Borough Garage-Sale Permit

Chatham Township

The Township participates in coordinated Chathams/Madison yard-sale events through its Environmental Commission. NJTGO did not find a current Township page establishing a separate routine residential garage-sale permit requirement.

Township residents should use current Township registration instructions for organized sale events and confirm any independent-sale requirements with the Township Clerk before advertising.

2026 Chathams + Madison Fall Yard Sale

Saturday, October 17, 2026

Chatham Township's 2026 Environmental Commission planning calendar lists the shared fall yard sale with Madison and Chatham Borough for October 17. The coordinated sale helps residents reuse household items and keep usable material out of the waste stream.

Check the Borough, Township or event organizers closer to the date for registration, map participation, hours, rain-date information and any municipality-specific requirements.

Pets, Lost Animals & Animal Control

Chatham Borough

The Borough requires annual dog and cat licensing. The current 2026 fee schedule lists $21 for neutered/spayed pets and $24 for unneutered pets, with a $10 late fee after January 31.

Animal-control requests are routed through Chatham Borough Police Dispatch at 973-635-8000. The Borough also lists animal-control service at 908-722-1271.

Borough Animal Licensing

Chatham Township

All dogs and cats in Chatham Township must be registered annually by January 31. Current rabies documentation is required, and pet licenses may be submitted through the Township's online SDL process.

Animal-control inquiries are handled by Chatham Township Police at the non-emergency number 973-377-0100.

Township Animal Control

Animal safety: Do not rely only on a classified post for an injured, aggressive or endangered animal. Contact the appropriate municipal animal-control/police service, shelter or emergency service when immediate assistance is needed.

Official Legal Notices Are Separate

Community notices can fit within classifieds, but official government notices should always be read through the municipality's legal-notice system.

Chatham Borough Legal Notices

The Borough maintains a current online legal-notice archive containing ordinances, bid notices, board decisions, special-meeting notices and other official publications.

Borough 2026 Legal Notices

Chatham Township Legal Notices

The Township maintains an active Legal Notices section with ordinances, Planning Board and Board of Adjustment actions, bid notices and meeting notices.

Protect Personal InformationDo not publish Social Security numbers, banking details, passwords or unnecessary private information.

Meet SafelyFor item exchanges, consider a public, well-lit location during daylight hours and avoid carrying unnecessary cash.

No Regulated or Illegal GoodsDo not submit firearms, ammunition, weapons, controlled substances, prescription medications, nicotine/tobacco products, alcohol, recalled goods, stolen property or other restricted items.

No CounterfeitsListings must involve authentic property the seller has the legal right to sell or transfer.

Pet Welfare Comes FirstUse classifieds for missing/found pets and responsible rehoming notices, not questionable animal sales or unsafe transfers.

Tickets & EventsClearly state the event date and ticket source. Do not advertise duplicated, fraudulent or invalid tickets.

Licensed ServicesPeople offering regulated professional services should hold any license, registration or insurance required by New Jersey law.
