3 rules for unincorporated Plymouth County, Massachusetts.
Verified from official government sources
Permits are a local matter, not a county one. Brockton requires a residential Yard Sale Permit from the City Clerk's Office at $5.00 per day, obtainable any time before the sale. Plymouth and the surrounding towns generally require no permit for a home sale.
How often you can hold a sale is capped locally, not by the county. Brockton limits residential yard sales to 2 days per calendar year under its permit. Plymouth and the surrounding towns set no fixed numeric cap for occasional home sales.
No county rule sets yard sale hours, and the Plymouth County communities impose few limits beyond daylight and general noise bylaws. Sales are expected to run during reasonable daytime hours, with amplified noise and early setup controlled by local nuisance rules.
