Clovis typically limits garage sales to 3β4 per calendar year per household. More frequent sales can be reclassified as a home business requiring zoning approval and business license.
Garage sales are regulated in Clovis Municipal Code. The frequency limitβtypically 3 or 4 per calendar year, not to exceed 3 consecutive days eachβprevents de facto retail operations in residential zones. Multi-family (e.g., block sales) generally count once per household. Goods sold must be the owner's personal property, not acquired for resale.
Exceeding frequency limit: code enforcement notice, $100+ fine, and potential reclassification as unpermitted home business.
