How to orderSpecifications
Custom Yard Sale Signs print on 4mm corrugated plastic (also called Coroplast), a rigid, fluted plastic sheet with hollow channels that give the sign stiffness without adding weight. Direct UV ink cures instantly on the surface for a tough, scratch-resistant finish. These signs are built for short-term outdoor deployment: one day to several months, depending on how you store and reuse them.
- Material
- 4mm corrugated plastic (Coroplast).Rigid, waterproof, and lightweight. Holds up through rain, sprinklers, and moderate wind without warping.

- Direct UV print.Ink bonds to the surface and cures instantly, producing a smooth, scratch-resistant finish that handles direct sun.
- Color Output
- CMYK full-color.Four ink layers (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) reproduce any color in your design, including photos and bold text.
- Finishing
- H-stakes or grommets.H-stakes are standard for ground-level yard sale deployment. Grommets suit fence or post zip-tie mounting.

4mm Corrugated Plastic Printed With Direct UV Ink
Corrugated plastic runs 4mm thick on every sign we print. It's a rigid, lightweight fluted sheet, fully waterproof, similar in structure to cardboard but built for outdoor use. Direct UV ink cures instantly on the surface, so colors stay crisp through a full day of sun, rain, and foot traffic without smearing or washing out. That matters for a yard sale sign because your window is one morning. You can't afford a sign that bleeds in a drizzle or fades by noon.
Sharp text. Bold arrows. Done before lunch.
Directional Arrow Layouts in Sets of 3 to 5
Yard sale sign sets run 3 to 5 signs per order. One sign goes at the sale address, and the rest sit as directional arrows at nearby intersections. This layout guides shoppers from up to 3 turns away without them needing to call you for directions. Most buyers choose 18x24 in signs for busier roads and 12x18 in for quieter residential streets where drivers are moving slower.
H-Stakes Included, No Tools Needed
Wire H-stakes ship with every order at no extra charge. Each stake is shaped like the letter H and slides directly into the corrugated plastic flutes. Push them into soft lawn or soil in seconds. You can deploy a full set of 5 signs in under 10 minutes the morning of your sale, with zero tools and no hardware store stop on the way.
And when the sale wraps up, pulling them out is just as fast.
Customer reviews
Ideal for
Not the best fit for
Permanent outdoor signage. Corrugated plastic holds up 3 to 6 months of continuous outdoor exposure before it degrades. Metal Signs on .040 aluminum last 5 or more years outdoors and are the right call for anything meant to stay up long term.
Wall-mounted or building-mounted displays. Yard sale signs need ground-level H-stake placement, not wall surfaces. Metal Signs, Acrylic Signs, or Business Signs handle wall mounting correctly.
Large-format event banners that hang from a fence or building facade. Custom Banners with grommets are built for that mounting situation.
How to choose
Use these buying points to choose the right Custom Yard Sale Signs configuration.
-
Picking the Right Size for Your Sale Type
Sign size comes down to how fast traffic moves past your corner. Go with 12x18 in for residential streets where drivers move at 15 to 20 mph and have a full second or two to read your sign. Jump to 18x24 in for any busier road where drivers pass at 25 mph or faster and need to catch your message from 25 to 35 ft away.
The short answer: if you're unsure, 18x24 in covers both situations and gives your text room to breathe. Pick your size in the configurator before uploading your design.
-
Single-Sided vs Double-Sided for Directional Signs
Single-sided printing works fine for a sign placed at a curb corner where all traffic approaches from one direction. Choose double-sided when your sign sits at a 4-way intersection and drivers approach from opposite directions on the same road. Most yard sale sets use a mix: double-sided at the first turn off a main road, single-sided for the final block pointing straight to your address.
-
How Many Signs to Order for Your Sale Layout
Count your turns, not your distance. Order at least 3 signs for a one-turn route from a main road to your address. Add 1 sign for each additional turn after that, so a 3-turn route typically needs 4 to 5 signs total.
One sign stays at your sale address, the rest go at nearby intersections. Build your set quantity in the configurator and check volume pricing at 5 or more signs.
-
H-Stakes vs Grommets for Your Mounting Situation
H-stakes (wire ground stakes that slide into the corrugated plastic flutes) are the right choice for every ground-level yard sale sign. They push into soft lawn or soil in seconds without tools.
