HOA saying I can't have my work truck in driveway

I just moved into a townhouse and the HOA sent me a letter saying I can't park my work truck in the driveway. It's too big for me to fit in the garage and I don't have an option to leave it somewhere else. What can I do?

Levi, typically homeowners associations do not allow commercial vehicles on the premises, this is reflected almost always in your Bylaws. Your only option in this case is parking the vehicle off-site. Keith Jean-Pierre Managing Principal The Dapper Agents Operations In: NY, NJ, FL & CA

Start by reading your HOA's CC&Rs carefully. The rule may be specific to commercial vehicles, size, or visible signage, and knowing exactly what it says tells you whether there's any wiggle room. If the rule is clear, request a written variance or hardship exemption and attend a board meeting if you can. HOAs grant exceptions more often than people expect when the homeowner approaches it respectfully.

Levi, I would double check your HOA paperwork. All of the townhome associations I have been involved in reflect commercial vehicles are not allowed to park on the premises. I would check for parking outside the community, or a nearby storage option if there is no accessible parking near the community.
