No county-mandated hours for garage sales in unincorporated Pima County. Noise ordinance (Ch. 9.30) and dark-sky lighting code (Ch. 18.78) apply to evening sales.
No Pima County ordinance specifies permitted hours for garage sales. In practice, most sales occur between sunrise and early evening, driven by the Sonoran Desert climate (summer heat makes midday sales impractical). The county noise ordinance (Chapter 9.30) applies if sales involve amplified music, loudspeakers, or other noise-generating activities. After-dark sales with outdoor lighting should comply with Pima County outdoor lighting code (Chapter 18.78) designed to protect dark skies near Kitt Peak National Observatory and other astronomical facilities. Weekend sales are most common. During summer months (May through September), many residents hold early morning sales starting at dawn to avoid extreme heat.
