Dalton rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Dalton, state-licensed commercial vehicles, buses and recreational vehicles may not park overnight on a street in a residential district, but may park temporarily to deliver or pick up goods or to perform work at the residence.
Dalton's zoning code bars state-licensed commercial vehicles, buses and recreational vehicles from parking overnight on residential streets, while allowing them to park temporarily to deliver or pick up goods or do work at the residence. The traffic code separately bans commercial vehicles, which it defines to include vehicles of 10,001 pounds or more, from parking on residential streets except as needed to deliver, work or pick up goods there, and double-axle trucks, tractors and trailers are barred from certain listed streets. Nothing may be placed in a street, sidewalk or alley except for building purposes, and unreasonably loud loading or unloading is prohibited from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m.
