Lansing rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Lansing, semitrucks may park in residential or commercial zoning districts only for the limited purpose of loading and unloading.
Lansing's code bars semitruck tractor units from being parked or stored in residential and commercial districts except for loading and unloading, and defines a commercial vehicle by its business use and a gross weight of 10,000 pounds or more. Recreational vehicles cannot be kept on residential streets, but may sit on the street or driveway in front of the home for up to 48 hours to load or unload. After snowfalls of two inches or more, street parking follows an odd-even rule, and homes with a driveway must park in it.
