Garage sale permits in Ocean County operate under local ordinances enabled by N.J.S.A. 40:52-1 (licensing). Toms River §210-20 requires a garage sale permit issued by the Township Clerk at a nominal $5 fee, limited to 2 sales per household per calendar year, maximum 3 consecutive days. Brick Township §128 requires permit at $5 with similar frequency limits. Jackson §116-25 requires registration (free in some years, $10 others). Lakewood §143 requires permit with no Shabbat sales. LBI boroughs (Long Beach Township, Ship Bottom) restrict garage sales on rental properties because the activity may be deemed commercial. Seaside Heights restricts boardwalk-adjacent sales to prevent peddling-like operations.

Operating without a required permit or exceeding frequency limits triggers commercial retail use classification with significantly higher zoning penalties.
