Parking, postings & building rules
Tow-away postings/permits: Whether temporary signage is useful depends on your exact block (meters/load zones/bike lanes), time of day, and building rules.
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 building management.
- Lead time: Aim for at least 1 week for any postings or elevator/dock reservations.
- Timing tip: Weekday mornings are usually smoother; expect traffic near Downtown Fourth Street, Marin Civic Center, and US-101/I-580 ramps.
