West Orange has the most specific commercial vehicle rule of any town in our service area, and it settles a question most moves only discover late. Subsection 7-14.10 prohibits parking or storing any commercial vehicle on any residential street, highway, right-of-way, public place or private road in the township between 9:00 PM and 7:00 AM every day, unless a list of conditions is met. The ordinance defines a commercial vehicle to include any truck, pickup truck or van used to transport property, so a moving truck is squarely inside it.
The conditions are where it ends for most jobs. Where the exception applies at all, only one commercial vehicle may be parked, it must have a single chassis body with no more than four wheels, and it must be no more than twenty feet long. Equipment such as pipes, racks and ladders has to come off daily, and commercial markings must be covered or removed. A 26-foot box truck on six wheels does not meet any of that. If your move runs across two days here, the truck is parked off the street overnight, and that gets decided at the estimate rather than at 9 PM.
Separately from the commercial rule, the township prohibits parking between 2 AM and 5 AM daily on all township streets, except where otherwise posted. There are two different routes for two different situations. An occasional overnight goes to the police desk non-emergency line on 973-325-4000. An extended on-street need, the kind created by driveway or property construction, goes to the Traffic Bureau on 973-325-4044 or 4045 during business hours. A multi-day move is the second case, not the first.
The town climbs from the Oranges up onto First Watchung, and the older streets on the slope are narrow with short driveways set at an angle. Those two facts together, the grade and the overnight ban, are what shape a West Orange loadout more than the size of the house does.
Contact details and current traffic rules are on the West Orange Traffic Bureau page.
