YARD SALES IN BELMONT (ALSO KNOWN AS PRIVATE SALES, GARAGE SALES, TAG SALES, ETC.)
The Town Clerk’s office reminds Belmont residents that the Town’s General Private Sales Bylaw §60-910 (effective September 2014) requires a permit for Private Sales (also known as Yard Sales, Garage Sales, Tag Sales, etc) held in Town.
The permit is free and can be accessed through the Town Clerk’s webpage on the Town’s website. It takes less than one minute to obtain the permit once you know the date and hours of your intended sale. Other required fields are name, address, phone and email address where the permit will be emailed. If the person running the sale doesn’t use email, the permit can be obtained with assistance of the Town Clerk’s staff at 617-993-2600. The address and hours of your sale are the only fields that will be viewable by the public and potential customers.
Prospective customers : You too can view the private sale information and map your day perusing Belmont’s sales.
