Hampton rules for moving trucks, trailers and containers.
Key rule: In Hampton, any vehicle other than a passenger car or a pickup or sedan delivery truck of one ton or under may park on a street for only one hour unless it is loading or unloading (or on a commercial or industrial street), with a $125 citation for each hour over.
In Hampton, City Code 21-136 limits most vehicles other than passenger cars and pickup or sedan delivery trucks of one ton or under to one hour on any street, except while loading or unloading or on streets in commercial or industrial districts, and charges $125 for each hour in violation. In residential parking permit areas, the city traffic engineer can issue free visitor permits for up to seven days and temporary permits for up to 30 days, though a permit does not reserve a space. During flooding events the city manager can bar parking on designated dangerous flood areas, and the sidewalk code allows two hours to clear crates and boxes after unloading.
