Mount Vernon rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Mount Vernon, no street-obstruction permit is needed to load or unload goods across the sidewalk to a truck standing at the curb, as long as the loading is done as promptly as possible.
In Mount Vernon, loading goods across the sidewalk to a truck at the curb doesn't need a permit if it's done promptly, but anything else that occupies the street needs a written permit from the Commissioner, valid for up to 30 days. Commercial vehicles, as the code defines them, may not park on city streets from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. outside designated commercial parking areas, except while loading or unloading. A snowfall of three inches or more within 24 hours is a public emergency, and no vehicle may stay parked on a street while it is being cleared of snow.
