Auburn, AL Sign Regulations: Garage Sale Signs (2026)

04. 2(f) states that all directional or advertising signs must be removed immediately upon completion of the sale, which leaves no set number of hours or a next-day grace period: the obligation attaches the moment the sale ends. That sign condition sits alongside the sale's other limits, a maximum of two consecutive days per sale and no more than two sales a year with at least 30 days between them, and it applies whether the sign is posted at the sale property itself or as a directional sign placed elsewhere to point traffic toward the sale.

C, including the application and fee set in Article IX, rather than being handled as a simple sign infraction. Beyond the yard-sale exemption itself, Auburn's general sign standards for other sign types run through a separate article of the Zoning Ordinance, but a resident relying on the garage-sale exemption does not get a separate sign permit, only this immediate-removal condition.
