Location and use matter. Confirm the property's jurisdiction and every applicable condition.
Location or useWhat to check
Driveway / yardPrivate driveway storage remains a separate zoning question. The street and camping provisions do not establish private-yard RV placement permission.
Street / loadingOrdinary RV parking is prohibited day and night in SF-1, SF-2, SF-3 and SFA public ways; specified deliveries/services are excepted. Delivery/service exception concerns commodities or necessary services for a resident on that public way, not generic RV trip preparation.
Sleeping / utilitiesCamping or sleeping on sidewalks, streets or public rights-of-way is prohibited at any time. Private-site applicability needs a city determination. No utility permission is established by a parking or camping exception.

Single-family public ways

Section 18.03.009 applies to RVs on streets, highways and other public ways in SF-1, SF-2, SF-3 and SFA areas during both day and night. Its exception covers delivering goods, materials or other commodities, or performing necessary services, for a person residing on property on that public way. Loading personal vacation supplies is not automatically that exception.

Sleeping is a separate prohibition

Section 10.06.002(b) prohibits camping or sleeping on sidewalks, streets and public rights-of-way at any time and in public parks between sunset and sunrise. The current camping article was replaced in October 2025, so earlier summaries can differ. Lawfully parked RVs at truck stops with fuel and accessory services have a specific definition exclusion, not permission for an arbitrary commercial parking lot.

Private sites and unresolved approvals

The camping article also addresses owner consent, certificates of occupancy and zoning for human habitation. Its definition excludes certain short stays in tents or temporary structures on private property, but this guide does not assume that exclusion covers every RV. Private RV storage and guest accommodation need an address-specific zoning determination. Public parking facilities have separate rules, including a 2026 amendment, and are not covered by the modeled street route.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Greenville Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm jurisdiction, the actual parcel or road, vehicle classification, position, duration and intended use. Obtain the required road, building, electrical, plumbing or wastewater approvals before relying on a parking exception. Easements, HOA rules and leases remain separate. Start with the official rule or permit guidance.

Use the Greenville parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
