Garage sale season is right around the corner. Before you have your sale, be sure to understand all the rules and regulations for a garage sale with your local community.  Each community has rules and regulations which could range from absolutely nothing to hours of a sale, how many days in a row for a garage sale, if you need a permit for a garage sale, garage sale signs, where they can be posted, how far in advance and for how long.

I have been reading articles about towns all over the country that are instituting or more highly enforcing regulations on having a garage sale, as they have proliferated with the poor economy.

So don’t plan a garage sale without knowing your local garage sale rules and regulations if any. Don’t do all the work and then run the risk of getting shut down or fined. Better to know all in advance.

And when you are ready to have that sale, get my book Ava’s Guide to Garage Sale Gold, available on my website www.garagesalegold.com or on Amazon Kindle.

Happy Saling!
