Oversized-vehicle parking on residential streets is a municipal matter in Essex County under NJ Title 39. The county restricts commercial and oversized vehicles only on its park roads and grounds.
Rules on parking large trucks, buses, trailers, and oversized vehicles in neighborhoods are set by each Essex County municipality, and weight and size limits on state and local roads come from NJ Title 39. The county's applicable rule is for its parks: commercial vehicles rated 10,001 pounds or more may not operate in a county park or on park roads without the Director's authorization, aside from the named through-streets. On county park grounds, all vehicles must park only in designated areas, so oversized vehicles cannot be stored there.
Municipal oversized-vehicle fines commonly $50 to $250. Unauthorized commercial vehicles in county parks may be ejected and seized by county officers.
