==Placement==
{{Political campaigning}}
Lawn signs are often also placed near [[polling place]]s on election day, although in most jurisdictions, there are legal restrictions on campaigning within a certain distance from a voting facility.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20120721020418/http://www.campaigntrailyardsigns.com/about-campaign-signs/election-sign-rules/ Election Sign Rules]</ref> In most states, there are also restrictions on where these signs can be placed. There are some residential areas that have ordinances prohibiting any posting of yard signs.

The signs are typically placed close to the road for greater visibility.<ref>{{cite book|last=Low|first=Steve|title=The Big Lawn Care Marketing Book|year=2008|publisher=Riggs Publications|isbn=978-1440402500|pages=448}}</ref> In most highways a sign may not be erected so that the part of the sign face nearest a highway is within five feet of the highway's right of way line.

Signs come in various shapes and sizes, but are most often rectangular and between 12 and 40&nbsp;inches on each side. They are usually produced in packages that include lawn sign wires since most of these lawn signs need to be placed on a grass or dirt surface.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.squaresigns.com/blog/benefits-of-acrylic-pvc-and-yard-signs|title=What Are The Advantages Of Yard Signs?|date=17 December 2018 |website=Square Signs|author-first=Jessica|author-last=Goldsworthy|access-date=14 August 2023}}</ref>
