Unofficial Instruction manual for Narberth’s Junk Week:

1. Pull all the stuff out of your basement;
2. Have a garage sale - get your neighbors to join in and make it a street-long sale;
3. Recycle items in good condition with your favorite charity; 
4. Put everything that’s left (see restrictions above) out on the curb for your neighbors to browse through. Cover the “good stuff” with a tarp if it looks like rain; 
5. Tour the neighborhood under the guise of "taking a walk" to see what good stuff your neighbors have.  (A dog is useful but not necessary for this.)
6. Leave whatever remains out there for the Borough to pick up.
7. *** And Remember *** Do NOT leave bikes, scooters, or other items you want to keep anywhere near the curb this week. You don't want any misunderstandings about what is up for grabs and what you intend to keep!
