On your own property in unincorporated Guadalupe County there is no county rule on garage-sale signs. But Transportation Code 393.002 makes it illegal to stake a sign in a public road right-of-way, and Seguin, Schertz, and Cibolo limit off-premise signs.
The unincorporated county has no sign ordinance, so an owner may post a garage-sale sign in their own yard freely. The catch is placement off your land. Section 393.002 prohibits putting any sign in the right-of-way of a public road unless state law authorizes it, which covers the strip along most county and state roads where people stake directional sale signs, and TxDOT or county crews can remove them. Inside the cities, the Seguin, Schertz, and Cibolo sign codes regulate temporary and off-premise directional signs and may cap their number and duration. In platted subdivisions, recorded HOA deed restrictions often limit sale signs to the day of the event.
A sign placed in a public road right-of-way violates Section 393.002 and is subject to removal, with penalties reaching $500 under the chapter. City sign-code and HOA covenant violations carry their own fines.
