AMPM Valet Parking FAQs
We have a variety of ways for you to pay for our services. They range from an hourly rate to a per attendant rate to a rate based on an estimated number of cars. It also depends on whether you’re using our services for a single engagement or seek a permanent valet fixture. In either event, we offer free quotes.
For private parties, we have an instant quote calculator that returns an immediate estimate. For businesses, our free quote tool asks for a few key pieces of information that our internal team reviews before reaching out within a business day.

By cleaning your car, you eliminate the risk of perceiving a lost item as stolen by the valet.
