Nelson campus parking is available for students and visitors, with tickets sold at the ticket machine or through PayStay for BHI (studentweb.bhtafe.edu.au).

A separate Box Hill Institute parking notice states that daily tickets cost $3.50 per day through PayStay or onsite ticket machines (studentweb.bhtafe.edu.au).
