Garage sales in Washington County cities typically run 8 AM to 6 PM or dusk. Most cities prohibit sales before 8 AM or after sunset/10 PM. Items and signs must be cleaned up each evening with final removal within 24 hours of sale end.
Time restrictions for garage sales in Washington County cities align with general residential noise/nuisance hours. Typical allowed hours are 8 AM to 6 PM or 7 AM to dusk depending on season. Beaverton BC 7.02 specifies 8 AM-8 PM; Hillsboro HMC 5.04 8 AM-sunset; Tigard TMC 5.04 allows 7 AM-8 PM; Tualatin, Sherwood, and Forest Grove follow similar windows. Sales commonly run Thursday through Sunday to maximize weekend traffic. Items, tables, and racks must be removed from view or stored by end of sale hours each evening — leaving merchandise at the curb overnight creates blight conditions subject to property maintenance citations. Signs directing shoppers must be removed within 24 hours of the final sale day under each city's sign code. Parking in residential streets must respect any posted restrictions and cannot block driveways, fire hydrants, or mail delivery. Popular sale mornings in subdivisions like Bethany, Murrayhill, and Oak Hills can generate complaints about street congestion — shoppers should park in legal spots and respect neighbors. Early-bird shoppers arriving before posted hours can be asked to leave.
Operating outside posted hours: $25-$100. Items left at curb overnight: $50-$200 blight citation. Signs not removed: $25-$100. Blocking driveways: tow possible.
