Tips / Other

Parking in most metropolitan cities can be absurdly expensive. However, planning ahead can save you up to 50 percent on parking garages and lots. Thanks to some wonderful websites dedicated to finding available lots and garages, one is able to shop by price and prepay online. These rates, in most cases, are lower than the prices at the time of parking.

 

Check out some of these great sites:

 

It is also beneficial to familiarize yourself with the local street laws. Be mindful of rush hour no parking rules, as well as street cleaning days; you will get towed if parked on the streets during certain hours.

 

In many cities, on Sunday and occasional holidays, parking in the streets is complimentary. Keep in mind, those regulations change from city to city and may even change over time.

 

Bottom line, looking for parking ahead of time can definitely save you the aggravation of being unpleasantly surprised at the garage or parking lot. Be sure to check out the airport parking options on the above websites as well.
