Garage sale items must be removed from yards after sale hours under Conroe property maintenance code. Woodlands RDRC and HOAs enforce same-day cleanup. County imposes no specific rules in unincorporated areas.
Montgomery County has no property maintenance code specifically governing garage sale cleanup. Conroe Code Ch. 26 prohibits accumulation of merchandise, cartons, and display fixtures visible from the public right-of-way after sale hours — items must be stored inside or screened. The Woodlands deed restrictions via the Residential Design Standards ban yard storage and require tables, signage, and unsold merchandise removed same day. HOAs in Bentwater, April Sound, Walden, and Imperial Oaks enforce similar standards. Signs posted without permission on utility poles, medians, or neighbors' property violate Texas Transportation Code §393 and city sign codes. TX HB 2127 preempts some city restrictions but not anti-blight rules. Enforcement usually warning-based first; repeat violators face escalating penalties.
Conroe blight citation: $25 to $500 first offense, up to $2,000 habitual. Woodlands covenant violations: $50 to $500 per occurrence. Signs in ROW removed by TxDOT or city without notice; repeat: $100 to $500.
