Q:

I’ve found a parking space that I want to rent or buy. What happens next

A:

You can call us on 0207 631 1117 or click on ‘Contact London Garages’ in the bottom right hand corner of the parking space you’re interested in. An e-mail window will appear addressed to us; it also identifies the reference number of the parking space. Type in your message, with your phone number, and send the e-mail. We will get back to you directly by phone or e-mail whichever you prefer.

Q:

Do I sign a contract?

A:

Yes. There is a simple short-term rental agreement which we will jointly complete quickly and with a minimum of fuss and bother. As soon as you have signed the agreement and paid a deposit, you can start using the parking space.

Q:

How long can I rent the space for?

A:

This depends on the availability of the parking space and how long you want to rent it. Normally, the period will be for three months, six months, nine months or one year. We will agree the period when we complete the agreement.

Q:

What happens if I want to end the agreement before the end of the agreement period?

A:

All you need to do is to give us two months’ notice and the agreement will be terminated.

Q:

How do I pay for the parking space?

A:

Our preference is direct debit but you can also pay by cheque or even cash. Whatever suits you best.

Q:

Does it make any difference if the parking space is outside or inside the Congestion Zone?

A:

If the space is outside the Congestion Zone you do not have to pay the daily Congestion Charge of £5.00. You can park your car then travel to your destination by whichever alternative means you choose. We have a wide selection of parking spaces that enable you to beat the charge: contact us to find the location that is most convenient for you.

We also have parking spaces inside the Congestion Zone that are located in the most popular areas for working and living in central London. If you live inside the Congestion Zone or you have to drive into the Zone, contact us to find the parking spaces that best suit your work and lifestyle.

Q:

I have a parking space that I want to rent out or sell. Tell me what I do next.

A:

Please click on ‘I have a space’ and complete the form. Contact us by e-mail or by phone and we will arrange to rent or buy your parking space at a price that suits you. The price we will offer you depends on your location and the type of space you have available. Normally, the locations closest to the Congestion Zone will command the highest price but we are very interested in all the locations in London. 

Contact us to find out just how much that unused space could be worth. You could be very pleasantly surprised.

Q:

When I accept your offer, what happens next?

A:

We sign an agreement for the period that suits you best: it may be three months, six months, nine months or one year. As soon as the agreement is signed, we start paying you at the agreed monthly rate. You will be paid 1 month in advance once the space is taken.

Q:

What makes London Garages special?

A:

Unlike our competitors such as 247 Parking and aparkingspace.com, we are not agents so there’s no time-consuming writing of adverts. It’s the same with Loot Garaging or Loot Parking, you don’t have to advertise to find or rent out a parking space or garage. You rent from, or buy from, London Garages and you rent to, or sell to, London Garages. That’s what makes us so easy to deal with.

Q:

How do you pay me?

A:

We will pay you whichever way suits you best.

Q:

If I have several car parking spaces that I want to rent out, how can you help me?

A:

We can manage them for you or rent them from you or buy them.

Q:

If I am looking for a car parking space but there is nothing that meets my requirements in your available spaces, how can you help me?

A:

Click on ‘I want a space’ on the menu and complete the form. E-mail it back to us using the e-mail facility provided and we will contact you as soon as we have a parking space that is right for you.

Q:

I only need a parking space for two days a week.

A:

Contact us ­ we may be able to help you.

Q:

I have a space that I only use three days per week.

A:

Contact us ­ we may be able to help you

Q:

What if my car is damaged while in the parking space / garage I am renting from you?

A:

You rent the space at your own risk. London Garages is not liable for anything that happens to your car while your car is parked in the rented space or garage.

Q:

I have a space or garage that I do not use and will never use. Can I sell it to you?

A:

Yes. We will agree a price with you and we will become the owners of that parking space. After that you may not use it for any purpose.
