## Parking at Sanderstead Railway Station on Station Approach

The station car park is operated by [APCOA](https://www.parksy.com/blog/apcoa-parking-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) and is reached from Station Approach, Sanderstead Road, Sanderstead, Greater London, CR2 0PL (APCOA). It has 121 spaces, while National Rail lists 123 station parking spaces and 3 accessible parking spaces (APCOA; National Rail). The difference between the operator and National Rail counts is useful when judging how much room may be available.

APCOA lists a Monday to Friday daily rate of £7.60, an evening rate of £3.90 from 5pm on Monday to Friday, and a Saturday to Sunday daily rate of £7.30 (APCOA). A weekly ticket costs £28.90 (APCOA). Southern identifies the station operator as Southern and confirms bicycle parking is available (Southern Railway).

## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Station in Sanderstead

The closest priced Parksy option is a secure 24/7 parking lot in South Croydon, a few steps away at 75 yards, costing £7.60 a day. A second secure parking lot with 24/7 access is 0.2 miles away and costs £4.60 a day. These spaces suit commuters who want a bookable alternative close to the station rather than a longer walk from a residential street.

A parking lot near TOP Medical Clinic is also 0.2 miles away, priced at £4 an hour, making it more suitable for short visits than a full working day. A secure gated garage space is 0.5 miles away at £12 a day. Further choices include a secure 24/7 parking lot 0.7 miles away at £3.70 an hour and secure allocated parking in Purley, Surrey, 0.8 miles away at £12 a day.

## Commuter Parking Choices for the Station

The station’s 121 spaces make the APCOA car park a substantial option for regular rail users, but a full station car park can still be inconvenient at busy commuting times. The closest Parksy space is priced at the same £7.60 daily rate as APCOA’s Monday to Friday station tariff, while the 0.2-mile secure lot costs £4.60 a day. The hourly options are better matched to appointments or shorter station visits.

APCOA offers a weekly ticket for £28.90, alongside its daily and evening tariffs (APCOA). The operator also provides a pre-booking service for Sanderstead Station, with the car park listed at Station Approach, Sanderstead Road (APCOA Prebook). A pre-booked or allocated space can be useful when arrival time matters more than parking immediately beside the entrance.

## Street Parking Controls Around Sanderstead Road

Sanderstead Road car park is a council facility where charges apply ([Croydon Council](https://www.parksy.com/blog/appeal-croydon-parking-fine)). Croydon Council lists separate prices for stays of 0 to 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours and 5 hours, with the displayed charges ranging from £1.16 to £6.50 across the listed tariff columns (Croydon Council). The council car park therefore offers a priced alternative to leaving a vehicle on the surrounding streets.

The station address is Station Approach, near Sanderstead Road, in Sanderstead near South Croydon. Council information identifies Sanderstead Road car park as chargeable, while station information identifies the APCOA facility separately. Drivers using either car park should select the correct entrance and tariff because the two facilities are not the same parking operation.

## Walking and Public Transport Links From the Station

Purley Oaks railway station is the nearest listed station, 0.2 miles away and a 5-minute walk. Selsdon railway station is about a 13-minute walk away. These nearby rail points give commuters alternatives when a different service pattern or parking arrangement is more convenient than using the station directly.

The station has bicycle parking, according to Southern Railway, and National Rail lists drop-off facilities alongside station parking (Southern Railway; National Rail). For drivers comparing alternatives, the secure allocated Parksy space in Purley is 0.8 miles away and costs £12 a day, while the 0.7-mile secure 24/7 parking lot costs £3.70 an hour. These options are better suited to people willing to walk farther for a different price or access arrangement.
