With a choice of free websites it's natural to ask this question. Free websites do not have the resources to invest in the latest tools and innovations, by choosing to use a paid website you will benefit from smart design, clever navigation and great search tools which enhance the user experience. You will also have the assurance that the content on the site is checked for quality purposes. Additionally, as a paid subscriber you will also have your own dedicated email inbox. This means you can chat safely and privately, only giving out personal information if, and when, you're ready. This alone is a good answer to the question. Finally, we also have a customer care team on hand to answer any queries you may have about how to use the features of the site, uploading photos or about your subscription. Whatever your question, we're here to offer some friendly support.

It is commission FREE for both drivers and parking providers with ZERO markups, meaning we do not increase the parking price or add a margin to earn extra profits. We do not charge any online booking or service fees and pride ourselves on 100% transparency so there are not any hidden costs, fees, or charges. Membership Contribution is the only small cost which you can purchase when you're ready and is much less expensive than paying inflated parking prices at other websites or drive up locations and no parking fines, saving you money.

When parking your car, you leave it at your own risk, the same as when you use a commercial parking operator. For any other queries, please contact your insurance provider.

The cost of using a parking space is entirely up to the parking space owner. Generally, the price of a parking space in the same area may differ due to different features such as proximity to popular place as well as security and lighting.

We are an introduction website only, so we do not do screenings. Members should conduct thorough phone screenings, interviews, and reference checking before scheduling a booking. Parking Made Easy also provides you with resources to assist you including parking space price guides and sample parking contracts.

It depends on your specific need - some parking spaces are easier to find than others. So to make the most of the site, we recommend that you send 8-10 messages and allow a 7-day turnaround, although it is likely you will gain a good number of replies within days. Many listings also contain mobile phone numbers which will allow for immediate contact. If your first round of emails don't introduce you to the right person, simply send out a second round the following week - there will be more people to choose from and you are likely to succeed within that week. You may also need to consider varying your expectations (perhaps offering an increased rental amount or longer rental terms if the parking space is in a high demand area).

Due to the increasing popularity of the website, sometimes system messages are getting stuck in spam/trash folders. It's always good to make a quick phone call if there is a phone number available. Otherwise, please let us know and we can provide you with the direct email of parking providers for you to contact. You can also post a wanted listing by logging in and going to parkingmadeeasy.com.au/rent-your-space-free and choosing offer type wanted.

Any discrepancies or concerns regarding listings are followed up by Parking Made Easy. Any negative feedback is checked and acted upon immediately. Feedback is sought from a random sample of site members regularly, to ensure that quality standards are maintained. Listings which are inactive for an extended period of time are removed from the site, so we ensure the list of parking spaces is as current and accurate as possible. We also ask for members' help in monitoring quality by contacting us to provide feedback.

Parking in driveways is much cheaper than expensive commercial parking stations and if it saves you from only one council parking fine, the membership will have more than paid for itself.

It really depends on a number of factors but some parking spaces are shared for up to $20 per day for a sporting event or festival. Other parking spaces are shared for up to $100 per week. That's equivalent to more than $5000 per year!
