Garden Grove allows temporary garage sale signs on the property where the sale is held but prohibits signs in the public right-of-way, on utility poles, or on traffic signs. Signs must be removed at the conclusion of the sale.
Garden Grove regulates temporary signs including garage sale signs under Municipal Code Title 9 (Land Use / Signs). Residents may post signs advertising a garage or yard sale on the private property where the sale is occurring. Signs placed in the public right-of-way, including sidewalks, medians, parkways, utility poles, traffic signs, and street lights, are prohibited and subject to removal by city staff. Garage sale signs on private property must be temporary and removed promptly at the conclusion of the sale. The city generally limits the size and number of temporary signs on residential property. Signs should not obstruct visibility at intersections, driveways, or pedestrian pathways. Off-site garage sale signs on other private property require the property owner's permission. The city periodically conducts sign sweeps to remove illegally posted signs from the public right-of-way.
Signs posted in the public right-of-way are removed by the city, often without notice. Repeat violators may receive administrative citations and fines from Code Enforcement. Contact Code Enforcement at (714) 741-5792.
