Temple rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Temple, a trailer may not be parked on a public roadway unless it is hitched to a motor vehicle, and even then not for more than 48 hours in one place.
Temple city code bars parking a trailer such as a utility trailer on a public roadway unless it is hitched to a motor vehicle, and limits a hitched trailer to 48 hours in one place. A rule restricting trailers and large trucks on residential property does not apply while they are expeditiously loading or unloading, and trucks with more than two axles may park on streets only to load, unload or make emergency repairs. The noise code prohibits loud and excessive noise from loading or unloading a vehicle.
