Not for a normal residential sale. Garage-sale and sign requirements in Brandon, Manitoba can vary by location and property type. Check the current municipal rules before posting signs, using public property, or selling goods acquired for resale. It is still worth a look at your city's rules on where signs may go, and at any HOA or strata bylaw that applies to your street.
When is garage sale season in Brandon?
