Start with your destination, the organization that operates the parking and the time you need to return to your car. This guide connects six Bay Area cities with official starting points, then helps you check whether an option works for your whole trip.
Published by Curbi on . Prepared with AI assistance; official-source descriptions checked on October 19. Municipal and transit resources are separate from Curbi. Curbi is preparing its Bay Area launch; city inclusion here does not mean that private spaces are available. TEST listings cannot be used for real parking.
Write down the destination and the city before searching for parking. Then identify the particular garage, lot, station or private space you are considering. Nearby options can have different operators, entrances, opening times and parking programs.
For a municipal garage, begin with the city or transport agency’s directory and follow the selected facility’s details. For station parking, use the transit operator’s station page and parking information. For a private space, check that individual listing and its confirmed instructions.
Keep the operator’s page with your trip notes. If a detail that matters to your visit is missing or unclear, use the contact route shown by that operator before relying on the option. A rule described for one facility should not be carried across to another.
These six cities are part of Curbi’s launch-preparation geography. The links below lead to independent public agencies. They are resources for planning, not Curbi inventory, endorsements or booking integrations.
Municipal garage and lot directory
Start with SFMTA’s Garages & Lots directory. It provides a list view and filters for neighborhood, facility type and services for agency-owned facilities.
Choose the facility relevant to your destination, then check its own details and notices. A directory filter does not establish live occupancy or confirm that the facility covers your intended stay.
City parking resource
Use the City of Oakland’s Find and Pay for Parking page as an official starting point. Confirm the selected facility and operator directly before making plans around it.
Check the information for that specific option rather than applying a citywide summary to every garage, lot or street.
Municipal off-street directory
The city’s Parking Garages and Lots page separates facilities in Downtown, Southside and Elmwood, with individual facility sections.
Start with the part of Berkeley you need to reach. Then check the chosen facility’s entrance, vehicle information and departure access. A facility’s capacity figure is not a count of empty spaces.
Separate city-zone and station resources
The city’s Residential Parking Permit page provides residential-zone information and linked zone maps. It is not a visitor garage directory.
If your plan involves BART, start separately with the Daly City Station page, its parking map and the linked BART parking information. A nearby residential street and a station parking area are different options.
Downtown permit and program information
The city’s Permits and Programs page covers downtown parking permits and includes garage and surface-lot programs.
Use it to identify the program you are reading about, then confirm the current information for the facility and visit you intend. A permit-information page does not by itself confirm a visitor parking space or a reservation.
Downtown facility directory
The city’s Downtown Parking Facilities page distinguishes city-owned facilities from privately owned facilities with public parking information. It includes a map and facility list.
Check who operates the chosen option and read current facility notices before leaving. A temporary restriction on one part of a garage should not be treated as a permanent statement about the whole facility.
Turn a promising search result into a trip plan by checking these details for the actual facility or space. Keep unanswered questions visible; a map result cannot fill them in.
Include time to reach your destination and return to the vehicle. If the visit crosses midnight, check the departure date explicitly. A daily label alone does not tell you when that particular parking period ends.
Find the vehicle entrance, how to return on foot and whether you can retrieve the car at your expected departure time. A garage being open when you arrive does not answer every question about leaving later.
Look for relevant dimensions, garage clearance and access information. Consider vehicle height with any roof equipment, along with the room needed to open doors and unload. If the published information does not answer your fit question, ask the operator.
Confirm which area or product your visit uses, its time coverage and any required confirmation. Check the current total and payment instructions with the operator. Do not assume an hourly, daily, reserved or permit option has the same terms as another.
Look for facility-specific access or service notices before travel. Check an alternative’s operator, full stay and vehicle fit too; choosing a second map marker alone does not make it a workable backup.
If you intend to leave the car at a station and continue by train, check the station parking and the return journey as two parts of the same plan. Start with the station’s own page and the operator’s current travel information.
For BART, use its Parking Overview and the relevant station’s parking map and notices. That overview describes BART-operated parking and identifies exceptions; it should not be applied to every station or another transit operator.
Check which parking program covers the stay you intend and follow its current conditions. Then check the service information for reaching your destination and returning to the car. A station’s estimated parking fill time is not a real-time vacancy measurement, and a train trip plan is not a parking confirmation.
Keep municipal parking, station parking and private-space parking separate when comparing them. A product or confirmation for one does not carry over to another operator.
Curbi is preparing its Bay Area launch for private parking, with outdoor driveways at single-family homes as its primary focus. The municipal and transit facilities linked here are not Curbi listings. Planned launch geography does not establish available private supply.
For a prospective private-space booking, use the private driveway parking checklist to review vehicle fit, the marked area, your full stay and the confirmation step. A public approximate map location is not an exact arrival instruction.
Check Curbi’s current service status before relying on the app for a parking destination. TEST listings cannot be used for real parking. Availability depends on approved hosts and the particular space’s actual offering.
This guide links to official city, SFMTA and BART resources so you can read current facility and program information directly. It does not reproduce price tables, permit eligibility, enforcement rules or live availability. Check the operator for information specific to your visit.
