Garage sales in Sonora should operate during reasonable daytime hours, generally between 8 AM and 6 PM, to respect residential neighborhood quiet hours. Early morning setup should minimize noise impacts on neighbors. Sales extending into evening hours may trigger noise complaints, particularly for music or amplified announcements. Each sale should last no more than three consecutive days. Weekend sales (Friday through Sunday) are most common and least likely to impact neighborhood parking. Setup and cleanup should occur promptly before and after the sale to maintain property appearance. Merchandise left outdoors after the sale's conclusion may constitute a nuisance under property maintenance provisions.
