The Ultimate Guide to Spokane RV Storage Parking Rules

(City vs. County vs. HOA)



Owning an RV in the Inland Northwest is all about freedom. It’s about heading out from Spokane to explore the rugged beauty of Mount Spokane, visiting family, or simply enjoying the open road. But what happens when the journey ends and you’re back home? For many RV owners, that’s when the real headache begins: finding a legal, safe, and convenient place to park your investment.

The rules for RV parking in our area are a confusing patchwork, varying dramatically depending on whether you're in the Spokane city limits, unincorporated Spokane County, or a neighborhood governed by an HOA.

This guide will break down the challenges and point you to the ultimate, stress-free solution for your RV storage needs.

The Seasonal Storage Challenge: Spokane's Four-Distinct Seasons

Before we even get to the legal rules, let’s talk about the practical ones. Spokane’s climate is a major factor in RV ownership. We have a semi-arid climate with four distinct seasons, characterized by hot, dry summers and cold, snowy winters.

Those hot summers are perfect for travel, but the cold, snowy winters are your RV's worst enemy. Ice, heavy snow load, and freezing-thaw cycles can wreak havoc on your roof, seals, and tires. Leaving your valuable RV exposed to the elements all winter is a gamble. This makes finding a secure seasonal storage solution not just a matter of convenience, but of protecting your investment.

Navigating the Maze: City vs. County vs. HOA

City of Spokane RV Parking Rules

If you live within the city limits of Spokane, you face the strictest set of rules. The city's municipal code is clear: RVs, boats, and trailers cannot be parked on a public street for more than 24 hours. In many residential zones, parking an RV in your driveway is only allowed for short periods (like 72 hours) for loading and unloading.

Storing it long-term on your property? That’s also heavily restricted. It often must be on a paved surface, behind a fence, and can't be used for "living purposes." Violations can lead to warnings, fines, and frustrated neighbors.

Spokane County RV Parking Rules

Head into unincorporated Spokane County, and the rules generally become more relaxed—but not necessarily clearer. While the county is often more lenient about parking an RV on your own property, you still have to contend with regulations.

These can include setback rules (how far from the property line it must be), restrictions on "blight," and prohibitions against living in the RV. Just because you're in the 99224 zip code, for example, doesn't mean you're free and clear. County rules can and do change, and what was acceptable last year might get you a citation this year.

The HOA Wildcard

This is the biggest hurdle for many RV owners. Homeowners Associations (HOAs) in Spokane and Spokane County have their own Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs), and most are not fans of large vehicles.

Many HOAs ban RVs, boats, and work trailers from being parked anywhere on the property—driveway or side yard included—unless they are completely enclosed in a garage (which most RVs are too large for). This leaves homeowners with no option, forcing them to find an off-site solution or risk hefty fines from their own association.
