Duval County does not impose a general countywide overnight parking ban on public streets. Vehicles may remain overnight as long as they are legally registered, moved within 72 hours, and not in a posted no-parking zone. Residential permit zones in Riverside/Springfield restrict overnight non-resident parking.
Jacksonville-Duval Ordinance Code §804 does not prohibit overnight street parking generally. Vehicles must: be registered and insured, not blocking driveways/hydrants/crosswalks, parked with traffic direction, and moved at least every 72 hours (FL §316.1945 abandoned threshold). Residential Permit Parking Districts in Riverside, Springfield, and near UF Health Jacksonville restrict overnight parking to permit-holders. Commercial overnight is restricted to §656.404(d) commercial-vehicle rules. Big-box retailers (Walmart, Cracker Barrel) set their own overnight RV policies.
72-hour rule violation: tow for abandoned vehicle. Permit-zone violation: $25-$50 ticket. Most first-time violations issue a warning sticker first.
