Jurisdiction and research scope
Town of Avon only, not unincorporated Hendricks County or another Avon. Current town Code Enforcement page links Trailer Parking Guidelines quoting Ordinance 2010-11, Chapter 8 §75. The linked leaflet has no update date. Older December 2021 UDO text is not treated as the current consolidated private-storage code. Reviewed November 6, 2026. The source edition is not a certification of all later amendments. Confirm the exact parcel, current zoning, private restrictions and road authority before relying on a parking arrangement.

Avon RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard storage | Current private-storage UDO answer required. Current private-storage UDO answer required. |
| Street / loading | Ordinary trailer street/alley storage prohibited. Owner/occupant loading: one hour/day. Distinct daytime service and three-day moving exceptions. |
| Sleeping / hookups | The cited provision does not establish permission for this use; confirm the separate land-use or traffic rules. Parking permission does not establish utility-connection approval. |
One-hour loading is a specific exception
For an owner or occupant loading/unloading property at a residence or business, the trailer exception is at most one hour per day. It does not authorize an overnight stay, campground use or ordinary street storage.
Service and moving rules are different
Trailers used by people providing goods/services to an adjacent residence/business may park between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. The moving-in/out exception uses the same hours and is limited to three days. An RV trip is not automatically a household move or a commercial service visit.
Clearances and private storage
Keep trailers off sidewalks and driveways/entrances, at least 50 feet from intersections and railroad crossings, 30 feet from traffic-control devices, 20 feet from crosswalks and fire stations, and 15 feet from hydrants. Obey no-parking signs. For home storage or motorhome visitation, ask Avon for the current UDO text; the older posted 2021 document is not a current blanket approval.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Avon Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm the governing parcel, district, vehicle classification, exact position, duration and intended use. Ask the road authority about street restrictions and the building or health official about utilities and occupied use. Private covenants, leases and easements remain separate.
Use the Avon parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
