Madison County sets no cap on how often you can hold a yard sale in unincorporated areas — there is no annual limit. Frequency is controlled only by HOA covenants, if any apply.
No county rule limits the number of garage sales a household can hold in unincorporated Madison County. The county does not license residential sales, so a resident can hold them as often as they like without breaching county law. The practical brakes are elsewhere: a homeowners association covenant may cap sales per year, and running sales so continuously that the property becomes a de facto storefront could raise unlicensed-business questions. Short of that, Madison County imposes no numeric limit at all.
The county issues no citation for frequent sales. Only an HOA covenant limit, or a sale operation so constant it reads as an unlicensed retail business, creates any enforceable problem.
