Columbia's weekend is a mix of auctions and Saturday sales. There's a fine-estates auction running multiple days downtown, an estate sale out in Coldstream, and a couple of yard sales for the early risers. Here's what's worth the drive.
1. Fine Estates & Consignment Auction (Downtown)
A multi-day fine estates and consignment auction in the 29201, running Friday through the following week. Auctions reward patience — preview the lots, set your max, and don't get caught bidding past it. Good for furniture, art, and the occasional sleeper.
Type: Auction Address: Columbia, SC 29201 Dates: Friday, June 19 onward
2. Estate Sales Supreme — Coldstream
A Saturday estate sale in the Coldstream area (29212), northwest Columbia. One-day sales like this clear fast, so treat it as a get-there-at-open situation rather than a leisurely afternoon browse.
Type: Estate sale Address: Coldstream, Columbia, SC 29212 Dates: Saturday, June 20
3. Garage Sale — Harbison (Saturday 7am)
A Saturday-morning garage sale near Harbison (29201), kicking off at 7am. Classic early-bird territory — the people who show up at 7 get the good stuff, and by 10 it's picked over. Worth it if you're already heading toward the Coldstream estate sale.
Type: Yard sale Address: Harbison, Columbia, SC 29201 Dates: Saturday, June 20 at 7am
4. Moving Sale (Downtown 29201)
A Saturday moving sale in the 29201. Moving sales tend to mean motivated sellers and household goods priced to disappear — furniture, kitchen, and the things people don't want to haul to the next place.
Type: Yard sale Address: Columbia, SC 29201 Dates: Saturday, June 20
