- Required. Every person conducting such sale shall obtain a permit. Before a permit may be issued, an affidavit must be filed with the license collector stating that all property to be sold is the applicant's own personal property and has not been acquired or consigned to him for the purpose of resale, or benefit of other than the occupants of the premises. The permit fee shall be $8.00.
- Frequency and time. An individual or household shall be limited to one such sale per six-month period (i.e., six months must pass between sales) and shall be limited to three consecutive days, or two consecutive weekends of two days each, a weekend being Saturday and Sunday.

- Display of goods. Sale goods may not be displayed in the public right-of-way, and all such goods shall be arranged so that fire, safety service, health, and other officials may have access for inspection at all times during the sale.
- Exceptions. The provisions of this section shall not apply to sales of personal property made under court order of process.
