Parking, in general, is an expense that everyone would rather avoid but often we fall into situations when we must park. So why pay full price when you can park cheaper…
It’s Parking Deals Australia’s job to help you save money next time you park and over the last few years, we learnt the tricks to help you save.
The best parking tips we have to saving money next time you park in the Brisbane CBD are as follows:
Monthly parking is parking that allows you to park every single day for as long or as little as you like for just a fixed price per month. You will normally get your own access card that you just swipe into the car park for access and so there is no need to take a ticket, in some car parks if you’re a monthly parker you will even get your own exit lane so it’s express. Monthly parking prices can vary a lot based on the car parks location, parking type if you get your own bay or you just park anywhere.
Parking Deals Australia can reveal that the average monthly parking cost in Brisbane CBD is around $500 – $600 a month but prices can reach $1000/month.
To get monthly parking normally you would have to contact the car park provider you would like to park with and ask for a quote at the specific car park you would like then sign a monthly agreement. Much like how renting a house would work but easier. Parking Deals Australia makes that even easier by bringing transparently in your hunt for monthly parking as we work with over 10 parking providers across Brisbane and list parking prices online at our Monthly Parking map for you to browse and then submit your interest for space or book online.
Is Monthly Parking worth it? The answer is, it depends. If you are just parking in the city for just one or 2 days a week then we would suggest just daily or early bird parking but if you are parking over 3 days a week we suggest you consider monthly parking. The benefits of monthly parking are that it can often be cheaper or the same price as your normal parking depending on how much you park but monthly parking takes the absolute hassle out of parking.
Most people who have monthly parking work in the city as it is super convenient for the work week but then again you can also park on the weekend when you go shopping.
As we have previously mentioned, there are so many different car parks to choose from when booking parking and it can be really frustrating.
The best thing to do is to compare your options and we make that easy for you to do.
As when as that It always helps to read reviews on the car park and this usually gives away any problems with the car park based on other customers experience.
To avoid wasting money please check the height of the car park. I know it sounds simple enough but you would be surprised at the amount of customer service calls we get of people who’s cars won’t fit the car park height. Often they will have to park somewhere else and we would refund their money but sometimes getting a refund from parking companies other than us can be really challenging.
Like a lot of shops and bars in Brisbane City they close at some point during the night and this is also the same for some car parks. We suggest before booking your parking that you check the opening and closing times of the car park. If a car park closes on you, not only will your car be stuck in there and you will have to pay more money but if you want to get the car out you will have to pay a call-out fee which can be upwards of $125! To avoid this simply check the car park opening times when booking online.
If you are looking for early bird parking make sure you double-check what the early bird parking times are ie enter before 9:30 am and exit after 2 pm that same day. Often these are different between car parks and car park providers. If you don’t park during these times parking can be 3 times the price.
Parking is expensive but there are super easy ways to save on your parking, especially with coupon codes and parking deals. All the big parking companies will offer discount codes and great parking deals. Just how good these deals are depending on a few things. Usually deals are structure around low peak times for car parks when not a lot of people are parking such as evenings and weekends.

Early Bird parking is offered by most Brisbane CBD car park providers. It is the cheapest all-day parking option for spending a day in the city for work, however, it has a few key conditions. Each car park providers early bird parking entry and exit times conditions vary but normally to claim the special early bird parking rate you will have to enter the car park before 9 am and exit after 2 pm the same day. Early bird parking prices can be up to 60% and for car parks, this is an easy way for them to fill a space early in the morning.
Not many but with cheaper parking you do lose a bit of freedom. Some car parks make early bird parkers park on the bottom levels of car parks so it might be a little more time-consuming. You will also be locked into when you can enter and exit the car park in order to claim the cheap parking rates.
Overall early bird parking is a great cheap alternative to expensive parking rates if you work in the city every day and is very popular among CBD workers.
