Anoka homes, and what that means on the day.
Older houses near downtown and the Rum River, 1950s and 60s ramblers across the middle of town, and newer subdivisions and townhomes toward the north and west edges.
Downtown Anoka has narrow streets, angled parking and a series of street closures for events in the fall, so a move near Main Street needs a truck spot planned the day before. The old houses near the river bring narrow stairways and doors that a modern sofa does not always fit through.
Getting the truck to the door in Anoka.
Anoka bans parking on any city street from 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. all year, and the police department says to call Anoka County Dispatch at 763-427-1212 and request a "no tag" if a vehicle needs to be temporarily parked in the street. After a continuous snowfall of 2 inches or more, vehicles parked on the street are subject to tagging and towing until the street has been plowed to its full width. The city requires an Obstruction Permit from its Engineering division for anything that blocks street parking, curb and gutter, sidewalks, boulevard areas or traffic lanes. Downtown, Main Street between First and Third Avenues is two hour customer parking, with time limits enforced Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Based on the city's own rules as of September 2026. City rules change, so check with the city before move day.
