Omaha restricts temporary garage sale signs under OMC Title 55 sign regulations. Signs are permitted on private property during the sale but prohibited on public property, utility poles, and rights-of-way. Signs must be removed promptly after the sale ends.
Garage sale signs on private property are limited in size (typically 6 square feet in residential zones). Signs may not be placed on public utility poles, traffic signs, or in the public right-of-way. Directional signs on other private property require the property owner's permission. Signs must be removed within 24 hours after the sale concludes. No permit is required for temporary garage sale signs within size limits.
Signs placed on utility poles or in the right-of-way may be removed by the city. Failure to remove signs after a sale may result in nuisance complaints and code enforcement action.
