What do you need?

How it works

RV rules split into two parts: parking on the street, often capped by hours or banned without a permit, and storing on your own lot, where many cities ban the front yard and require a paved side or rear yard spot.

  1. Check the street limit: hours, days, and whether a permit is needed.
  2. On your lot, check whether front yard or driveway storage is allowed.
  3. Look for size limits, often 20 to 24 feet long or about 7 feet high.
  4. Do not live in or hook up the RV on the street unless the city allows it.

What it costs

Street permits are usually inexpensive. If home storage is not allowed, a storage lot is the main ongoing cost.
