How do I Advertise a Garage Sale on My Property

PLACEMENT OF GARAGE SALE, PARTY NOTICES, AND OTHER TEMPORARY SIGNS

If you are planning a garage sale or organizing a party at your house this weekend, you probably want to place a sign out by the street. However, there is a proper place and method to set up the sign. Please DO put these signs on stakes and stick them into the ground. Please DO NOT attached these signs to street sign poles, street light poles or electric utility poles. Signs that are on these items are subject to confiscation by city personnel.

We are asking that no signs be placed on city utility and street sign poles for a couple of reasons. One, there is a safety factor. When a city employee goes to work on the utility pole or street sign, there is a good chance they will get injured on nails or staples that are left in the pole after the signs are removed.

The second reason for not placing the sign on the poles is aesthetics. We want our city to look the best it can for the people who live here and those who come to visit on the weekend. Signs on utility poles and street signs can quickly become an unsightly mess. Signs staked in the ground are less unsightly, and we also want to make sure that we pick them up after the party or garage sale is over.

If you need more information, please call Carlisle City Hall at 989-3224 or emailcityhall@carlisleiowa.org.
