Yuba City, CA Parking Rules: Commercial Vehicle Restrictions (2026)

Yuba City Municipal Code Title 4 (Public Safety), Chapter 9 (Traffic), Article 14 governs Oversize Vehicle Parking on city streets. The Yuba City Police Department defines an oversize vehicle as any vehicle over 25 feet in length, 7 feet in width, or 7 feet in height — a threshold that captures most box trucks, tractor-trailers, large work trucks with utility bodies, and full-size buses. Once tagged, an oversized vehicle on a city street can be towed within 48 hours, well short of the 120-hour (5-day) period that applies to ordinary vehicles under California Vehicle Code §22651(k). California Vehicle Code §22507 also authorizes local prohibition or restriction of commercial vehicle parking when signs are posted. Note that Yuba City lies in Sutter County (not Yuba County); Yuba County's separate Chapter 9.21 commercial-vehicle restrictions do not apply within Yuba City limits. There is no general residential-zone ban on parking a commercial vehicle on a private driveway in Yuba City, but the same 6-foot front-wall screening rule that applies to RVs/boats limits open storage of larger vehicles on residential lots.
