Haverhill rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Haverhill, a portable storage container such as a POD needs a regulated storage container permit from the Inspectional Services Department before it is placed, and a permit covers no more than two containers for up to six consecutive months.
In Haverhill, the zoning code treats PODs and similar portable storage containers as regulated storage containers: up to two can be used for up to six consecutive months with a permit from Inspectional Services, while more containers or longer stays need a City Council permit. A trailer may not be parked or stored on a public street for more than 24 hours in any 30-day period without City Council and Mayor approval, and street service zones allow 30 minutes for loading. During a declared snow emergency, parking is banned on snow emergency routes and limited to one announced side of other streets, and an extreme snow emergency bans parking on all city streets.
