Rahway rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Rahway, buses and trucks may not park on city streets between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., though the ban does not apply to trucks under two tons unloaded weight.
Rahway bans bus and truck parking on city streets from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., except for passenger-car-type commercial vehicles and trucks under two tons unloaded weight, and trailers can never be left on a street detached from their towing vehicle. Vehicles actively picking up or delivering materials are exempt from the residential-zone limit on trucks, vans and trailers. A dumpster in a public area needs a $50 permit good for 10 days, with a $300 deposit, and snow covering the street triggers a parking ban on the listed snow emergency streets.
