How long can I park my trailer in the driveway?: For purposes of loading and unloading, any trailer/recreational vehicle may be parked in front of the residence/structure for a period not to exceed 24 hours.

An additional day or two extension, if necessary (because of maintenance, cleaning, etc.), is allowed by calling (630) 262-0284 and leaving a message indicating your address, phone number and date of relocation/removal.
