Lane County has no countywide garage-sale or yard-sale permit ordinance for unincorporated areas; occasional home sales are a normal residential use. Cities such as Eugene and Springfield set their own limits on frequency, duration, and signs within their limits.
A review of Lane Code turns up no county permit, fee, or frequency cap on residential garage or yard sales in the unincorporated county. Occasional casual sales of household goods are treated as an accessory residential use rather than a home business or commercial activity. Practical limits that still apply: temporary sale signs may not be placed in the public right-of-way where they create a vegetation-style sight obstruction, and repeated commercial-scale selling could trigger home-occupation or zoning review under Lane Code Chapter 16. Within incorporated cities, the city's municipal code governs garage-sale frequency, hours, and signage, so check the specific city rules if inside city limits.
No county garage-sale penalty. Signs left in the right-of-way or ongoing commercial selling may draw code-compliance or zoning enforcement.
