West Palm Beach, FL Parking Rules: Overnight Parking (2026)

Section 86-225 opens by stating that 'City parking garage facilities are not intended for long term unattended parking/storage of vehicles,' framing the five- and seven-day limits that follow as an anti-storage rule rather than a nightly curfew. A vehicle may be parked overnight, and even for several nights in a row, without violating the section, so long as it exits the facility before five consecutive business days elapse; only vehicles that stay parked or stored past that window, and especially past seven consecutive business days, are subject to towing under the section, with the towing cost charged to the vehicle's owner.

The rule sits in Article IV, Division 1 of Chapter 86 alongside the city's other stopping, standing and parking rules, and is administered by the parking division that runs the garages under §§ 86-31 and 86-32, which set garage rates and fees by resolution of the city commission. Because the section is limited to 'city parking facility,' it governs the city's own garages and does not by its terms extend to private garages or surface lots not owned or operated by the city.
