What Gilbert requires for RV parking
Gilbert focuses less on the surface and more on placement and screening. RVs stay out of the front and street-side setbacks and are screened from the street and the neighbors by a solid fence or landscaping, and heavier vehicles go behind the rear wall plane of the house, 10 feet off the property lines.
In practice that puts most Gilbert RV pads in the side yard behind a solid RV gate, or in the rear yard on larger lots. Most Gilbert neighborhoods also have an HOA with its own rules, which are often the tighter of the two.
| Rule | What it says | What it means for the pad |
|---|---|---|
| RV storage location | Unoccupied RVs owned by the occupant may be stored on a developed residential lot outside the required front or street-side setback | The pad goes beside or behind the house, not in the front setback |
| Screening | Stored RVs screened from streets and abutting property by a solid fence or landscaping | Plan the pad behind a solid gate or wall |
| Heavier vehicles | Parked behind the rear wall plane of the house and at least 10 ft from any property line | Heavy rigs need a rear-yard pad set back from the lot lines |
| Street parking | RVs in the right of way only for loading and unloading, up to 48 hours | The street is not storage |

Planning a pad in Gilbert
Because placement is the rule that bites, the first step in Gilbert is finding where the pad is allowed to go, then checking the gate opening and the side yard width. Only then is the pad sized to the rig.
A concrete pad also solves the practical problems: it stays level, it does not rut, and it keeps dust and gravel out of the coach. For heavy coaches that must sit behind the rear wall plane, the pad can be long, so price it by the square foot before you commit.
