How Can I Find Parking Near Me?

Finding parking in Toronto can be incredibly frustrating, but no more so than in the downtown area. With higher volumes of people moving into downtown, parking space is at a premium. Older city homes often don’t include driveways or garages, and apartment dwellers don’t usually have underground lots. In addition, many times condo dwellers don’t opt for purchasing spots in their buildings, which can add many thousands of dollars onto the purchase price.

If you’re struggling to find a place to park your vehicle on a daily basis, you should investigate the possibility of renting a spot from a neighbour, through a space sharing website. Once you register on a site, you can browse through options in your area that may include driveway spots, or available garage spaces.

Simply apply for a space and wait to hear from the host. If the host is interested in renting to you, the site will provide a legal agreement setting out the terms of the rental, which both parties must sign. Payments are made through the company’s platform, using a secure system such as PayPal.

Investigate the possibility of space sharing today, and ease your parking woes!
