Montgomery County has no countywide garage-sale-sign ordinance. Temporary sign rules, including size, duration, and whether signs may go in the right-of-way, are set by your city, village, or township.
Signs advertising garage, yard, or estate sales are temporary signs governed by local sign codes, not by Montgomery County. Your city, village, or township decides how many signs you may post, their maximum size, how many days before and after the sale they may stay up, and whether they may go anywhere but the seller's property; townships act under ORC Chapter 519. A common rule across Ohio communities is that garage-sale signs may not be attached to utility poles, sign posts, or trees, or placed in the public road right-of-way (the strip between sidewalk and curb). Signs blocking traffic sightlines are prohibited. Some communities also require a permit for the sale itself and cap the number of sales per year.
Garage-sale signs posted in the right-of-way or on utility poles may be removed by the municipality or township. Exceeding local size, number, or duration limits is enforced by your local code-enforcement officer, usually beginning with removal or a warning.
