How to find parking in Bengaluru without circling the block

Book before you set off

Searching for a spot after you arrive costs time and fuel, and often ends in a far-away or roadside spot. On Drivay you search by place and time, and only spaces that are free for your whole stay show up, with the full price for that stay.

Pick the right kind of space

• Driveway: a home's private parking, often close to offices and markets in residential areas.
• Garage or covered bay: protection from sun and rain, and usually a height limit.
• Parking lot: more room and longer opening hours.

Check four things before you pay

1. 01

   Vehicle size

   Each listing shows its size limits. Search only shows spaces your vehicle fits, but double-check the height for covered spaces and SUVs.

2. 02

   Opening hours

   Make sure the space is open for your whole stay, including when you plan to leave.

3. 03

   Cancellation policy

   Flexible, moderate or strict. If your plans might change, a flexible space gives you a full refund up to an hour before the start.

4. 04

   Reviews

   Reviews come only from parkers who completed a booking there.

Hourly, daily or monthly?

For a meeting, appointment or shopping trip, book by the hour. For a long day, hosts can cap the price per day so you don't overpay. If you drive to the same place every working day, a monthly plan for your office hours usually works out simpler than booking each day.

When you arrive

Once you pay, you get the exact address, directions and arrival instructions. Show your check-in code to the host and park in your space. If you're running late, extend the booking from the app; staying more than 15 minutes past the end without extending adds an overstay charge.
