Instruction manual

1

After registering your own company, find the right parking area. The main selection criterion is its location. The area for parking should be located either in the business center of the city, or in sleeping areas with a large number of apartment buildings. Prepare the necessary project documentation for parking equipment and coordination with the city administration, traffic police, fire department.

Take care of the parking equipment. Put up a fence, a room for protection, ensure even coverage of the territory. Proper organization of the parking area can increase the number of cars placed up to 25%. Optimize your markup by first calculating the maximum parking load. Consider organizing the movement inside the parking lot so that drivers of any level can drive between rows without hindrance. Keep in mind that outdoor parking will be part of the year under the snow. For marking in the winter, purchase chippers and portable boundary posts.

Hire licensed guards. It’s better to choose such workers who will be universal and able to do all the work: help in parking, monitor the correct location of cars, collect payment. Depending on the size and functionality of your car park, enter a 24-hour shift schedule. Separately, you should hire a territory cleaner who will tidy the parking lot several times a week.

note

Be extremely careful about car safety. Ensure that customers do not damage other machines. In no case should parking guards leave the territory.

Useful advice

If you open parking in a cold region, in winter enter the car warm-up service. This can be done by security guards for a fee.
