Butte rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Butte, the Butte-Silver Bow code makes it unlawful to place, keep or store a portable storage unit on any right-of-way, public street or public sidewalk.
In Butte, the consolidated Butte-Silver Bow government bars portable storage units from any right-of-way, public street or sidewalk, with fines of up to $500. Trucks, trailers and semitrailers over 8,000 pounds gross vehicle weight may park on residential streets only for expeditious loading or unloading, but that rule does not apply while they are moving household goods. Vehicles longer than 19 feet or taller than 7.5 feet may stay on a street for no more than 48 hours in any seven-day period, alleys are for loading and unloading only, and the chief executive can declare emergency parking prohibitions for snow plowing that take effect at least eight hours after notice.
