Commercial vehicles over a defined weight or size threshold cannot be parked overnight on residential streets or in residential driveways in South Jordan, except for short-term loading, service calls, or deliveries.
South Jordan restricts overnight parking of commercial vehicles in residential zones to protect neighborhood character and safety. Vehicles exceeding approximately 10,000 pounds GVWR, commercial trailers, tractor units, dump trucks, tow trucks, box trucks, and similar heavy commercial vehicles cannot be stored on residential streets or within front setbacks of residential lots. Service vehicles (plumbing vans, contractor pickups under the weight threshold) that are clearly marked for a home-based business operator are generally allowed in driveways if they fit typical passenger-vehicle dimensions. Short-term exceptions apply for active deliveries, moving trucks (typically 48–72 hours), or service calls. Commercial vehicle parking violations can be reported via the city's Code Enforcement line. In commercial and industrial zones, commercial vehicles must park within designated lots and cannot block public rights-of-way. Trailers being offered for sale cannot be parked on public streets. Utah Code §41-6a-1401 et seq. also provides background authority for these local regulations.
