Wichita regulates garage sale signs as temporary signs under the Sign Code. Signs may be placed on private property but are prohibited in the public right-of-way, on utility poles, and on traffic signs.
Garage sale signs are considered temporary signs and must comply with the city's general temporary sign regulations. Signs must be on the property where the sale is occurring or on another private property with owner permission. Maximum sign size in residential areas is 6 square feet. Signs may not be placed in medians, on public sidewalks, or attached to any public structure. Signs must be removed immediately after the sale ends. The city periodically conducts sign sweeps to remove illegally placed right-of-way signs.
Signs placed in the right-of-way are subject to immediate removal by city crews. Failure to remove signs after a sale may result in a code violation notice. Repeat offenders may face fines for littering or illegal sign placement.
