Hutto, TX Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

Hutto Code of Ordinances § 22.04.004(a) treats any trailer, haul trailer, house trailer, recreational vehicle, tractor-trailer, semitrailer, boat trailer, all-terrain vehicle, or dirt bike left on a public street for more than four consecutive hours in a 24-hour period as an obstruction in the public right-of-way, whether or not it blocks travel. Subsection (b) adds a distance rule: no vehicle may park within 15 feet of a cluster mailbox unit, protecting mail carrier access. Under subsection (c), a Hutto peace officer may request that the vehicle be towed at the owner's expense once the four-hour window has run, without waiting for a separate obstruction complaint.

Parking a heavy truck rated at 12,000 pounds GVW or more raises a different limit under § 22.04.006, and storing a boat, RV, or trailer in a yard rather than on the street falls under the unpaved-surface rule at § 22.04.009, so moving a rig off the curb onto grass does not automatically make it compliant. Enforcement runs through § 22.04.003: a violation is a misdemeanor punished under the general penalty in § 1.01.009, capped at $500.00 absent a more specific fine, and each day the vehicle remains past the four-hour mark is charged as a separate offense. Hutto's police department typically handles obstruction and towing requests, with code enforcement following up on repeat violations.