Grommets are metal-rimmed holes punched into the sign edge. Use them only if you plan to zip-tie a sign to a fence or chain-link post rather than push it into the ground. Select your hardware at checkout before approving your proof.
Pair it with
Same-Day Directional Pairing
Custom Open House Yard Signs follow the same morning-deploy, same-day-retrieve pattern as yard sale signs. If you run estate sales or help clients stage open houses, ordering both sets together saves you a second trip through the configurator. Pair with: Custom Open House Yard Signs, Custom Real Estate Yard Signs.
Bold Coverage at the Sale Address
Your directional signs guide traffic to the address, but a large backdrop at the sale itself seals the deal. Custom Banners with grommets hang from a garage door or fence and read from the street while your yard signs work the nearby intersections. Pair with: Custom Banners, Custom Flags.
When the Job Outlasts One Day
Corrugated plastic holds up for 3 to 6 months of continuous outdoor use. If you need signage that stays up for years at the same address, .040 aluminum is the right next step. Pair with: Metal Signs.
Sidewalk-Level Attention at the Sale Location
An A-Frame sign at the end of your driveway adds a second layer of ground-level messaging right where foot traffic slows down. Pair with: A-Frame Signs.
FAQs
Will My Signs Arrive Before My Sale Date?
Standard production runs 1 to 2 business days after you approve your digital proof. Signs ship flat with H-stakes bundled. Order before 12 PM EST and production starts the same day. Rush production is available if your sale date is tight.
Can I Reuse the Same Signs for a Second Sale Later in the Year?
Yes, and the material holds up well between uses. Corrugated plastic is rated for 3 to 6 months of continuous outdoor exposure, but a one-day deployment barely touches that limit. Store your signs flat and dry after each sale, not leaning at an angle, and the same set typically runs 2 or more sale cycles without visible fading.
Do H-Stakes Come Included, or Do I Order Them Separately?
H-stakes ship with every order at no extra cost. Each wire H-stake slides directly into the corrugated plastic flutes and pushes into soft ground in seconds. No tools needed. Pull them out at the end of your sale day and store them dry so they don't rust between uses.
What File Format Do I Need to Upload for My Yard Sale Sign Design?
We accept PDF, PNG, JPG, and AI files. Set your file to CMYK color mode at 300 DPI for any sign under 18x24 in. Include a 0.25 in bleed on all sides and keep your main text inside a 0.5 in safe zone from each edge. Our team reviews every file before sending your proof and flags any resolution or bleed issue before we print.
Will the Directional Arrow Print Clearly Enough to Read From a Moving Car?
UV ink cures directly on the corrugated plastic surface and produces a scratch-resistant finish that holds color through a full day of sun and rain. But print quality alone isn't enough. Keep your primary text to 7 words or fewer and use a minimum 3 in letter height. Go with high-contrast colors (dark text on a light background, or white on dark) so a driver at 25 mph catches your arrow in under 2 seconds.
Get your artwork right
Yard sale signs get read from moving cars at 15 to 25 mph, so your file setup matters more than most buyers expect.
- Accepted formats
- PDF, PNG, JPG, AI. Vector files (AI or PDF) are best for logos because they scale to any size without softening.
- Resolution
- 150 DPI minimum, 300 DPI recommended for signs under 18x24 in where a reader is within 10 to 20 ft.
- Bleed
- 0.25 in on all sides. Anything outside the bleed line gets trimmed.
- Safe zone
- Keep all text and logos at least 0.5 in from each edge so nothing clips at the cutter.
- Color mode
- CMYK, not RGB. CMYK matches how we print, so the colors you see on screen come out as expected on the sign face.
Here's the thing about text size: keep your primary message to 7 words or fewer and use a minimum 3 in letter height. That's the threshold for reading from 30 ft away.

Care instructions
Product care
- Push H-stakes into soft ground (lawn, garden bed, or loose soil) the morning of your sale. Slide the sign into the H-stake channels and check that the face points toward oncoming traffic before you leave each location. No maintenance is needed during the sale day. Corrugated plastic handles rain, sprinklers, and moderate wind without warping or losing color.
- Pull H-stakes at the end of the day. Wipe the sign face with a damp cloth if dirty, then store signs flat and dry between uses. Do not lean them at an angle against a wall, which causes warping over time.
- Worth knowing: H-stakes rust if left in wet ground between sale cycles, so pull them after every deployment and store them dry. Replacement stakes are available if yours wear out.
