Commercial vehicles and trucks over a set weight (commonly 10,000 lbs GVW) are generally prohibited from overnight parking on New Rochelle residential streets. Daytime loading is allowed. Truck routes channel heavy traffic to designated arterials.
The city's vehicle and traffic code prohibits commercial trucks and trailers from overnight parking in residential districts; allowable daytime parking is usually limited to active loading/unloading. Designated truck routes steer through-traffic away from residential streets. Home-based tradespeople typically must garage their work vans or park them in an enclosed rear yard if they exceed size thresholds.
Overnight commercial-vehicle parking tickets typically run in the $75-$250 range per night. Truck-route violations carry separate NYS V&T summonses. Repeat violators may be towed.
