| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Six-hour trip route | Actual loading/unloading/cleaning only Official provisions. |

What does the six-hour rule cover?
Actual loading, unloading or cleaning before/after a trip can use the private premises for at most six hours in seven days. It does not cover County rights-of-way. Read the official source.
When do I need the 48-hour permit?
The County describes a front/side driveway permit, issued and visible from the street, limited to 48 hours in seven days. The checker restricts this FAQ route to confirmed non-PUD residential sites. Read the official source.
What are the seven-day permits?
Pre/post-trip repair/cleaning and qualifying nonresident visitor transportation have distinct seven-day permits. Each is capped at two consecutive and four permits annually. Read the official source.
Where is ordinary rear-yard storage?
The FAQ identifies rear yards, enclosed buildings and carports at residential single-family/mobile-home sites. A corner lot uses the side opposite the street with least frontage; a through lot uses the designed rear elevation. Read the official source.
Can visitors sleep in the RV?
No sleeping, living or housekeeping permission comes from the visitor permit. Approved occupancy sites require a different land-use route. Read the official source.
Why are PUD driveway answers unresolved?
The current amendment register marks a 2026 RV-in-PUD change adopted, while its downloadable text is still labelled draft and lacks a completed Board hearing date. Obtain the signed enacted ordinance and effective date; the checker applies neither competing driveway interpretation. Read the official source.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask the governing planning/code office to confirm the exact parcel, vehicle class, approved use and applicable exceptions. Official source and contact route.
Use the Unincorporated Collier County parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
