Unincorporated Hillsborough County permits street parking on public roads unless posted, with 72-hour maximum under LDC §6.11.04. No vehicle may block mailboxes, fire hydrants, or driveways. Commercial strips may have 2-hour posted limits.

Parking on grass shoulders common but prohibited within 5 feet of pavement on certain collector roads. HOAs and CDDs frequently impose stricter rules than county code.
