Oakland FAQ
Can I park my contractor van at home overnight?
If the van is under 10,000 lbs GVWR, not oversized, and parked legally, yes. If over 10,000 lbs or oversized it cannot be on a residential street between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Driveway storage may still raise zoning issues if the vehicle is part of a home-based business.
