Garage sale signs in Homestead must be placed on private property and removed after the sale ends. Signs on public rights-of-way, utility poles, and traffic signs are prohibited. Signs should not obstruct visibility at intersections. The city may remove signs placed on public property.
Homestead regulates garage and yard sale signage as part of its general sign code. Signs advertising garage sales should be placed on the seller's property or on other private property with the owner's consent. Signs cannot be placed on public rights-of-way, utility poles, trees on public property, traffic signs, or medians. Signs at intersections must not obstruct visibility triangles. Temporary garage sale signs should be modest in size (typically no larger than 4-6 square feet) and should be removed immediately after the sale concludes. Signs left up after the sale ends become litter and may trigger code enforcement. The city or county may remove unauthorized signs from public property. Directional signs on nearby streets should also be on private property with consent. Electronic or illuminated signs for garage sales are not appropriate in residential areas.
Signs on public property may be confiscated. Signs left after sales end face litter/code enforcement citations with fines of $25 to $100. Contact Code Compliance at (305) 224-4800.
