West Jordan requires no permit for residential garage sales limited to 3 sales per year, 3 consecutive days each, on the owner's own property. Commercial-level sales require business license under Title 5.
Under West Jordan Title 5 (Business Licensing) and Title 13 (Zoning), occasional garage sales are classified as non-commercial and permit-exempt provided: maximum 3 sales per calendar year per household; each sale lasts 3 consecutive days or fewer (Fri–Sun typical); only items from the household are sold (no purchased-for-resale merchandise); sales occur only on the seller's own property; and operating hours 8 AM–8 PM. Households exceeding these limits (weekly sales, reselling purchased inventory) are considered operating a retail business requiring a business license ($75–$150/year) and may not operate from residential zones per home occupation rules. Signs must comply with Title 13-7 (see garage-sale-signs).
Exceeding 3 sales/year limit: $100 fine, deemed commercial operation requiring license. Selling resale merchandise: business license required ($75–$150).
