Summary

Cherry Hill Township prohibits parking any camper or trailer, including camper trailers, landscaping equipment trailers and boat trailers, on any county or municipal street between midnight and 6:00 a.m. under Code § 10-9.2, keeping RVs and boats off public streets overnight townwide.

No person shall park any camper or trailer upon any street between the hours specified. This shall include camper trailers, landscaping equipment trailers, and boat trailers. Name of Street Sides Hours Locations All County and municipal streets Both 12:00 midnight and 6:00 a.m. All

Full Breakdown

Section 10-9.2's street table applies to "All County and municipal streets," both sides, for the hours of 12:00 midnight to 6:00 a.m., with no street-by-street exceptions listed. The ordinance text specifically names three vehicle types the ban reaches beyond a plain camper or trailer: camper trailers, landscaping equipment trailers, and boat trailers, closing off the argument that a boat-hauling trailer somehow falls outside "camper or trailer." The section was adopted by Ordinance No. 80-2 in January 1980 and amended by Ordinance No. 2015-7 in April 2015, so the current midnight-to-6:00 a.m. window and the boat-trailer and landscaping-trailer language reflect the 2015 update rather than the original 1980 text.

Because the prohibition is written as "upon any street," it governs on-street parking only; it does not by its terms reach a vehicle parked in a resident's own driveway or on other private property, though a separate zoning provision could still limit accessory storage there. The restriction runs alongside, but is distinct from, § 10-9.1's five-ton truck ban and § 10-9.4's truck routes, both of which target commercial trucks rather than recreational trailers and boats.

Violations & Fines

No dedicated fine appears in § 10-9.2 itself, so Code § 1-5.1's general penalty applies: up to a $2,000 fine, up to 90 days' imprisonment, or up to 90 days' community service, at the Municipal Court's discretion. Under § 1-5.5 each night the camper or boat trailer remains parked on the street is a separate violation, and § 1-5.3 adds a further fine for a repeat offense within a year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I leave my boat trailer parked on the street overnight in Cherry Hill?
No. Code § 10-9.2 specifically names boat trailers among the vehicles barred from all county and municipal streets between midnight and 6:00 a.m., with no exception by street.
Does Cherry Hill's overnight trailer ban cover my driveway?
The ordinance bars parking "upon any street," so § 10-9.2 does not reach a camper or boat trailer kept in a private driveway; it governs on-street parking only.
What kinds of vehicles does Cherry Hill's § 10-9.2 restrict?
The section covers campers and trailers generally and specifically lists camper trailers, landscaping equipment trailers, and boat trailers as included, all barred from Township streets between midnight and 6:00 a.m.
