Parking, postings & building rules
Tow-away postings/permits: Whether temporary signage is useful depends on your exact block, meters, and time of day. We’ll advise the best approach for your address (legal load zones, driveway/garage with permission, or when a tow-away posting is worth it) and share step-by-step instructions if a posting/permit is appropriate—requests are placed by you. We issue COIs promptly and can send them to you or your building/HOA.
- Lead time: Aim for at least 1 week for any postings or elevator reservations.
- Timing tip: Weekday mornings are usually smoother than weekend/event hours near Castro Theatre and Market/Church.
