Garage sales in Fulton County typically operate 7 a.m.-7 p.m. with a 3-day maximum per sale. Nighttime sales are uncommon and may trigger noise/lighting complaints.
Atlanta does not set explicit garage-sale hours but the general nighttime quiet-hour rule (11 p.m.-7 a.m. under §74-133) applies. Sandy Springs and Roswell suggest 7 a.m.-7 p.m. as the practical norm. Setting up before 6 a.m. with audible activity can trigger §46-137 noise citations. Selling vehicles, animals, or food products through garage sales requires separate compliance.
Noise: §46-137 / §74-133 citations $100-$500. Operating retail outside hours: business-license violation.
