The coat of arms was granted to the Urban District Council of Sale by The College of Arms by letters patent dated 23 September 1920. At this time Sale was part of the county of Cheshire.

The arms continued in use by the borough council on incorporation in 1935. An additional grant of heraldic supporters was made on 15 August 1945 to commemorate the tenth anniversary of borough status.

It is the full set of arms that is displayed here.
