Garage Sales

Permits are required for garage sales

By city ordinance, garage sales, rummage sales, yard sales and other such sales require a city permit. Regulating garage sales prevents the accumulation of unsightly cardboard signs littering streets and utility poles. Permits also prevent those who would otherwise conduct constant garage sales from single family homes, and generally keeps residential areas clean and free of constant heavy traffic.

Residents conducting garage sales, yard sales and other similar such sales must obtain a permit in person at:
Development Services Department
City Annex Building
601 Moore Avenue
Office Hours: 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. 

Costs

Permits cost $15.00 - Cash, credit card and checks are acceptable forms of payment.

What you get for your permit fee

We provide you with 3 garage sale signs and publish your sale on the city website. Additional signs can be purchased for $3.00 each. The weekly garage sale list is updated each Friday by the close of business. Any permits issued by the police department after the close of business on Friday will not be included in the list below. Signs can be placed on city property and on city right-of-way. Only signs issued by the city can be used to advertise a garage sale.
