Greenville County has no county-wide on-street parking code for residential streets; SC state traffic law (Title 56) governs stopping, standing, and parking, and incorporated cities set their own street-parking rules.
In the unincorporated county there is no separate county ordinance regulating everyday parking along residential streets. On-street parking, stopping, and standing on public roads are governed by South Carolina's Uniform Act Regulating Traffic on Highways, Title 56, Chapter 5, enforced by the Greenville County Sheriff's Office and SCDOT for state-maintained roads. Vehicles left on a public right-of-way for more than 48 hours are treated as abandoned under county code (Sec. 9-142). Inside Greenville, Greer, Mauldin, Simpsonville, Travelers Rest, and Fountain Inn, each city adopts its own street-parking, permit-zone, and time-limit ordinances.
Illegal stopping/standing is a state traffic violation; vehicles blocking the right-of-way may be ticketed or towed by the Sheriff's Office (864.467.5280).
