How to rent out your driveway or garage

Published 2 min read

If your parking space sits empty while you're at work or away, you can rent it to parkers nearby. Listing on Drivay is free, and you stay in control.

List your space

Can I list my space?

You can list an off-street space you own or have the right to rent out: a driveway, garage, covered bay or parking lot. Street-side spots can't be listed. If you rent your home or live in an apartment complex, check your agreement and your housing society's rules first.

What you'll need

  • At least 3 clear photos of the space and the way in.
  • The exact location, pinned on a map. Parkers only see it after they pay.
  • A short description and arrival instructions, for example which gate to use.
  • Size limits, including a height limit for covered spaces and garages.
  • A bank account or UPI ID for payouts, and a verified mobile number.

Set your price and hours

You choose an hourly rate, and you can cap the price for a full day. You can also offer monthly plans for set daily hours or round the clock. Set opening hours for each day, block dates you need the space, and pause bookings whenever you like. Bookings you've already accepted still go ahead.

Instant booking or requests

With instant booking, parkers can book straight away. Otherwise each booking comes to you as a request to accept or decline.

Getting paid

Listing is free. Parkers pay a Drivay service fee on top of your price, so you receive the price you set. Payouts reach your bank account or UPI ID the day after each booking is completed, and at the end of the period for monthly plans.

Staying safe

Your exact address is shared only with parkers who have paid. When they arrive, check their check-in code in the app. If someone parks on the parker's behalf, ask for their 4-digit guest PIN and only let them in if it matches.
