Clark County, NV Sign Regulations: Garage Sale Signs (2026)

Garage sale and yard sale signs in unincorporated Clark County are regulated under Title 30 (Unified Development Code) temporary sign provisions. Allowed placement includes on the private property where the sale is held and on other private property with the owner written consent. Prohibited placement includes: the public right-of-way (including medians, sidewalks, parkways), utility poles and street light poles, traffic control signs and fixtures, trees in the public right-of-way, and on public buildings or grounds. Sign size is limited — typically no larger than 4 to 6 square feet per sign — and signs must be non-illuminated. Signs must be removed within 24 hours after the sale ends. Clark County Code Enforcement periodically sweeps major intersections and right-of-way areas to remove improperly placed temporary signs, often without individual notice. Nails, staples, and adhesives that damage utility poles or public fixtures may trigger additional charges. Title 30 also imposes frequency limits on garage sales themselves — typically no more than two to three garage sales per residence per year — with the intent of preventing ongoing outdoor retail operations in residential zones, which would require a business license and commercial zoning. Homeowners hosting sales must ensure sales do not create traffic hazards or noise violations. HOAs in Clark County may impose stricter sign and frequency rules.
