Fort Lee FAQ

Can I run a Fort Lee garage sale all weekend?

Permits typically allow up to two consecutive days, so a Saturday-Sunday sale is possible if both days are listed on the application and within allowed hours.

Can I post garage sale signs on telephone poles?

No. Posting signs on utility poles, trees, or in the public right-of-way is generally prohibited; signs should be on private property and removed after the sale.

Teaneck FAQ

Can I start setting up at 7 a.m.?

No. Teaneck garage sales typically cannot begin before 9:00 a.m. Early setup that draws shoppers prematurely violates the permit's time conditions.

When must I take down my signs?

Signs must be removed promptly after the sale ends, usually the same day. Leaving signs on poles or trees afterward violates Teaneck's sign and litter rules.
