Hamilton County sets no countywide limit on parking commercial trucks or trailers at a residence. Restrictions on semis, box trucks, and commercial vehicles in residential areas come from your city, village, or township zoning code, not the county.
Ohio municipalities and townships commonly limit or prohibit parking large commercial vehicles overnight in residentially zoned areas, but that authority is exercised at the local level under municipal home rule or township zoning (ORC Chapter 519). Hamilton County itself does not adopt a countywide commercial-vehicle parking ordinance. Statewide weight, size, and highway parking rules for commercial vehicles exist in ORC Title 45 (Motor Vehicles), and the Hamilton County Sheriff enforces traffic law in the unincorporated townships, but where a commercial vehicle may be stored at a home is a local zoning question.
Penalties for parking a commercial vehicle in a residential zone are set by the municipal or township zoning code. State highway and weight violations fall under ORC Title 45.
