Parking East Melbourne

Do you often drive to the Melbourne Cricket Ground, only to be dismayed when you once again have to waste your time trying to find parking? You’re not the only one!

When it comes to parking Melbourne—as with many other Aussie cities—simply doesn’t have enough. And whether you’re on your way to Victoria Parade, St Vincent's Hospital or your office in Melbourne’s CBD, you’re often faced with a similar challenge: no parking that’s near your destination, available AND affordable.

We realised this common problem many Australians face and were inspired to create Parkhound. In the few years since its existence, we’ve solved many problems with parking East Melbourne residents and other Aussie drivers face. 

Let’s show you the details, so you can enjoy your next trip to the city more than before. 

How Does Parkhound Work?

With Parkhound you can decide to use our app, or our website. On both, you’ll find the following functions:

• Hosts can add information about available parking East Melbourne drivers can use. 
• Drivers can search for affordable parking East Melbourne hosts have advertised.
• Both parties use the platform to communicate with each other, finalise contracts and facilitate payments.

It’s the easiest way to book parking and best of all, it’s a more economical method than anything you’ve tried until now. 

Isn’t it time you use technology to your advantage and solve your traffic problems?

Joining Parkhound—What You Need to Know

Let’s give you a crash course in how Parkhound works. Then, you can join the other 100 000 Australians that have found it helpful for parking East Melbourne based, as well as in many other suburbs in the country. 

What Type of Parking can You Advertise?

Hosts, we invite you to advertise any parking East Melbourne drivers will find useful. It doesn’t have to be a building; it can simply be a space. As long as it’s big enough for a vehicle, you can list it. 

Usually, listings fall into one of the following categories:

• Building structures such as lockup garages
• Car ports or similar undercover structures that afford some protection against the elements
• Outside areas which can be in your garden or an outdoor parking space
• Indoor parking, often leased by apartment owners that don’t use their parking themselves
• Driveways that home owners don’t use

Even if you can only offer it up for certain times, such as during weekends, you can advertise. There may be a driver out there who needs exactly what you’re offering.

Remember, advertising your space on Parkhound is absolutely free, so there’s no risk involved. Get started today—you can earn as much as $400/month!

How Much Will Parking Cost?

Each parking East Melbourne hosts advertise on Parkhound is unique. The rate is calculated according to various factors:

• The exact location, because certain areas are more popular than others, justifying higher prices.
• The type of parking determines the price range.
• Security features and access types. A unit with CCTV cameras and access cards will cost a little more than when you’re using a driveway that only has a lockable gate. 
• To ensure affordable parking East Melbourne drivers who need regular or long-term parking can request discount rates from the host.

We offer hosts advice and a rate calculator to help them determine a market related price that’s fair to all parties.

When you’re looking for affordable parking East Melbourne drivers can pick a spot that offers the most value for money and suits their preferences. Because we don’t charge advertising fees, hosts can keep rates low. This is why many of our customers save as much as 50% on parking expenses, in comparison to using certain commercial vendors.
