Bucks County townships allow temporary garage sale signs on private property with 24-hour placement windows. Signs in public or PennDOT rights-of-way and on utility poles are prohibited and removed without notice.
Most Bucks municipalities limit garage sale signs to 4 to 6 square feet on private property only. Signs may typically be posted up to 24 to 48 hours before the sale and must be removed within 24 hours after. Placement on utility poles, traffic signs, stop signs, and public tree lawns is prohibited under both municipal sign codes and PennDOT right-of-way rules (36 P.S. §2718.101). Directional signs at intersections are generally not allowed in rights-of-way but may be placed on private property with the owner's permission. Some townships (Northampton, Lower Makefield) require a garage sale permit (typically $5 to $20) limiting sales to 2 to 3 per year. Wire-frame corrugated plastic signs are the most common acceptable format.
Signs on utility poles or in rights-of-way: removal by municipal staff, possible $25 to $75 fine per sign. Signs not removed within 24 hours of sale: $25 per day per sign. Operating without a required sale permit: $50 to $200 citation.
