Finding places to park in an urban environment can take additional time, and it adds to your commute. Online reservation programs allow you to utilize a computer or mobile device to find parking. City Parking offers a reservation program to help you to find spaces ahead of time. Here is more information about the convenience of online parking reservations:

Confirmed Availability

Using a parking reservation service helps you save time. Instead of spending extra time driving around for a space or checking multiple garages, you can choose a specific space. Having a confirmed location allows you to plan commutes more accurately; this makes it easier to get to appointments or events on time. A confirmed space also saves you time by reducing idling in traffic. Our platform allows you to choose a place to park as little as 15 minutes ahead of time or up to months in advance. This helps you plan trips or find a space if you are running late. 

Location Choices

Reservation platforms allow you to search and choose garages or street parking near your preferred location. Some have a search bar where you can type in your destination address and find available spaces nearby. Multiple options let you compare proximity; parking near your destination means a shorter walk. 

Reservation services are also beneficial if you are new to the area or traveling. Our platform offers information about nearby parks, restaurants, and museums near your reserved space. Learning about these ahead of time allows you to plan your trip more effectively by booking restaurants or checking store hours. 

When going to an event, such as a baseball game, you can choose to park in a garage and then utilize public transportation. Being able to search and choose your parking spot lets you find places near public transit. This makes it easier to make it to the bus or subway on time for your commute, and parking in an area away from the event can make it easier to leave the garage afterward.

Feature Selection

Some platforms offer information about garage hours and other features. This allows you to find a garage with hours that match your schedule. Such information also helps prevent the possibility of your car being locked in overnight. If you work early or graveyard shifts, look for garages that offer 24/7 parking. You can also check if the garage offers valet parking and learn more about entrance procedures. Paying beforehand via an app allows you to show or scan a digital pass at the gate, saving additional time. 

These services allow you to find and reserve garages with the features that you may need. This includes accessible parking, spaces for oversized vehicles, or electric vehicle charging. Finding a space with electric vehicle charging lets you drive your vehicle without the risk of not being able to recharge. Choosing a garage with the features you need helps you avoid searching through multiple options.

Hourly and Monthly Passes

With online reservations, you can choose hourly parking or monthly passes. Hourly parking is convenient if you require a place to park for a few hours, such as for an appointment. You are able to choose your entrance and exit times when you book and pay online. If you need a regular place to park for work or other commitments, choose a monthly plan. Monthly plans let you park in your reserved spot instead of regularly finding and reserving new places to park. A monthly pass provides more flexible entrance and exit times, giving you the freedom to leave according to your preferred schedule. For added convenience, monthly plans also include automatic payment options, making it easier to manage your parking fees.
