Prohibited Items Policy

No Yard Sale Prohibited Items & Services Policy

Effective Date: August 1, 2026

Our Commitment to a Safe Marketplace

No Yard Sale is committed to providing a marketplace where neighbors can confidently buy, sell, donate, and connect with one another.

Creating a trustworthy marketplace means establishing clear standards regarding the items, services, and advertisements that may be offered through the Platform.

This Prohibited Items & Services Policy explains what may not be listed, offered, advertised, donated, requested, promoted, or otherwise made available through No Yard Sale.

This Policy applies to:

• Marketplace Listings
• Donation Listings
• Service Listings
• Business and Marketer Accounts
• Advertisements
• Promoted Listings
• Messages used to facilitate transactions
• User-generated content
• Future marketplace features offered by the Platform

This Policy works together with our:

• Terms & Conditions
• Community Guidelines
• Payment & Wallet Policy
• Show Up Guarantee Policy
• Privacy Policy
• and other Platform policies.

Because laws and marketplace risks change over time, this Policy is not intended to be an exhaustive list of every prohibited item or service.

Prop Up Media LLC reserves the right to prohibit any item, service, advertisement, or activity that we reasonably believe presents legal, safety, security, operational, or reputational risks to the Platform or its users.

A Message from Norman

Hi neighbor!

Most people come to No Yard Sale looking for great deals—not dangerous surprises.

This policy isn't here to make buying and selling harder.

It's here to help protect our community.

If something is illegal, unsafe, deceptive, or puts people at unnecessary risk, it probably doesn't belong on No Yard Sale.

When in doubt...

Ask before you post.

1. User Responsibility

Every user is responsible for ensuring that the items, services, advertisements, and other content they submit comply with:

• applicable federal laws;
• state laws;
• local laws;
• these Community Standards;
• all No Yard Sale policies.

You are responsible for determining whether you legally own an item and whether you have the legal authority to sell, donate, advertise, or provide it.

Listing an item on No Yard Sale does not mean the Platform has reviewed, approved, or verified its legality.

2. Illegal Property

Users may not list, sell, donate, advertise, request, or facilitate transactions involving property that is illegal to possess, transfer, distribute, advertise, or sell.

Examples include:

• stolen property;
• property obtained through fraud;
• counterfeit currency;
• forged documents;
• fake identification;
• government-issued identification documents;
• unlawfully imported goods;
• illegally harvested wildlife products;
• illegal gambling equipment;
• illegal surveillance devices;
• any item prohibited by applicable law.

Attempting to disguise or misrepresent illegal property is itself a violation of this Policy.

3. Weapons, Firearms, and Explosives

To help maintain a safe marketplace, No Yard Sale prohibits Listings, Donations, Advertisements, and Services involving weapons or explosive devices.

Examples include:

• firearms;
• ammunition;
• firearm receivers or frames;
• firearm parts intended to create or modify firearms;
• suppressors or silencers;
• machine guns;
• privately manufactured firearms;
• ghost guns;
• explosive devices;
• grenades;
• military ordnance;
• bombs;
• bomb-making materials;
• fireworks;
• black powder;
• detonators;
• destructive devices;
• illegal knives;
• brass knuckles;
• weapon conversion devices;
• weapon-building services.

The Platform may prohibit additional weapons or weapon-related products even where possession may be lawful in certain jurisdictions.

4. Drugs, Controlled Substances, Alcohol, and Nicotine

The following may not be listed, donated, advertised, requested, or promoted through the Platform:

• illegal drugs;
• controlled substances without lawful authorization;
• prescription medications;
• recreational drugs;
• cannabis or THC products where prohibited or otherwise not supported by the Platform;
• drug manufacturing equipment;
• drug paraphernalia where prohibited;
• steroids sold unlawfully;
• alcoholic beverages;
• tobacco products;
• cigarettes;

• vaping products;
• nicotine products;

Users may not use coded language or misleading descriptions to advertise prohibited substances.

Examples include:

• radioactive materials;
• asbestos;
• industrial poisons;
• explosives;
• corrosive chemicals;
• biological hazards;
• contaminated materials;
• improperly stored fuel;
• mercury;
• improperly handled lead-containing materials.

Items requiring specialized transportation, handling, storage, or disposal may also be prohibited.

6. Recalled and Unsafe Consumer Products

User safety is a priority.

Products subject to an active safety recall or otherwise determined to present an unreasonable safety risk may not be listed, sold, donated, or advertised through the Platform.

Examples include:

• recalled consumer products;
• unsafe children's products;
• recalled cribs;
• recalled bassinets;
• recalled infant products;
• unsafe car seats;

Users are responsible for ensuring that items offered through the Platform comply with applicable safety requirements.

Norman's Tip

If a product has been recalled because it could hurt someone, don't pass the problem to another neighbor.

Help keep our community safe.

7. Counterfeit and Infringing Goods

Users may only offer authentic products that they have the legal right to sell.

The following are prohibited:

Users must respect the intellectual property rights of others.

Listings that infringe copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights may be removed without notice.

Norman Says

When it comes to food, safety comes first.

If you're unsure whether something belongs on No Yard Sale, it's better to leave it off the menu.

Honest Listings build stronger communities.

No single factor automatically determines the outcome of a review.

Each matter is evaluated individually.

• community safety;
• legal obligations;
• marketplace integrity.

Our goal is to protect users while encouraging responsible marketplace participation whenever reasonably possible.

24. Appeals

If you believe your Listing, Donation, Service, Advertisement, or Account was restricted or removed in error, you may request that the decision be reviewed.

Depending on the circumstances, Prop Up Media LLC may request additional information, including:

• proof of ownership;
• photographs;
• invoices;
• receipts;

• permits;
• certifications;
• other supporting documentation.

Submission of an appeal does not guarantee that the original decision will be changed.

Appeals are reviewed in good faith using the information reasonably available at the time.

Certain enforcement actions may not be eligible for appeal where immediate action is necessary to protect users, comply with legal obligations, or preserve Platform security.

25. Future Marketplace Categories

As No Yard Sale evolves, new marketplace categories, services, payment options, advertising features, and marketplace tools may be introduced.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, all future categories and Platform features remain subject to the principles described in this Policy.

Prop Up Media LLC may establish additional item-specific rules, approval requirements, or restrictions for future marketplace categories without fundamentally changing the intent of this Policy.

26. Changes to This Policy

Prop Up Media LLC may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in:

• applicable laws;
• marketplace risks;
• fraud prevention practices;
• Platform features;
• Business Account services;

• safety standards;
• community needs.

Material updates will become effective on the Effective Date identified within the revised Policy.

Norman's Final Reminder

Every safe marketplace begins with good decisions.

Before you create a Listing, ask yourself:

• Is it legal?
• Is it safe?
• Is it honestly described?
• Would I feel comfortable if a family member bought this item from me?

If the answer to any of those questions is "no" or "I'm not sure," take a moment to ask us before posting.

By choosing honesty, safety, and common sense, you're helping build a marketplace where neighbors can buy, sell, donate, and connect with confidence.

Thank you for helping keep No Yard Sale a place where trust always comes first.

No signs. No tables. No yard sale.
