The city does not impose extremely restrictive frequency limits but sales must not constitute ongoing commercial activity. Items must be personal household goods.
Pompano Beach permits residential garage and yard sales for the disposal of personal household property. Sales must not constitute ongoing commercial retail activity, which would require a Business Tax Receipt and Zoning Use Certificate. The Code Compliance Department enforces standards related to signage, traffic, noise, and property maintenance during sales. Signs advertising garage sales must comply with Chapter 156 (Sign Code) temporary sign provisions. Items for sale must be personal household goods, not commercial merchandise. Frequent or continuous sales may be treated as home-based business activity requiring proper zoning approval.
Continuous garage sale activity may be cited as an unlicensed business. Sign violations enforced under Ch. 156.
