Summary

Unincorporated Flagler County has no garage sale ordinance. Its former Article V, Garage Sales, sections 20-321 through 20-328, was repealed in its entirety by Ord. No. 2008-27 in September 2008, and the county has not re-enacted any frequency or duration limit on residential garage sales since.

City-specific rules exist: Palm Coast has its own frequency, duration & permits rules that differ from Flagler County's county-level regulations. If you live in Palm Coast, check the city-specific page instead.

Editor's note— Section 4 of Ord. No. 2008-27, adopted Sept. 15, 2008, repealed Art. V, Garage Sales, in its entirety. Former Art. V was comprised of §§ 20-321—20-328 which were derived from Ord. No. 99-03, adopted April 5, 1999.

Full Breakdown

Flagler County's Chapter 20 code once devoted Article V, sections 20-321 through 20-328, to garage sale regulation; those sections were originally enacted by Ord. No. 99-03 in April 1999. The editor's note preserved in the current code confirms that Section 4 of Ord. No. 2008-27, adopted September 15, 2008, repealed that entire article, and the sections are now marked "Reserved" in the code with no replacement text. Nothing in the current Chapter 20, or elsewhere in the general code searched for this entry, sets a per-year sale count, a maximum sale duration, permit requirement, or signage rule specific to residential garage, yard, or estate sales in the unincorporated county.

Because the repeal removed the entire regulatory framework rather than replacing it, a resident holding a garage sale on unincorporated county property is not subject to a county-specific frequency or duration cap; general nuisance, parking, and sign provisions elsewhere in the code would still apply to associated conduct, but no dedicated garage-sale limit exists to quote. This absence is local and specific to Flagler County's own repeal history, not a statewide preemption; Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, Bunnell, Beverly Beach and Marineland each set their own separate municipal rules and residents there should check that city's code instead of assuming this repeal applies to them.

Violations & Fines

There is no county garage-sale ordinance left to violate; no citation, fine, or permit revocation process exists under the former Article V because it was repealed rather than amended. A garage sale on unincorporated county property remains subject to any generally applicable nuisance, noise, right-of-way, or sign provisions found elsewhere in the Flagler County Code, but those are separate general rules, not a garage-sale-specific violation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many garage sales can I hold per year in unincorporated Flagler County?
There is no county limit. The county's former garage-sale article was repealed in its entirety by Ord. No. 2008-27 in September 2008, and no frequency or duration cap has been enacted since, so no county-specific number applies to unincorporated property.
Did Flagler County ever regulate garage sales?
Yes. Article V of Chapter 20, sections 20-321 through 20-328, regulated garage sales starting with Ord. No. 99-03 in 1999. The county repealed that entire article by Ord. No. 2008-27 in 2008, and the sections now sit "Reserved" with no substitute rule.
Does this no-limit rule apply if I live in Palm Coast?
No. This repeal is specific to Flagler County's own code, which governs only unincorporated territory. Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, Beverly Beach, Bunnell and Marineland each maintain their own separate municipal codes and may still regulate garage sales within city limits.
