Auburn, WA Parking Rules: Commercial & Oversized Vehicles (2026)

065, adopted by Ordinance 6019 in 2006 and last carried forward by Ordinance 6959 in 2024, splits Auburn's residential zoning districts into two tiers of commercial vehicle restriction. Subsection A imposes an outright ban: no person may park any commercial vehicle on property zoned R-2, R-3, R-4, or within a planned unit development (PUD), regardless of how briefly the vehicle is parked or whether the property owner also uses it for a home business. Subsection B is a numeric cap rather than a ban for the remaining low-density residential zones: no more than one commercial vehicle may be parked on any R-1 zoned property, and no more than two commercial vehicles may be parked on RC (residential conservancy) zoned property.

050 apply to any parking area used to store the vehicle. The chapter sits inside Title 18's off-street parking and loading chapter, so it governs private-property parking rather than the on-street curb regulations found elsewhere in the code.
