Irvington Township RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard | No general driveway storage permission established; confirm vehicle class and lawful improved parking position. Section 620-11D prohibits listed motor-vehicle yard, lawn and vacant-lot placements. |
| Street / loading | RVs/campers/trailers prohibited all day on municipal/county roadways, with a delivery/service exception. Personal loading is not automatically a delivery/service exception. |
| Sleeping / utilities | Parking provisions do not establish sleeping or dwelling permission. No utility connection permission established. |
The all-day roadway rule
Section 620-11C names RVs, campers, trailers and other covered vehicles and prohibits parking on municipal and county roadways within Irvington at any time. Vehicles making deliveries or providing services are excepted from that subsection. Personal trip loading should not be assumed to qualify as a delivery or service. Violating vehicles may be ticketed, towed and impounded. Confirm whether the particular road is municipal, county or state-controlled.
Do not rely on the older overnight hours
Section 620-45 separately addresses overnight parking from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., including RVs, motor homes, trailers and campers. Its hours do not override the broader all-day rule. Section 620-10 expressly preserves more restrictive parking provisions. A residential parking permit, unused space or lack of a nearby sign does not establish an RV exemption.
Private storage and occupancy need separate answers
Section 620-11D lists lawns, front/rear/side yards, vacant lots and obstructive placements among prohibited motor-vehicle parking positions. Do not convert that list into permission for a driveway, garage or occupied RV. Trailers and boats have additional provisions, and the intended parcel, vehicle class and improved parking area need individual review. Neither a street delivery exception nor a residential permit authorizes sleeping, dwelling use or utility connections.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Irvington Township 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 Irvington Township parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
