New Britain rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In New Britain, a vehicle over 10,000 pounds gross weight, or over 30 feet long and 8 feet high, may not park on any street for more than 30 minutes unless it is commercially engaged while parked.
New Britain limits vehicles over 10,000 pounds, or over 30 feet long and 8 feet high, to 30 minutes on any street unless commercially engaged, with a $250 fine, and bars commercial vehicles from parking overnight on city streets. Obstructing a street with any impediment needs a Department of Public Works permit backed by a bond, and no vehicle may stand to load or unload in a way that blocks traffic. From December 1 to April 15, snow emergency routes are closed to parking from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m., and a mayoral snow ban can extend to secondary streets.
