DeSoto County municipalities restrict garage sales to daytime hours, generally 7 AM to sunset. Signs in public rights-of-way are prohibited under MDOT and municipal sign codes and are routinely removed by public works.
Unincorporated DeSoto County sales must comply with general nuisance and sign rules in the Planning Ordinance. Southaven and Olive Branch both restrict sale hours to approximately 7 AM to 7 PM (or sunset, whichever is earlier) under their nuisance and noise provisions, and Horn Lake follows suit. Weekend sales (Thursday through Sunday) are customary. Off-site directional signs in the county right-of-way or on MDOT state routes (US-51, MS-305, MS-302, I-55, I-269) are prohibited and removed without notice under Miss. Code §65-7-1 and local sign ordinances. On-site signs must be removed within 24 hours of the sale ending. Merchandise, tables, and racks must be stored out of public view after hours; leaving goods curbside triggers property maintenance enforcement.
Operating outside allowed hours: $25 to $100. Signs in right-of-way: removal plus $25 to $50 per sign. Merchandise left curbside: property maintenance citation $50 to $200.
