donate.

FRIENDS OF THE FLEA: The Big Flea wouldn’t come to you without the support of local businesses and individuals. If you’d like to support the Flea through an in-kind or monetary donation, please contact mvbigfleadonations@gmail.com.
