Moorpark allows residents to post up to 6 off-site signs for garage sales, each no larger than 2 feet by 2 feet. Signs may not be placed on utility poles, traffic signs, or in the public right-of-way. Temporary yard signs, feather signs, and mobile signs are generally prohibited outside of sale events.
Moorpark permits garage sale signage subject to specific restrictions. Residents may post up to 6 signs off the sale site, with each sign not exceeding 2 feet by 2 feet in size. Signs must not be placed on utility poles, traffic control devices, or in the public right-of-way. On-site signs are also permitted during the sale. Signs must be removed promptly after the sale concludes. The city's general sign regulations in Chapter 17.40 prohibit temporary yard signs, feather signs, and mobile signs in most circumstances, making garage sales one of the limited exceptions for temporary off-site signage. Commercial use of garage sales (operating a regular retail business under the guise of a garage sale) is not permitted.
Signs placed on utility poles or in the right-of-way may be removed by the city. Signs left up after the sale concludes may result in a code compliance notice. Exceeding the 6-sign limit or using oversized signs is a violation. Contact Code Compliance at (805) 517-6232.
