How we approach enforcement
Enforcement built to protect your reputation
Parking enforcement earns trust slowly and loses it quickly. We've built ReadyPark around proportionate charges, evidenced appeals, and clear communication, so enforcement on your site never becomes a source of complaints.
Why this matters to landowners as much as drivers
If your car park is enforced unfairly, the reputational hit lands on you. Angry reviews, complaints from residents' families, staff grievances, and local press stories about an "unfair parking fine" all land on the landowner. For care homes, schools, and any site where trust is part of the offering, that's worth factoring into how you approach enforcement.
The principles we enforce to
Proportionate charges
Parking Charge amounts are set to reflect genuine misuse. We work with you to set terms that fit your specific site, rather than applying an industry default.
Fair, evidenced appeals
Every appeal is reviewed by a person against the actual timestamped, photographic evidence. Reasonable appeals are upheld promptly.
Generous grace periods
Drivers get a reasonable window to enter and leave without being charged, and genuine short overstays are treated with common sense rather than triggering an automatic charge to the second.
Whitelisting that actually works
Staff, residents, families, contractors, and regular visitors go on a whitelist and are simply never troubled. The system focuses on catching misuse, leaving people you've already said are welcome alone.
What "compliant" actually means, in practice
Here's what these commitments look like day to day.
Appeals
Reviewed by a person against real evidence.
Whitelisting
Built in and easy to manage, so there's no charge risk for people you've said are welcome.
Data handling
Charge levels
Proportionate, and agreed with you per site.
