Kokomo rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Kokomo, a truck wider than 8 feet, higher than 10 feet or longer than 28 feet, load included, may not park on a city street except while loading or unloading.
In Kokomo, the city code bars trucks over 8 feet wide, 10 feet high or 28 feet long from parking on streets except while loading or unloading, and limits recreational vehicles and trailers to 72 hours in one spot. A dumpster in a street or right-of-way needs a permit applied for at the City Hall permit office at least 48 hours ahead, costing $20 for 30 days on a non-metered residential street, and it may not sit within 75 feet of an intersection without the City Engineer's approval. Once a snow removal condition is declared, no vehicle may park on a designated snow route.
