Garage sale signs posting

May 16, 2023

The City of Edmundston reminds citizens that it is prohibited to post "garage" or yard sale signs on electric or telephone poles as well as any other place outside their property.

If any such signs end up on poles, they will be removed by the municipality - it's a matter of safe access for Edmundston Energy employees who must work in these poles.

There are large community boards accessible to the public in each of the neighbourhoods, where citizens can post their ads (8 1⁄2 x 11 format) for garage or yard sales. People can place their ad themselves and are responsible for picking them up after the sale has ended.

The four display boards can be found:

• near the Post Office, on Isidore-Boucher Boulevard (Saint-Jacques)
• at the Arena (Saint-Basile)
• in front of Poissonnerie Ouellet on Victoria Street and
• at Mgr-Eymard-Desjardins Park (Verret)

Note that you can have two garage sales per year without a permit, and each lasting no longer than four consecutive days.

The City of Edmundston thanks you for your cooperation
