Macomb County has no garage-sale ordinance. In Michigan, permits, frequency limits, hours, and sign rules for yard sales are set by each city, village, or township.
The county does not regulate garage or yard sales. Whether you need a permit, how many sales you may hold per year, allowed hours, and rules on temporary signs are all set by your city, village, or township. Many Macomb communities limit residents to two or three sales a year and restrict sign placement in the public right-of-way; some require a free permit. Because these rules vary widely between municipalities, confirm the requirements with your local clerk or ordinance code before holding a sale.
Garage-sale violations, such as exceeding the allowed number of sales or posting prohibited signs, are enforced by the municipality as local civil infractions. The county issues no garage-sale penalties.
