New Brunswick rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In New Brunswick, a truck over 5,500 pounds or a trailer may not be parked on any public street between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., so a rental truck or trailer has to be off the street overnight.
In New Brunswick, trucks over 5,500 pounds, trailers, boats and campers may not be parked on any public street between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. Metered spaces can be reserved by renting a meter bag through the New Brunswick Parking Authority, while dumpsters, roll-offs and drop boxes in the street need a city engineer permit that is issued only for authorized construction or demolition projects. Many residential blocks are permit-only, though marked contractor, service and delivery vehicles may park while working at a home there.
