Parking in Kingsford

Parkhound is an online platform that allows Australians to utilise the unused car space on private properties. In a suburb as busy as Kingsford, connecting Hosts with Drivers needing parking has been an ideal solution. It’s a popular parking option currently used by 200,000 Australians.

It’s as simple as logging onto our online platform, searching through the spots available close to where you need to be and making a booking for a specific day or month. Once spaces are confirmed and paid for, you’ll have peace of mind that you won’t have to waste time and fuel searching for a safe parking spot within walking distance of your destination.

You also won’t be restricted by the maximum time limits offered by traditional parking facilities. This means if your appointment or class runs longer than expected, you won’t need to pay a fine!

You can join the Parkhound platform as a Driver, someone in need of parking, or as a Host, someone who has unused space they can rent out. As a Host, you simply register on the platform and advertise your available space for free. Your space might be an unused garage, empty driveway or carport. You set your own rate and we’ll communicate with interested Drivers on your behalf. All the paperwork and payments are handled via the Parkhound platform.

If you’re a commuter or even just a daily visitor in Kingsford, simply log onto the platform and search for a spot close to your destination.
