Tips for Every Type of Parker

From road trips to events, to your daily commute – you’re going places. Whether you like to plan your parking in advance or prefer to wing it, SpotHero is here to help with these tips and tricks to make sure you have a fantastic experience!

The Particular Parker:

This parker will not rest until they find the perfect spot to fit their needs—and park perfectly in it. They want everything to be just the way they like it, the trouble is…just how do you find the perfect spot?

We get that parking is stressful: According to our latest State of Parking report, 73% of respondents find parking stressful, and 54.1% found maneuvering into a spot stressful. SpotHero can also help take the stress out of parking by helping reserve an off-street spot. Our parking passes include directions to your spot as well as redemption instructions to help take some of the stress out of your experience.

Proactive Parker:

We hope it goes without saying: proactive parkers make the most efficient checklists. This parker likes to be prepared for everything, but especially their special nights out. That’s because they’re excited! Having everything just-so means that when the big moment comes, they are enjoying themselves to the fullest. 

SpotHero can help! Drivers can use the app to reserve spots in advance, with many spots opening up weeks or even months before the big day! Having a reservation can one less thing off that to-do list and allow them to start enjoying the ride that much sooner.

The Pampered Parker & The Passenger Princess:

These two often travel as a set and they are the ultimate pair. The pampered parker looks to travel in style and comfort, and convenience is a top priority for them. They want to park close to their destination or even try to seek out a valet spot.

Always grateful for the ride, a passenger princess (or prince!) loves to take care of everyone in their circle. They handle navigation, radio and climate control so that the driver can give their full focus to the road. It’s one of many small ways to express their gratitude for the ride to their destination!

SpotHero can help this fabulous pair find the closest spot to their destination, which the passenger princess will book so that the pampered parker doesn’t have to! 

No matter what kind of parker you are, SpotHero is here to help you find your perfect spot to meet your needs. Peace, love, and parking!
