Rent out your parking space today

No planning permission needed for most people who rent out their driveway. You own it, so you can let others park there. Living in a block of flats or council property? Better check first! Your freeholder might have rules about using your private parking spot for rentals.

No, but maybe tell your home insurer anyway. Most don't care at all when you rent driveway space. The Renter is responsible for their own car - you're just providing concrete to sit on. Some insurers might want to know, others won't bat an eye.

Your parking space to rent, your choice. Fine with vans? Great. Only want small cars? That works too. Just say so in your listing. Some people who rent out their drive actually prefer vans because the drivers are usually super careful.

Lucky you! EV chargers make your driveway worth WAY more, enabling you to charge a premium. EV owners struggle to find good charging spots and will pay extra for your private driveway with power. Some make enough from this to cover their entire electric bill.

Heck yes! Live near a stadium? You're sitting on gold. Match days are perfect for short-term driveway rental. Some people only rent out their drive for big events. Stadium parking costs a fortune, so you can charge good money and still be cheaper than the official lots.

Check what others nearby charge and make sure you're offering a competitive price. If you’re near stations or hospitals, you can generally charge slightly more. We also have an earnings calculator to tell you how much you can make based on the spaces around you.

If it's big enough, why not? Loads of people rent out half their drive. Just be crystal clear about which part you're offering. Take photos showing exactly where they should park. Avoids awkward conversations later when a Renter blocks you in by mistake!

Good photos and good prices! Show the whole space in daylight. Mention if it's easy to get in and out. Got security lights? Say so. Wide enough for a big car? Mention it. The more detail about your private driveway, the better. Oh, and answer messages fast - people trying to rent a driveway usually need it soon.

Yes! We show your listing to people searching in your area. The better your listing, the more bookings you'll get. A good, clear listing of your parking space will get plenty of interest naturally.

Not at all. It's your drive - rent it when you want. Only want to rent out your driveway while you're at work? Fine. Just weekends? That’s fine too. Just summer? Whatever works! The flexibility is what makes it such a good side hustle. Block out dates you need it yourself.

It’s so easy. Stashbee handles everything when you rent out your drive. We handle contracts, collect payments, and send the money right into your bank account every month. No risky cash handovers or chasing money.

Depends! City centre private driveway? Could be £200+ monthly. Suburban spot? Maybe £50-100. Near a station? More. Middle of nowhere? Less. Location matters most. Some people rent out their driveway and make enough to cover their car payments. Others make decent pocket money. Either way, it's cash for space you're not using!

Stashbee requires all users to sign our standard booking terms before renting a parking space. Many driveway owners never even meet their parkers. It's all handled through the platform. Less risky than most side hustles!

Absolutely! Mix it up. Rent your drive monthly for stability, or daily for higher rates. Some do weekday monthly rentals to commuters, then weekend one-offs at higher rates. Flexible options result in more potential Renters. Play around and see what works for your space.

Not if you don’t want to be. Most people who rent out their driveway never meet the Renters. Using the messaging feature on Stashbee, you can give them clear instructions about where to park. Many driveway rentals run for months without the owner and Renter ever crossing paths! Perfect passive income.

Absolutely. You leave for work, someone parks in your empty drive, they leave before you get home. Your drive doesn't sit empty all day, and you make money. Commuters often want exactly this arrangement when they rent a driveway. Win-win situation!
