The City of Humble restricts the parking and storage of commercial vehicles in residential zoning districts under the zoning ordinance. Large commercial vehicles, heavy equipment, and vehicles exceeding one-ton rated capacity are generally restricted from overnight storage in residential neighborhoods. Vehicles with mounted commercial apparatus, oversized commercial signage, or equipment racks extending beyond the vehicle profile face additional restrictions. Semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, and construction equipment may not be parked on residential streets or properties. Exceptions apply for vehicles actively making deliveries or providing services to a residence. Smaller work trucks and passenger-type vehicles used for business that do not exceed standard residential vehicle dimensions are generally permitted. Some subdivisions within Humble have deed restrictions that further limit commercial vehicle parking. Contact Community Development at (281) 446-4331 for commercial vehicle parking inquiries.
