West Hartford rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In West Hartford, placing or leaving any material, object or obstruction on a street requires a permit from the Director of Public Works.
West Hartford requires a Public Works permit before anything is placed or left on a street, and a $25 Right of Way Obstruction Permit covers work that temporarily blocks a sidewalk or travel lane. Commercial vehicles and trucks may not park in residential zones except for delivery, service or business calls, and each 20 feet of vehicle or trailer counts as a separate violation. The code's 2 a.m. to 5 a.m. street parking ban has been suspended since September 28, 2023 while the Town Council reviews it, and parking in temporary snow-removal no-parking areas is prohibited.
