Poll: Are you paying too much for parking?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Cost of living has been on our minds lately, and one cost often lamented in our office is parking.

We all know that New Zealanders pay high parking fees! But research shows that the cost is driven by factors such as location, quality, and convenience.

The average daily parking fee being paid in CBDs:
$39.53 in Auckland,
$37.83 in Wellington,
and $32.60 in Christchurch.

But again, the range is wild! Aucklanders could be paying anything from $12 to $80, Wellingtonians from $15 to $50, and if you are in Christchurch, you are looking at $10 to $98.

Neighbours, we want to know: How much are you paying for daily parking fees?

Do you have any tips on how to find cheaper parks?

Shame on You!

Lisa from Otumoetai

This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
