Verified from official government sources
St. Johns County requires no permit for a residential garage sale. The Land Development Code treats it as an accessory use to the home, allowed without a license or fee, as long as you stay within the once-per-six-months and three-day limits.
St. Johns County caps residential garage sales at one per property during any six-month period under its Land Development Code. That works out to about two a year, and running them more often, or continuously, risks a code-enforcement citation for operating a business in a home.
A St. Johns County garage sale may run no more than three consecutive days under the Land Development Code. Daytime hours are the norm, with the county noise ordinance barring the early-morning and late-night disturbance a sale might otherwise generate.
