Frequency caps are municipal in Gloucester County. Washington Township limits each person to four garage sale licenses within any twelve months, none longer than three consecutive days. Gloucester Township caps a license at four days per year.
How often you can sell is fixed by your municipality, not the county. Washington Township is explicit: no garage sale license issues to any one person more than four times within a twelve-month period, and no single sale runs more than three consecutive days. Gloucester Township limits a license to no more than four days within twelve months. These caps keep occasional yard sales from becoming a standing retail operation; running sales so continuously that a home reads as an unlicensed store raises separate zoning and business-license problems anywhere in the county.
Exceeding a town's annual cap — four licenses in Washington Township — is a municipal ordinance violation drawing a fine. Continuous sales amounting to an unlicensed retail business can trigger separate zoning enforcement.
