Yucaipa, CA Parking Rules: Loading Zones (2026)

The Yucaipa Municipal Code sections read for this page print no loading-zone hours schedule. Commercial loading is handled through Chapter 10.04, the overweight and oversized vehicle restrictions the City Council adopted by Ord. 162 in 1997.

Subsection A of § 10.04.020 bars any truck tractor, motor truck, semi-trailer or combination over a manufacturer's gross vehicle weight of ten thousand (10,000) pounds from parking or standing on any street, highway, alley, public right-of-way or residential property in the City of Yucaipa. Subsection B then lists the exceptions that work as the city's commercial loading rules. On a designated truck route, the vehicle can park for a period not exceeding two consecutive hours. On a street that is not a designated truck route, it can park while making pickups or deliveries of goods, wares or merchandise from or to a property adjacent to or abutting that street. It can also park in aid of an ongoing service to, or on, a property in the same block. Subsection C takes the entire section out of the community industrial land use district.

Two spacing rules in subsection A still apply to a loading truck. No part of a commercial vehicle can sit within thirty (30) feet of a driveway opening other than the driver's own driveway, and no part can sit within fifty (50) feet of another truck, trailer or semi-trailer. A vehicle ten feet or more in height cannot stop within one hundred (100) feet of an intersection or an official traffic control device.

Alleys have their own line in § 10.12.035: delivery of freight by commercial vehicles will not be prohibited, citing California Vehicle Code § 21102.1, but at least ten feet of roadway width must stay open and no vehicle can block an abutting driveway entrance. Official truck routes are those the City Council designates by resolution under § 10.04.060(B).
