Indianapolis garage sales must operate within Rev. Code Ch. 391 noise window — effectively 7 AM to 11 PM, with common 8 AM to 6 PM norm. No explicit day restrictions.
Indianapolis does not impose garage-sale-specific hours, but sales must comply with the Ch. 391 noise ordinance (residential district: 55 dBA quiet hours 10 PM – 7 AM, 65 dBA daytime). Practically, this means early-morning setup before 7 AM risks noise complaints. Most Indy garage sales run 8 AM to 4 PM on Thursdays through Saturdays; weekend multi-family events commonly span 8 AM to 6 PM. Signage must come down within 24 hours of sale end under Rev. Code §801-113. Unsold items must be removed from the yard by sunset to avoid blight/property-maintenance citations under Ch. 575.
Pre-7 AM noise: $50 to $200 Ch. 391 citation. Signs left up past 24 hours: $25 to $100. Unsold items left visible: property maintenance fine $50 to $500.
