Why Rent a Driveway or Yard?
Sometimes all you need is a simple, affordable parking spot close to home or work. We connect drivers with local homeowners who have a spare driveway, front yard or covered carport they’re not using.
It’s cheaper than a commercial car park, safer than the street, and you’re helping a neighbour earn a few bucks from space that’d otherwise sit empty.
Simple, Honest Parking
Driveway and yard parking is the most affordable way to park securely. No multi-storeys, no meters, no stress.
Unbeatable Value
Private driveways and yards cost a fraction of commercial rates. Save money every month without sacrificing convenience.
Residential Locations
Park in quiet suburban streets close to home, work, train stations or hospitals. Real spots in real neighbourhoods.
Verified Homeowners
Every host is ID verified. You know exactly whose driveway you’re parking in.
Covered Carports
Some hosts offer covered carport parking that protects your vehicle from sun, rain and hail.
Walk to the Station
Find spots near train and bus stops for a hassle-free commute. Park, walk, ride.
No Long-Term Lock-in
Month-to-month or even daily. Cancel anytime. No penalties, no stress.
What Type of Spot Do You Need?
Homeowners across Australia are renting out all kinds of residential parking spaces.
Driveway
A concrete or paved driveway spot. Typically off-street and more secure than parking on the road.
Front / Back Yard
Grassed or paved yard space for one or more vehicles. Often spacious enough for larger vehicles like utes and vans.
Covered Carport
An undercover parking spot attached to a house. Protects from weather and usually includes lighting.
Park Like a Local
Your neighbours have space. You need a spot. {brand} makes the introduction.
Tips for Renting a Driveway or Yard
Check the surface
Concrete and paved driveways are best for daily use. Grassed yards work for lighter vehicles but can get muddy after rain.
Respect the property
You’re parking at someone’s home. Keep it tidy, don’t block other vehicles, and follow any house rules the host sets.
Confirm access times
Some homeowners are flexible, others have preferences. Make sure you agree on access hours before booking.
Compare with street parking
Factor in the cost of parking fines, dings from other cars and the walk to your front door. A dedicated spot often pays for itself in peace of mind.
Driveway & Yard Parking FAQs
How much does driveway parking cost?
Rates vary by location but residential parking is typically 30–50% cheaper than commercial options. Inner-city driveways might be $50–$150 per month. Suburban spots can be even less. Prices vary.
Is it safe to park in someone’s driveway?
Every host is ID verified through Stripe. You’ll know who your host is and can message them directly. Most driveway hosts are neighbours who want to help and earn a bit of extra income.
Can I park a larger vehicle like a van?
That depends on the spot. Check the listing dimensions and photos. Many yards and wider driveways can accommodate vans and utes.
What if the host sells or moves?
If a host needs to end the arrangement, they’ll give you notice through the platform. You can search for a new spot anytime. No penalty for switching.
Is there a minimum booking period?
That’s up to the host. Some offer daily parking, while others prefer weekly or monthly. The listing will show what’s available.
