Yakima County, WA Sign Regulations: Garage Sale Signs (2026)

070, defines a 'yard sale' partly by its signage: an event is occurring whenever there is a sign that announces or publicizes it. 110, which applies to all temporary signs including sale, rent and election signs. The section allows only one temporary sign per street frontage on a parcel or lot, and bars placing any temporary sign in a required parking space, driveway or clear-view triangle. A temporary sign cannot go in the public right-of-way or an easement unless the County specifically permits it, and any sign placed on the ground must be separated from parking and driveway areas by a curb or other barrier.

Size is capped at 32 square feet, well above what a typical yard-sale sign needs, but the removal deadline is the operative constraint for a garage sale: the sign must come down within 15 days of the event it advertises. 020(9), the 15-day sign removal window functions as the outer limit, not a grace period to leave signs up indefinitely between sales.
