ROH does not set specific hours for garage sales; limits flow from the LUO accessory-use framework at 21-5.350 and noise and public-nuisance rules in ROH Chapter 41.
The City and County of Honolulu does not adopt specific start and end hours for residential garage sales. Practical limits flow from two sources: the LUO accessory/home-occupation framework at 21-5.350, which requires garage sales to remain occasional and accessory to residential use, and the general noise provisions in ROH Chapter 41, which apply to any sale activity disturbing neighbors outside reasonable hours. Hosts on Oahu should keep loudspeakers, amplified music, and hammering down, particularly early morning and late evening, to avoid a noise complaint.
Noise citations under ROH Chapter 41 and zoning issues if an activity becomes a de facto home occupation.
