Valet parking is a parking service where a valet helps the guest park their cars. It is a great way to spare the guests from the hassle of looking for a suitable parking location. Hiring the services of a wrong valet company may lead to unprofessional services that may ruin an event. Here are some tips to help find the right valet parking:

1. Request a Site Visit

Before hiring a valet parking service, make sure that they visit the location of the event. This visit will help them assess the site, offer insight into parking plans, and control traffic flow. The visit is also essential to ascertain how reputable and professional the company is and help create a better relationship with the valet vendor. Most companies offer this visitation for free.

2. Check Insurance Coverage

It is essential to go for valet operators with proper insurance coverages because of accident risks associated with the car parking services. If an accident or injury occurs, the insurance will cover the liabilities and damages.

3. Get a Written Estimate

After selecting a reputable valet vendor, ensure that they provide a written estimate that clearly shows total cost, the number of valet staff, their staff arrival time, and departure time. Some companies charge a minimum flat rate for events with a short duration, while some charge a fixed rate per hour.
