Tulsa County imposes no frequency limit on garage sales in unincorporated areas or City of Tulsa. However, 3+ sales per year may trigger OK Tax Commission retail classification under 68 OS § 1364 requiring sales tax permit.
Neither Tulsa County nor the City of Tulsa limits the number of garage or yard sales a household may conduct per year. Residents can hold sales as often as they choose, provided signage and property maintenance codes are followed. The practical limit comes from Oklahoma state tax law: Oklahoma Tax Commission rule OAC 710:65-13-8 treats occasional sales of personal property as exempt from sales tax, but holding 3 or more sales per year may reclassify the activity as retail, requiring a sales tax permit under 68 OS § 1364. Suburbs within Tulsa County may have stricter local rules — for example, some Broken Arrow neighborhoods and HOAs limit to 2-3 sales per year. Church and nonprofit sales are treated separately under 68 OS § 1356.
No direct frequency violation in Tulsa County. Operating as unlicensed retail (3+ sales/yr): 68 OS § 1364 sales tax permit violation, back taxes plus up to $500 fine. Running an unpermitted home business: TZC § 40.020 home occupation violation $100-$500.
