Maple Grove, MN Parking Rules: Commercial Vehicle Restrictions (2026)

Maple Grove restricts heavy and commercial vehicles on its streets. Under the parking rules, a vehicle with a gross weight of 12,000 pounds or more is limited to 15 minutes of street parking unless it is actively engaged in loading or unloading. Trailers are subject to the same time restrictions as other vehicles parked in that location. On top of the weight-based limit, all the general street rules apply to commercial vehicles: no parking on any city street between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. year round, and no continuous parking for more than four hours. The ordinance also bars using a street to display a vehicle for sale and bars washing, greasing or repairing a vehicle on the street except for emergencies. Together these provisions mean a semi, box truck or other heavy commercial vehicle generally cannot be stored on a public street and certainly cannot be left overnight. Drivers making deliveries should complete loading or unloading promptly. In alleys, vehicles may not park except for up to one hour for loading or unloading. Violations are subject to citation and towing at the owner's expense.
