Garage sale signs regulated by town/village zoning. Typical rule: post only on your own property, max 4-6 sq ft, no posting on utility poles or public right-of-way, remove within 24-48 hours after sale ends.
Rockland towns and villages regulate temporary signs through their zoning codes. Typical garage sale sign rules: maximum 4-6 sq ft surface area; no more than one sign on the property hosting the sale; prohibited on utility poles, traffic signs, or public rights-of-way; must be removed within 24-48 hours after the sale ends. NY Highway Law §319 prohibits signs in state highway rights-of-way. Direction signs placed at intersections on private property with owner's permission are often tolerated but technically may violate off-premises sign rules. Village of Nyack, Suffern, and Piermont enforce sign removal aggressively. Illegal sign placement can generate $50-$200 fines per sign.
Signs on poles/right-of-way removed; fines $50-$200 per sign. Failure to remove after sale: continuing daily violation.
