Rochester Hills rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Rochester Hills, the city code bans placing any article or obstruction in a street without a permit, but it doesn't prohibit temporary obstructions that come with moving vehicles and things to and from the property next to the street.
Rochester Hills bars placing any article or obstruction in a street unless the streets article permits it, while allowing temporary obstructions incidental to moving vehicles and things to and from the abutting property; occupying a street for construction or any other purpose needs a permit from the public service director and a cash deposit. Zoning bars parking or storing step vans, cube vans, flatbed trucks and similar commercial vehicles in residential districts, and limits recreational vehicles and utility trailers not owned by the occupant to 72 hours on unapproved land. When the mayor declares a winter weather emergency, street parking is banned starting two hours after the announcement, except on blocks already cleared curb to curb.
