Edmonds, WA Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

60's vehicles-in-residential-zones rules: no more than two recreational vehicles of any kind may be parked outside an approved enclosed structure anywhere on a property, and only one side yard may be used to store them. The code's definition of 'recreational vehicle' covers a vehicular-type unit primarily designed for recreational camping or travel that has its own motive power or is towed or mounted on another vehicle, expressly naming travel trailers, fifth-wheel trailers, folding camping trailers, truck campers and motor homes as included units, broad enough to reach most trailered boats as towed recreational units.

040(D) describes, the subsection requires the vehicle to be parked off site during extended periods when it is not in use. The general residential vehicle standards layered around this limit also apply: no vehicle may intrude into the public right-of-way or block sight visibility from a driveway or road under subsection (G), none may sit unattended on blocks or jacks under subsection (E), and subsection (I) caps any vehicle's length at one-half of the lot's required minimum width or 40 feet, whichever is less. 050 bars using any recreational vehicle for habitation in the city, with a narrow exception allowing a visiting nonresident's RV to be occupied on a resident's property for up to 60 days in a calendar year.
