Goodyear, AZ Parking Rules: Commercial & Oversized Vehicles (2026)

Section 13-3-13(A) of the Goodyear City Code makes it unlawful for anyone who owns, has custody of, or controls a commercial motor vehicle to park or store it, occupied or not, on any public or private road, roadway, or right-of-way in the City. Section 13-3-21 defines a COMMERCIAL MOTOR VEHICLE broadly to include tractors, trailers, semi-trailers, vans, trucks, flatbed pickups, and mobile equipment that meet any one of several size thresholds: height over seven feet, width over seven and a half feet, length over 20 feet including attached trailers, a manufacturer's gross vehicle weight rating over 10,000 pounds, or any vehicle hauling hazardous materials, waste, or substances.

Section 13-3-13(B) allows the vehicle to park only while actively loading or unloading persons or property, while performing a utility, emergency, or construction service on nearby property for up to eight hours, or while disabled and awaiting emergency repair or a tow for up to two hours. Emergency vehicles of a political subdivision, the federal government, or a public utility are exempt while their drivers perform emergency duties. Outside those narrow windows, storing a semi-tractor, box truck, or other commercial vehicle on a residential street or in a driveway right-of-way is unlawful citywide, regardless of zoning district.

The rule targets the vehicle itself, not just where it sits, so a qualifying truck cannot be parked overnight even on the owner's own street frontage.
