The City of Pasadena permits reasonable use of residential property for "yard sales" or "garage sales". This ordinance establishes the limits for such sales, prevents excessive number of sales at any one property, restricts unnecessary signs and superfluous advertising, and finally, curtails unattractive outdoor display of items for sale. When conducted with concern for neighborhood appearance, yard sales or garage sales should cause no detrimental effect in a neighborhood’s residential quality. A fee of $20.00 is charged. For more information and a downloadable permit form, see yard sale or garage sale permits.
