Once a year, households all across Hopewell Township hold yard sales on the same Saturday. The Hopewell Township Yard Crawl is organized by the township (Aliquippa post office, Beaver County, Pennsylvania): residents sign up their address, the township publishes the full list, and for one morning the whole community turns into one big, scattered sale. The 2026 edition runs Saturday, July 25, from 8 AM to 2 PM.
Unlike a highway yard sale strung along one road, a township crawl is a grid, not a line. This year's list has 123 participating households spread across the township — north toward Brodhead Road, south past Independence, and through the neighborhoods in between. That's the opportunity and the challenge: there's a lot to hit, but it's everywhere at once. The trick is reading the map and building a loop, not driving back and forth across the township all morning.
And there's more to the day than driveways: the crawl runs alongside a craft and bake sale and a food-truck rally, so it plays like a community day as much as a sale. Printed maps are handed out on the morning at C&I Hardware and A'Brewed Awakening on Brodhead Road.

How the yard crawl works
The township coordinates the day but doesn't run the sales themselves — those are ordinary households clearing out garages, closets, and basements. Residents who want to be on the community map sign up their address ahead of time, and the township publishes the complete participating-address list. That list is the real product of the day: it's how shoppers know where to go across a township this size.
The catch is that a raw address list is just that — a list, house number by house number, hard to plan from on paper. That's exactly what the map below solves: every participating household pinned, grouped by area, with the items each one is bringing out, so you can build a sensible loop instead of crossing the township five times. Browse the full list free, then map the smartest driving order and drive it.
Strategy — work one neighborhood at a time
A township crawl rewards a different plan than a highway event. There's no single route everyone follows; instead you're choosing which part of the township to work and in what order. Two simple rules carry most of the morning.
- Cluster by neighborhood. Don't chase addresses across the township as you spot them. Pick an area, hit everything there, then move to the next. A dozen sales within a couple square miles is a far better hour than four sales spread across Hopewell.
- Read the item lists first. Many households note what they're bringing out — tools, kids' and baby gear, furniture, clothes, decor. Sort by what you're actually after and route around those stops, so you're not walking every driveway to find the one with the tools.
Go early. With a single 8 AM–2 PM window, the best of it is on the tables first thing. Build your loop around the densest neighborhoods, start at the top of the map, and work down before the popular stops thin out by late morning.
A township crawl isn't a route — it's a map. The shoppers who do well don't drive more, they drive smarter: one neighborhood at a time, routed around what they actually collect.
What you'll find
Hopewell is a settled suburban township, and a community-wide sale like this turns over a lot of everyday household goods. Clothes for the whole family, furniture, and household items are the backbone of the day — the contents of dozens of homes being cleared or downsized at once.
Kids' and baby gear shows up in volume: toys, games, strollers, and outgrown clothes as families cycle through stages. It's one of the best reasons to hit a township sale early, since the good kids' items go fast.
Tools and garage goods come out of the established homes across the township, where years of accumulation get cleared in one go. And across the whole map you'll find the usual community mix — decor, kitchenware, books, jewelry, and holiday items, often underpriced because the seller is clearing a house, not running a booth. Watch for vintage glass and cookware mixed in with the everyday stuff.
Pro tips
- Work one neighborhood at a time. Group nearby sales and clear an area before moving on; it's the single biggest time-saver at a township-wide event.
- Route around your item lists. Many households note what they're bringing out — plan around the stops with what you collect.
- Start at 8 AM. One short window means first pick goes fast; the early hour is both cooler and busier.
- Bring small bills. These are front-yard sellers, not shops — cash, and plenty of singles and fives, keeps things moving.
- Grab a printed map too. C&I Hardware and A'Brewed Awakening on Brodhead Road hand them out on the morning; the live map here keeps the same list on your phone.
- Make a day of it. The craft and bake sale and the food-truck rally are worth building into your loop for a mid-morning break.
