Chandler permits residential garage sales without a special permit. Sales should be conducted on the property and items should not be placed on sidewalks or in the right-of-way. The city recommends limiting garage sale frequency to avoid crossing into commercial activity, which would require a business license. Unsold items must be removed from outdoor display after the sale concludes.
Chandler property maintenance code applies to garage and yard sales to prevent blight conditions. Merchandise must be displayed in an organized manner, not scattered across the yard. Tables, racks, and display items must be removed or stored out of public view by the end of sale hours each day. Unsold items cannot be left at the curb or in the front yard between sale days or after the sale concludes. Signs must be removed within 24 hours of the sale ending. Properties that develop a pattern of visible clutter may receive blight citations.
Items left out after sale: $50 to $200 blight citation. Signs not removed: $25 to $50. Habitual violations: escalating fines.
