Full Breakdown

Springdale, Arkansas's sign chapter regulates garage, porch, or yard sale signs under Sec. 98-61(c): they must be freestanding, no larger than 24 by 24 inches with a maximum sign area of eight square feet, and no taller than 24 inches. A sign follows the same temporary-sign rules as other banners, except it can go up no more than two days before the sale starts and must come down by the beginning of the first business day after the sale ends. No permit is required for this sign type, but it may not be illuminated. The rule applies citywide, across both the Washington County and Benton County sides of Springdale.

Violations & Fines

A garage sale sign that exceeds the size or height limit, is illuminated, or stays up past the removal deadline violates Sec. 98-61(c) and can be ordered removed by the chief city inspector.
