Jacksonville overnight parking is allowed, but the City imposes a 24-hour on-street limit - vehicles left longer can be cited and, after posted notice, impounded under the unattended-conveyance rule (Sec. 804.633). There is no winter parking ban. Typical fines range from $15-$250; see the Office of Public Parking parking citations page. Large trucks and some RVs face additional residential restrictions (Sec. 804.632). Towing and wheel-lock enforcement are used for repeat or serious violations. For problems or meter issues, submit a request through the MyJax 630-CITY portal. Tip: move your car within 24 hours - leaving it longer risks a $25 citation and possible tow after notice.
