Can an RV stay in the front yard?

Under §250-43K(5), individual storage areas may be in side and rear yards in residential zones. A front-yard storage area is permitted in the R-5 zone only where a building obstructs access to the side or rear yard. Convenience, a fence or a large RV is not the stated exception.

What are the count and size limits?

Storage is limited per household to one RV, motor home, travel trailer or camper, one small boat, and one commercial vehicle with no more than two axles and 5,000 pounds gross vehicle weight. The items may not exceed 28 feet long, ten feet in roofline height, or nine feet wide. The commercial-vehicle weight limit is not an RV weight limit.

Can people stay in the stored RV?

No. The vehicles may not be occupied or provided with site utilities. This is storage permission, not temporary guest lodging. Section 250-43L also limits all off-street parking to designated off-street parking spaces.

Does this permit loading on the street?

No street or loading exception follows from this storage provision. Ask Township Police about the particular road and proposed activity. Common neighborhood storage facilities are separately described as a principal use; that is not permission to turn a residential driveway into a commercial storage business.

What needs separate confirmation?

Confirm the municipal boundary, later ordinances, your exact zoning district and approved parking area. Easements, private covenants, leases, flood restrictions and construction/utility approvals may impose additional limits. An unresolved question is not permission to park or occupy a vehicle.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Old Bridge Township zoning staff about the parcel, legal yard boundaries, vehicle classification, storage and proposed occupancy. Ask municipal Police about street restrictions. Confirm current ordinances and approvals before relying on a parking arrangement.

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