This is the Mac Daddy of West Philly porch sales. Actually, it’s more of a warehouse sale. The organization Penn Moves is once again collecting all of the stuff departing Penn students would otherwise leave behind – on the sidewalk or in the dump – and selling it for charity.

OK sure, so there might be too many mouse pads and God knows how many pairs of Uggs, but there could always be a hidden gem behind that tiny little refrigerator.

This year the sale will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on June 4 at a warehouse Penn owns at 3401 Grey’s Ferry Ave (see map below). You can get in for a sneak peak at 8 a.m. for $5.

Goodwill Industries International Inc. will handle the sorting and transportation of the myriad items students donate, which range from cocktail dresses to cocktail sauce and coffee makers to coffee tables. One striking image at last year’s sale at the Class of 1923 Arena was a wall of microwaves.

All the proceeds from the sale go to Goodwill. Last year that was $22,000.

Penn Moves will collect items through May 18 near college houses and through May 31 at Sansom Place  (3600 Chestnut St.)
