Trinity County has no general county-wide ordinance banning RV, boat or trailer storage on private rural land. On county roads the California Vehicle Code controls, and the County's Snow Removal Policy requires trailers and personal property be kept at least five feet off the roadway so plows can pass in snow areas.
The entire County of Trinity is unincorporated, so Trinity County's own Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) and the California Vehicle Code govern recreational-vehicle, boat and utility-trailer parking on county roads. Trinity County does not publish a stand-alone ordinance limiting where a resident may store an RV, boat or trailer on their own rural property; that is addressed through Title 17 zoning and nuisance review. The one place the County code specifically names recreational vehicles and trailers is Trinity County Code §10.48.035, which bars 'trucks, pickup trucks, vans, recreational vehicles, travel trailers, motor carriers, buses or similar vehicles' from parking on described portions of Court Street in Weaverville, where only compact cars or vehicles under five feet in height may park. Elsewhere on county roads, CVC §22500 prohibits parking in front of a driveway, on a crosswalk, within an intersection or in posted no-parking zones, applying equally to RVs, boats and trailers. The County's Snow Removal Policy #2010-01 is explicit for the snow communities of Weaverville, Trinity Center, Lewiston, Hayfork and Ruth: 'Do not park vehicles or place your trash cans on roadways or along the edge of roadways... Park or place trash cans a minimum of five (5) feet off the roadway on your property.'
On Court Street in Weaverville, RVs, travel trailers and oversized vehicles are barred under Trinity County Code §10.48.035, an infraction punishable by fines of up to $50 (first), $100 (second within a year) and $250 (subsequent) under §10.48.060. On other county roads, CVC §22500 parking and CVC §22669 abandoned-vehicle removal apply, and vehicles left in the roadway during snow removal may be towed at the owner's expense.
