Garage sale rules are set town by town in Gloucester County. Washington Township requires a Township Clerk license, caps sales at four per year and three days each, and limits hours to 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Gloucester Township allows four days a year.
There is no countywide garage sale rule in Gloucester County; each municipality sets its own. Washington Township regulates tightly under Chapter 104: it is unlawful to hold a sale without first obtaining a garage sale license from the Township Clerk, no license issues more than four times per person in twelve months, no sale runs more than three consecutive days, and sales are confined to 9:00 a.m. through 6:00 p.m. Gloucester Township caps a license at four days within a twelve-month period. Glassboro runs a free, permit-free community-wide yard sale day. The rule that binds you is your municipality's ordinance.
Holding a sale without the required license, exceeding the four-per-year cap, or running past permitted hours is a municipal ordinance violation in towns like Washington Township, carrying a fine set in local court.
