Dad’s Market at 64 Garnet Street in Wallaceburg is preparing to shut its doors for good, as the owners transition the property back into a full-scale heated storage facility.
The local shop is currently clearing out its expansive 30,000-square-foot inventory, packed with both new and used merchandise ranging from lawn ornaments and tools to furniture, fencing, fire pits and antiques.
Customers have until mid-July to browse through the wide selection.
The market will remain open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with final auctions scheduled for July 11, 12 and 13.
Here is a look inside the market:

By Monday, July 14, the building will be empty, as the space is repurposed exclusively for storage of boats, trailers and vehicles.
Dad’s Market has been a destination for treasure hunters and bargain-seekers alike.
The closure marks the end of an era — but not the end of the building’s usefulness.
With the transition to storage, the site is set to serve a new purpose for the seasons ahead.
