If you own an apartment complex, you know how important it is for your tenants to be able to get into their assigned parking spot when needed. Ensuring that the parking lot in your complex is always easily navigable can be easy, if you hire a towing company like R & R Towing to monitor the lot for you. The guide below walks you through a few of the many ways a towing company can help you with any parking issues that may arise in your parking lot.
Remove Vehicles of Nonresidents from the Parking Lot
Have a sticker or placard for residents to display on or in their car so that the towing company can easily identify which vehicles belong to residents and which do not. If a car is parked in one of the spots designated for residents without a placard, the towing company will remove the car from the spot and take it to its lot for the owner to pick up at a later time. This ensures all residents are able to get into their designated parking spot at all times of day.
Remove Illegally Parked Cars in Handicapped Zones
Any vehicles that are parked in a handicap zone without a placard or the proper license plates can be towed away from the lot right away. When someone parks illegally in the handicap zone, it creates a very dangerous situation because someone who is handicapped will not be able to easily get to their car easily if they have to park far away from their apartment because the handicap spots are being used illegally.
Remove Illegally Parked Cars from Fire Zones
Having cars parked in the fire zones also creates a dangerous situation because fire trucks will not be able to get close enough to a building to quickly extinguish a fire if one breaks out. The trucks need to be as close as they can be to the building. No one is allowed to park in a fire zone except emergency services. If the tow truck driver sees someone parked in the fire zone, he or she can remove the vehicle very quickly to ensure that the emergency services always have the parking they need during an emergency.
You can create a contract with the towing company to have them patrol the lot as often as you feel is necessary. The towing company will post a sign somewhere in your lot that alerts everyone who comes into the lot that illegally parked vehicles will be towed at the owner's expense.
