Fillmore allows residential garage and yard sales with reasonable frequency limits. Typical restrictions limit sales to 2-4 per year per property. Excessive or continuous sales may be treated as a home business requiring a business license.
Fillmore permits garage and yard sales as temporary residential activities. While specific frequency limits vary, most California cities in Fillmore's size range allow 2-4 sales per year per household, typically lasting no more than 2-3 consecutive days each. Sales exceeding these limits may be treated as an ongoing business requiring a business license and home occupation permit. Items sold must be personal household goods, not inventory purchased for resale. Signs advertising garage sales must comply with sign regulations. Sales must occur during reasonable hours, typically 8 AM to 6 PM. Community-wide yard sales are sometimes organized for the Fillmore downtown area.
Exceeding garage sale frequency limits or operating what amounts to a retail business from your home may trigger code enforcement action. The city may require a business license for excessive sales activity. Sign violations carry separate penalties.
