Parking and permits

Richardson rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.

Key rule: In Richardson, no truck or trailer may stop, stand or park on any street from sundown to sunup, and a box truck may use a residential street only to expeditiously load or unload.

Richardson city code bars stopping, standing or parking a truck or trailer on any street from sundown to sunup, and bars vehicles longer than 23 feet (or wider than 8 feet or taller than 10 feet) from residential property and adjacent streets except to expeditiously load or unload. Vehicles may use an alley only to load or unload for up to 30 minutes, and from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m. street parking next to a home is limited to its residents, with an exception for temporary loading. Placing a dumpster or POD in the right-of-way requires a Public Street Use Permit, and the city's own Rent-A-Bin containers go only on driveways.
