Parking and permits

Garfield rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.

Key rule: In Garfield, vans, trucks and recreational vehicles longer than 22 feet and wider than 8 feet may not park on city streets under the overnight-parking rules, though they may stand for up to 15 minutes to load or unload.

Garfield's overnight-parking rules bar vans, trucks and recreational vehicles over 22 feet long and 8 feet wide from parking on city streets, allowing only 15 minutes of standing to load or unload, and separately restrict oversized vehicles over 5,000 pounds. Street parking between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. is restricted citywide, with the code requiring a resident or visitor permit for those hours. A street dumpster permit costs $50 from Public Works, needs Police and Construction Code approval, and allows no more than five days at one spot; after a snowfall or a declared snow emergency, the snow-street parking ban lasts 12 hours after the snow stops unless the City Manager extends it.
