How to Post a FREE Classified Ad!

Introduction to ShopHutchinsonMN.com FREE Classified Ads

Welcome to our FREE online classified ads. You may list any items you wish to sell, within reason. We do reserve the right to remove anything posted on our website for any reason. Our intent with this policy is to keep our website clean of offensive material, spam and other less than desirable material.

You must be 18 years old or older to post items on our website. You may not post "commercial items" for sale, unless you are a business with a paid membership. "Commercial Items" are defined as:

  • Items sold for retail purposes (i.e. items sold in your store or other place of business)
  • Items listed for sale with you or your business on behalf of someone else (i.e. automobiles, homes, recreational vehicles)

How to ad an item to our FREE Online Classified Ads

You will need to register for an account in order to place an ad.

  • There are no fees charged for an account
  • Registering for an account does not place you on a mailing list of any kind
  • If you already have an account set up for the Directory portion of our website, you will still need to set up an account within our FREE Online Classified section. (I know it is a little bit of a pain; but it is a technical thing within the database and scripts.)
    • You can set the account up to use the same user name and password as your Directory account to make things a little easier.
    • You do not need to have an account set up with the Directory in order to have an account with the Classifieds.
