Tips if you have a limited budget
If you have a limited budget, here are some tricks and tips.
Use parking only when you need it
- If you need parking for work, you can find spots to rent during working hours for a reduced price.
- Similarly, you can buy a monthly spot for overnight and weekends only if you need a monthly spot when you come back home.
- If you rent a parking spot for part of the time, you will need to play the NYC street parking game and we are here to help -> Check this NYC parking map to see free parking options around you
