Full Breakdown
Collier County does not publish a single oversized-vehicle ordinance, but size limits appear in two places. Code Section 130-97 exempts from the commercial-vehicle prohibition only automobiles, passenger vans, and pickups of one ton or less that do not exceed 7.5 feet high, 7.0 feet wide, or 25 feet long; anything larger must be garaged or screened in the rear. Recreational vehicles, large boats, and trailers are governed by Section 130-96, which restricts storage on residential lots to a rear yard, carport, enclosed building, or waterway davits. Oversized loads moving on county roads are separately regulated through FDOT permitting.
Violations & Fines
Code Enforcement issues notices for oversized commercial or recreational vehicles stored in violation; unresolved cases carry daily fines and liens until corrected.
