Garage sales in unincorporated Riverside County must operate within reasonable daytime hours, typically 7 AM to 7 PM, to comply with Ordinance No. 847 (Noise). Early-morning setup noise and late-evening cleanup are prohibited.
Riverside County does not set specific garage sale operating hours, but Ordinance No. 847 (the county Noise Ordinance) effectively limits sale hours to daytime periods. Residential noise limits restrict daytime activity to 7:00 AM - 10:00 PM with stricter 55 dBA limits, and nighttime (10:00 PM - 7:00 AM) to 45 dBA. Practically, garage sales should run 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM, with setup not beginning before 6:30 AM. Early-bird shoppers arriving before posted hours should not be allowed to create noise. Sellers are responsible for parking, traffic, and pedestrian impacts — vehicles must not block fire lanes, driveways, or sidewalks. On-site signage may only be posted during sale hours and must be removed the same day the sale ends. Multi-day sales must re-comply each day. HOAs often impose stricter timing (e.g., 8 AM - 5 PM, weekends only). Violation of noise provisions carries administrative fines of $100 for a first offense, escalating to $500 for repeat violations.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Riverside County code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
