Do I need a permit for a garage sale in Miami?
No. Miami requires a garage sale permit ($20 fee) for each sale. Residents are limited to two sales per year. Signs must be removed immediately after the sale. Your city may still set rules on signage and hours, and a strata, HOA or residents' association can add its own.

Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Brickell tend to post the most listings, and Little Havana is worth a detour for household and kids' items.

Is it safe to hold a garage sale in Miami?
Generally yes, with the usual sense: keep cash on you rather than in a box, keep the house locked while you are out front, and ask a friend to sit the busy first hour with you. Your address is not shown here until the day of your sale.
What time do garage sales start in Miami?
