What to Expect: A Variety of Parking Solutions 

Hosts, you can add almost any type of parking to our listings. As long as it’s clean, safe and large enough, there may be a renter who needs it.

Because we welcome all kinds of parking options, renters can find affordable parking Carlton based that suit their preferences in terms of price, location and layout. 

Driveways

Some hosts have driveways that lay empty for most of the year. This can be turned into a source of income by renting it out to others. If there’s a gate that provides entry to the area the host provides the key, remote or access card to the renter. Most listings on Parkhound is available 24/7 but hosts do have the right to set guidelines such as available times. As a host, if you can only offer access during certain times of the day, mention it in your description so renters know whether it will work for them. 

Car Ports

An outdoor parking space with some shade is ideal for renters who want their cars protected from the sun. Renters want the cheap parking Carlton hosts can provide, as some provide lighting or CCTV camera surveillance as an added security measure at an affordable price. You can also charge a little more if there are more security features and still be within budget. 

Parking Bays

A host may have an allocated parking space in an apartment building’s parking garage that he or she isn’t using. As long as other tenants don’t mind and it’s within the host’s right to rent out that spot, a driver can use it on a short term or long-term basis. This is an ideal solution in busy commercial or residential areas. If your office or home is near one of these apartments with parking bays, you can obtain the rights to use the space. No more driving around looking for a spot each day. Simply use your key, remote or access card that the host provides you with, and park in ‘your spot’. 

Garages

If you want your vehicle protected against the elements, a garage is one of your best options for affordable parking Carlton based. On the Parkhound platform, you’ll see dimensions of the garage, including length, width and height, so you can gauge whether or not your car will fit inside. 

Open Spaces

You don’t always need an enclosed space for your car. If an allocated spot in someone’s garden will suit your purposes, try it out. Simpler parking Carlton locals have available will come at lower rates, saving you a lot of money while still keeping your car safe, saving you the frustration of looking for an available spot. That’s an excellent option for University of Melbourne students looking for parking Melbourne locals are willing to provide. We do ask hosts to present a clean, safe and large enough area, so that these open spaces still give you value for money.

Not sure if this will work for you? Simply view the images and description of the space on the Parkhound platform to make an informed decision. If you need parking Melbourne based, it can be challenging. Unless you use Parkhound. With a long list of options, your solution is waiting to be discovered!
