Garage sale permits and sign rules in Arizona

No arizona-wide permit exists. The rules below are set city by city, and we have recorded them for the 3 Arizona cities on this site.

The two-minute answer

Every rule below was recorded for one specific Arizona city — Mesa, Phoenix and Tucson — not for the state, because there is no arizona garage sale law to apply. Two neighbouring cities on this list can differ on whether a permit exists at all, where a sign may stand, and how many sale days an address is allowed. Find the row for your own street, follow its official link where we have one, and take your signs down on the evening the sale ends.
