Parking Signage & Permit System

Enforcement stands or falls on what's posted. Compliant signage at the right places, plus a permit system residents can actually use, is what makes every tow after it defensible.

Why signage comes first

A tow from private property is only as solid as the notice that preceded it. Signs have to be at the entrances, legible, and specific about who may park, when, and what happens if they don't. Get that wrong and every removal is arguable. Get it right and the arguments mostly stop.

  • Entrance signage at every vehicular entry point to the property.
  • Zone signage where rules differ — permit-only areas, guest parking, fire lanes, loading zones.
  • Legible from a vehicle, at the height and placement the ordinance expects.
  • The towing company's name and phone number posted, so a driver knows who to call.
  • Replacement plan for signs that get damaged, faded, or stolen.

The permit system

  • Resident permits tied to a specific vehicle and space, so enforcement can tell a resident from a visitor at a glance.
  • Guest and temporary permits with an expiration, for visitors and contractors.
  • A reissue process for new residents, new vehicles, and replacement plates.
  • Templates management can issue directly rather than routing every request through us.

Resident education

The permit system only reduces tows if residents understand it. We supply the letters and materials that explain where to park, how to get a permit, and how guests are handled — the communication that prevents the tow is worth more to a property than the tow itself.

Frequently asked questions

Do you install the signs?
We provide the signage plan and placement guidance, and coordinate installation. Call and we'll walk through what your specific lot needs.
What happens if a sign gets knocked down?
Tell us and get it replaced quickly. Enforcement in a zone with missing signage is exactly the scenario that produces a successful appeal.
Can residents manage their own permits?
Management issues them using the templates we provide. That keeps control with the property rather than routing every new resident through a third party.
