Glenn County, CA Parking Rules: Oversized Vehicle Parking (2026)

Glenn County controls oversized and overweight vehicles mainly through road weight limits and transportation permits rather than residential street-parking bans. Chapter 11.16 (Weight And Load Restrictions) reduces permissible weights on named roads under Vehicle Code Sections 35701, 35706 and 35707: Section 11.16.010 reduces the permissible weight of vehicles and loads on County Road 48 between County Highway 99W and County Road D 'to twelve tons gross,' and Section 11.16.040 reduces the permissible weight of commercial vehicles on Huggins Drive between County Road 200 and County Road G 'to five tons gross.' Additional reductions apply to Hamilton City streets and to Stoneridge and Canella Drives, with signs erected by the Public Works Director. Under Chapter 11.09, Section 11.09.110 (Transportation Permits) requires that 'where vehicles exceed the maximum legal size, weight or load limits established by the California Vehicle Code, a County transportation permit shall be required in order to use County Roads,' and the Director of Public Works may restrict the roads, dates and times of movement and require safety precautions. Section 11.09.100 lets the Director impose a temporary road weight-limit reduction of up to 90 days where intensive heavy hauling threatens a road. For residential parking, an oversized commercial vehicle over 10,000 pounds cannot park on a county road fronting residentially zoned property in the Orland or Willows spheres (Section 11.09.040).
