Want to Park Your Own Car in NYC?
No parking anytime

We've been getting a lot of requests lately for self-parking garages for monthly parking. Last we checked, there were about 34 garages in Manhattan that offered self-parking for either monthly or daily customers, or both. Many people like to self-park because no one else is handling their car and they hold on to the keys, but there are some other issues to consider.

The Benefits

  • You Will Save Time because you don't need to call ahead to pick up your car.
  • You Will Choose Where You Park because you're parking your own car.
  • You Won't Pay More for an SUV or Oversize Vehicle because small vehicles and large vehicles are using the same amount of space in the car stalls.

The Bad News

  • You Will Probably Pay More for a self-park garage. I know, you're thinking 'If the garage doesn't have to pay the valet, then why does it cost more?' With a valet attended garage, the attendants can squeeze in a lot of cars by parking them on 4-level high hydraulic lifts, parking them 3 deep bumper to bumper, and placing them very close together. That's because they're the only ones moving around the cars (if you've ever wondered why your windows are sometimes rolled down, it's because the valets may need to climb out the window when they park the cars close together).

    In a self-park garage, though, the space for each car is clearly marked and cannot change. That means the garage has a limited capacity and will usually charge more for each monthly parking space.

  • You May Have Car Damage with no recourse because you won't know the other drivers.
