Chelan County, WA Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

170(10) of the Chelan County Code governs vehicle and other outdoor storage on residential property. 100. Operable agricultural equipment used for an agricultural purpose is exempt from the count entirely. Required front yard areas cannot be used for any outside storage under subsection (B), and whatever is stored outside, under subsection (A), has to be kept orderly enough that it creates no fire, safety, health or sanitary hazard. 100 separately limits hulk, abandoned or derelict vehicles and trailers to three per lot, and the owner has fourteen days after official notice to remove them before the county can remove them at the owner's expense; screening a vehicle inside an enclosed structure or behind a visual screen from public view lets an owner keep it regardless of that cap.

Temporary storage containers brought in during construction of a permanent residence are capped at 288 square feet and must be removed before final inspection or certificate of occupancy under subsection (F). 170(6) allows temporary occupancy of up to two recreational vehicles per lot for no more than ten days in any sixty-day period, parked on an off-street space outside any required front or side yard, as long as no rent is charged.
