Rankin County has no county-wide garage sale hour ordinance. Brandon, Pearl, Flowood, and Richland cap sales at daylight hours and limit frequency. Unincorporated areas rely on general nuisance rules.
Unincorporated Rankin County does not regulate garage or yard sale hours - sales operate under general peace and nuisance provisions. Brandon (the county seat), Pearl, Flowood, Richland, Florence, and Pelahatchie treat repeated yard sales as commercial activity. Typical municipal rules limit each address to three or four sales per calendar year, each no longer than three consecutive days, during daylight hours only. Signs posted in MDOT right-of-way along US-80, Lakeland Drive (MS-25), Spillway Road, Grants Ferry Road, or I-20 will be removed by public works without notice. HOAs in Reservoir-area subdivisions (Castlewoods, Grants Ferry, Lake Caroline approaches) commonly restrict yard sales through covenants beyond any city rule.
Exceeding permitted frequency or sign violations in incorporated cities: $50 to $500 code enforcement citation under general penalty clauses. MDOT sign removal billed back to property owner. HOA enforcement handled privately.
