Residential storage
Outside a garage, equipment belongs behind the principal or another major building, neatly placed and hidden from streets if possible, meeting building side/rear setbacks. Residence districts allow two covered trailers per dwelling, owned and registered to a principal-building occupant.

Short preparation, not habitation
Servicing, cleaning, loading or unloading may occur elsewhere on the lot for up to two days. Stored equipment cannot be occupied for living, sleeping or housekeeping or connected to utility services. Extra utility-trailer allowances do not add RV slots.

Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact address and proposal with the local planning or police office. This limited administrative screening is not a permit or complete legal approval. Effective May 18, 2026 full official zoning text reviewed. Principal-building setbacks vary by district and site, so they require affirmative local confirmation. Fifth-wheel classification and mobile-home casualty permissions are excluded.
Use the Columbia Town parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
