subject: The Advantages Of Finding And Using London Garages [print this page] With the excitement of football matches, tennis matches and a number of concerts, that are played and performed within the large stadiums in and around London, it is no wonder that the carparks are all full a number of hours prior to each event. Trying to secure yourself some safe and secure parking can simply be a nightmare and will tend to spoil the atmosphere surrounding the event before it has even started. If you have not sorted out your parking beforehand you could find yourself driving around in circles for many hours trying to find a spot. If you are short on time, this could mean that you actually miss the start of your event and that would definitely not be a good feeling!
London garages have basically come to the rescue in this regard. Now by 'garages' we mean residential garages and business garages. Many businesses that exist within close proximity to a number of stadiums may actually offer to rent out their parking spots to people attending events at the stadium. This is great news for groups that travel to events by bus, or those that choose to car pool and save on fuel. These larger parking areas or garages are great for larger vehicles and it will also mean that your transportation remains safe and secure whilst you are inside the stadium enjoying your special event.
There are many privately owned homes within the residential areas surrounding the stadiums that are actually within a 5 to 15 minute walking distance. This provides the perfect solution for your vehicle with the added bonus that you know it will be safe from theft and damage inside a secure garage.
The fees will vary depending upon the individual London garages that are offering this service and for really popular events there may be some additional charges in order to secure your spot. That being said, it is definitely worthwhile to at least consider the options that are available to you. People that have taken advantage of this alternative parking in the past have found it extremely convenient and definitely time saving. A great deal of the time, this parking can be secured day, weeks and even months before an up and coming event, so if you get in early, your chances of finding the best spots are much higher.
If you conduct a simple search on the Internet, you should come up with a range of stadium parking options. Compare each one and make a note of operating hours, have a look and see if the fees are based on per hour use or event use, and perhaps even have a look at some maps to see how close the locations are to the stadium. If you want something to eat before your event have a look for London garages that are also within walking distance to restaurants and pubs. This way, you will be able to park, eat and attend your event, and return to your vehicle afterwards without having to make separate trips and frequent stops around London.
