St. Louis generally permits overnight on-street parking in residential neighborhoods except during snow emergencies or on posted street cleaning routes. Metered and downtown areas have specific overnight rules that vary by block.
St. Louis does not have a blanket overnight parking ban on residential streets. Vehicles may park overnight subject to the 48-hour consecutive parking limit. However, snow emergency routes (marked with signs) prohibit parking once the Mayor declares a snow emergency, typically when 2+ inches of snow accumulates. Street cleaning days (schedules vary by ward) also require vehicles to be moved, generally one day per month in warm-weather months. Downtown and entertainment districts may have posted overnight restrictions to discourage long-term storage. Residential Permit Parking (RPP) zones often run 24/7, meaning overnight visitors without permits can be ticketed.
Snow emergency route: $50 plus tow. Street cleaning: $20. RPP overnight violation: $20.
