- Big buys: Ranch hands cart larger pieces and help load your vehicle. Some guests pull trailers.
- Where you sleep matters: A reclaimed-wood table does not fit in a sedan or a hotel room. The table below shows which of our Sheridan homes can take a garage or a trailer.

- Moving blankets and packing help: We keep moving blankets to wrap furniture and mirrors, and can help you pack fragile pieces for the ride home.
- Truck and trailer help for big finds: For larger pieces, we can offer a truck or trailer and an extra pair of hands loading it, depending on what's available that weekend.

Thursday, Sept 16
Land in Sheridan
Check in, eat a real dinner and sleep. You skip the early road start and reach the gate rested.
Friday, Sept 17
Go early, eat first, then shop
Friday has first-pick inventory and the biggest crowds. In 2026 the gates ran 10 am to 6 pm. Eat in the food field before the wares so you shop patient.
Friday evening
Mint Bar on Main Street
Much of the crowd migrates downtown after the gates close. The Mint Bar has been running since 1907.
Saturday, Sept 18
Slower, more conversational
Vendors shift slightly between days. Saturday is relaxed and good for the booths you missed.
