Clarksville limits each sale to three consecutive days and sets no opening or closing hour. The real time-and-place rules are in Section 5-608, which bans posting sale signs on poles anywhere off the property.
Section 5-607 fixes duration at three consecutive days per sale. The Official Code sets no start or end time for a yard sale, so the practical limits come from Section 5-608 and the zoning sign rules. Section 5-608 makes it unlawful to cause traffic congestion in the area of the sale, and bars posting advertisements on telephone poles, utility poles, or anywhere at all except temporary signs within the yard or space where the sale is held. Advertising to local news media is permitted. Zoning Ordinance Section 8.3(1) separately allows unlighted freestanding permanent or temporary signs of six square feet or less in residential districts.
Codes enforcement and police can order signs removed and traffic congestion cleared. Sale advertising placed on utility poles or in the right-of-way is unlawful and subject to removal.
