Summary
A Pembroke Pines garage sale gets exactly three signs: one at the sale site and two at the nearest corners, each capped at three square feet. Every sign must come down within 24 hours of the sale ending, or the seller faces a $25 fine.
Any person conducting a garage sale shall be permitted to post only three signs to advertise the sale. Signs shall be distributed by placing one sign at the site of the garage sale and the other two signs may be placed at the corners closest to the property. No signs may be placed which interfere with pedestrian or vehicular traffic or on the property of others without the permission of the property owner. Any signs which interfere with the flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic may be removed by the city with any attendant costs charged to the person conducting the sale. The signs shall not exceed three square feet each. All signs must be removed within 24 hours of the completion of the garage sale. Failure to remove signs within 24 hours shall result in a $25 fine.

Full Breakdown
05(C) limits anyone conducting a permitted garage sale to posting only three signs to advertise it: one placed at the site of the sale itself, and the other two placed at the corners closest to the property. No sign may be placed where it interferes with pedestrian or vehicular traffic, and none may go on another person's property without that owner's permission; the city can remove any sign that interferes with traffic flow and bill the removal cost to the person who held the sale.
Each sign is capped at three square feet, matching the size limit the city applies to residential 'For Sale' signs, and the code cross-references that only one such sign is permitted on the property and that it requires an exempt sign permit. All three garage-sale signs must be taken down within 24 hours of the sale's completion; failing to remove them within that window triggers a flat $25 fine, separate from any permit fee already paid for the sale itself. 05(B) and the three-consecutive-day frequency limit in the same subsection.
Violations & Fines
Posting more than three garage-sale signs, placing one on someone else's property without permission, or leaving a sign up more than 24 hours after the sale ends violates § 120.05(C). Failure to remove signs within the 24-hour window carries a flat $25 fine, and the city may remove any sign that blocks pedestrian or vehicular traffic and charge the removal cost to the seller.
