Little Rock limits the parking of commercial vehicles in residential areas. Heavy commercial vehicles over a certain weight are generally prohibited from parking overnight on residential streets or in residential driveways.
Commercial vehicles, particularly heavy trucks, tractor-trailers, and construction equipment, are restricted from parking in residential zoning districts in Little Rock. Standard passenger commercial vehicles used daily by residents (such as work vans or pickup trucks) are generally allowed. Large commercial vehicles over 10,000 lbs GVWR or with more than two axles should not be parked in residential areas. The zoning code restricts uses that would create a commercial appearance in residential neighborhoods.
Parking prohibited commercial vehicles in residential areas can result in code enforcement citations and fines. Towing may be ordered for persistent violations.
