Garage Sales

A garage sale permit is required by the Amberley Village Code for individuals who plan to hold a garage or yard sale within the Village. The permit is free, and may be obtained at the Amberley Village Municipal Building or online. Submit the completed form to the administration office at the Amberley Village Municipal Building for approval.

The completed permit must be on file at the Amberley Village Municipal Building prior to the start of the sale and the following guidelines apply:

  1. Garage sales shall be held only during daylight hours; and for not more than two consecutive days.
  2. Items sold shall be owned solely by occupants of his or her household.
  3. Items for sale may not be displayed any nearer than 25 feet from the Village right-of-way line.
  4. Temporary tents of any kind may not be erected for the purpose of a garage sale unless zoning approval is obtained prior to the sale.
  5. Residents must comply with all regulations of the Amberley Village Code concerning advertising and posting of signs. Section 111.94 of the Amberley Village Code states:
  6. “No advertisement or direction sign for a garage sale, lawn sale, or basement sale shall be posted on Village property or in a manner which would restrict a right-of-way of a public highway or Village street. Signs shall not be posted on the property of another without the express permission of the property owner.”
