Explore London’s best all-day car parks. From NCP to JustPark, Fraser Bond highlights top spots and pricing across Central and Greater London.

Finding secure and affordable all-day parking in London is a growing priority for commuters, professionals, business owners, and even developers offering parking as part of residential or commercial schemes. With London’s streets subject to Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs), time limits, and high penalties, off-street all-day car parks provide much-needed flexibility for those seeking longer stays in Zones 1–6.

Whether you're looking for daily parking near your workplace, planning site visits, or managing long-stay vehicle access for a residential development, this guide outlines the best all-day car park options in London — including public, private, and smart booking platforms.


What Is an All-Day Car Park?

An all-day car park allows you to leave your vehicle for a full day (typically up to 24 hours), either at a fixed day rate or through a pre-booked arrangement. These are essential for:

  • Daily commuters working in central or suburban zones

  • Business owners needing reliable access for meetings or fleet vehicles

  • Contractors or tradespeople working on multi-day projects

  • Residents without private parking or permits

  • Day rates from £10–£45, depending on location (cheaper in outer zones)

  • Locations in otherwise permit-restricted areas

Tips for Securing Affordable All-Day Parking

  • Book in advance on platforms like JustPark or NCP’s site — rates are often lower online than on the day

  • Look for early bird rates, especially in Central London car parks (arrival before 9am)

  • Use multi-day or monthly passes for regular use — these reduce per-day cost significantly

  • Consider EV charging availability — some spaces are reserved for electric vehicles only

  • Check CPZ hours if considering on-street parking as an alternative


Car Parking and Property Strategy

If you're a property developer, landlord, or investor, offering secure, all-day parking can:

  • Increase rental and resale value for residential units

  • Attract commercial tenants in mixed-use developments

  • Provide additional revenue from leased or licensed spaces

  • Comply with planning or accessibility obligations in new schemes

Fraser Bond advises clients on integrating parking into residential and commercial assets, including long-stay allocation, EV-ready bays, and smart access systems.
