Northville Township rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.

Key rule: In Northville Township, a single portable moving and storage container may be placed on an occupied lot for loading or unloading for up to 14 days, and it must sit on an improved driveway surface, not in the public right-of-way.

Northville Township (the Charter Township, not the City of Northville) allows one portable moving and storage container on an occupied lot for up to 14 days for a move, on an improved driveway and never in the public right-of-way or a private road easement. Recreation vehicles or trailers may sit in the front yard for up to 48 hours for loading and unloading, and a commercial vehicle or trailer, as the state vehicle code defines it, may only stand or park while it is actively being fueled, repaired, loaded or unloaded.
