RV parking rules in Little Egg Harbor Township

Little Egg Harbor Township RV parking at a glance

Single-family storage has specific limits

Section 215-7.7 allows outdoor unoccupied RV, motorhome, travel-trailer, camper or boat storage on single-family property at least three feet from side/rear lot lines and ten feet from any street line. Its following clauses specifically limit travel trailers, campers and boats to 35 feet long, eight feet wide, one in a required yard, and no more than 12 consecutive months in storage. Because the opening list is broader than those later clauses, confirm how the Township applies the dimensional, number and duration language to a self-propelled motorhome. Do not assume it is exempt or silently apply a different vehicle’s limit.

The owner’s land and no occupation matter

Section 236-2 distinguishes a genuine touring/camping RV from a mobile home and allows storage on the vehicle owner’s land solely for storage, without dwelling, occupation or any other use. Section 215-7.7 also prohibits occupation and non-recreational material storage. A borrowed driveway or a screened space does not automatically meet both chapters. The ordinary rule is not a guest-sleeping exception, even if the RV remains registered and mobile.

Maintenance, emergencies and streets are separate

The zoning clause excepts utility connections required for vehicle maintenance, but the mobile-home chapter’s storage-only restriction still requires Township interpretation for any proposed servicing or other use. This checker does not turn that maintenance exception into blanket hookup approval. Temporary replacement of a damaged dwelling and construction offices require a building-inspector temporary permit. Seasonal-business security use has its own March–December and removal rules. None of those special routes is assumed. These storage provisions establish neither street parking permission nor a general loading grace period.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Little Egg Harbor 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.
