Summary

Daytona Beach treats parked commercial vehicles as outside storage and bans it: trucks over one ton and other commercial vehicles cannot sit on any public right-of-way or private lot (outside an enclosed garage) more than two hours a day, and trucks or trailers with more than four wheels or over 10,000 GVW face the same two-hour cap on private property.

No beach concession or other commercial vehicles, wagons, or trailers, and no trucks in excess of one-ton capacity shall be parked for more than two hours on any calendar day on any public right-of-way, or any private lot except in a completely enclosed garage. ... No trucks or trailers with more than four wheels or over 10,000 GVW shall be parked outside an enclosure on private property for a period of more than two hours on any calendar day, except that trucks or trailers moving household goods shall be allowed to park on private property for a period not to exceed two days.

Full Breakdown

City Code Sec. 94-56(a) treats parking large commercial or recreational vehicles when not in use as outside storage, which is generally prohibited. Under subsection (1), no beach concession vehicle, commercial vehicle, wagon, trailer, or truck over one-ton capacity may be parked for more than two hours on any calendar day on any public right-of-way, or on any private lot except inside a completely enclosed garage. Under subsection (2), trucks or trailers with more than four wheels or exceeding 10,000 pounds GVW cannot be parked outside an enclosure on private property for more than two hours per calendar day, with a carve-out letting household-moving trucks and trailers park on private property up to two full days.

Sec. 94-57 sets enforcement: a violation occurring on a public right-of-way is a parking-ticket violation punishable under Sec. 94-3(a), and the vehicle may additionally be impounded under Sec. 94-4. A violation on private property may be remedied under the Land Development Code's remedies for illegal storage/parking of commercial vehicles, or the vehicle may be removed by the city under the removal procedure in Sec. 94-183, shortened here to a 24-hour notice period rather than the standard 48 hours used for front-yard vehicle nuisances. 189, cross-referenced directly in this chapter.

Violations & Fines

A commercial vehicle, truck over one ton, or trailer with more than four wheels or over 10,000 GVW left parked beyond the two-hour daily limit on a public right-of-way is a parking-ticket violation under Sec. 94-3(a), and the vehicle may be impounded under Sec. 94-4. The same violation on private property can trigger city removal under Sec. 94-183 after just 24 hours' notice, shorter than the standard front-yard-vehicle notice period.
