Overview & Suitability
The parking facility at 402 Bull Street, managed by Parking Management Company (PMC), is a highly convenient open-air surface parking lot located in the heart of Downtown Savannah's historic landmark district. It is perfectly suited for standard passenger cars, including sedans, SUVs, and standard-sized pickup trucks. Because it is a surface lot with an urban footprint, larger motorhomes, RVs, or vehicles with trailers may find maneuvering difficult, making it best suited for commuter and visitor passenger vehicles looking to explore the area's rich history.
Access, Dimensions & Clearance
As an outdoor, open-air surface lot, there are no overhead height restrictions or maximum clearance limitations, making it a stress-free option for taller standard vehicles like SUVs or trucks equipped with roof racks. Access is gained directly from the street level. Drivers should note that Savannah's Historic District is famous for its narrow, oak-lined streets, historic brick lanes, and tight turning circles around local squares, so extra care should be taken when navigating the immediate vicinity with larger vehicles.
Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking
This PMC-operated facility utilizes the "PMC Pay" system for a seamless, contactless payment experience. To secure parking, visitors simply scan the QR codes posted on-site or text the specified number to pay via their mobile phones using credit cards, Apple Pay, or Google Pay—no app download required. While pricing can vary based on local events and peak periods, the typical rate structure is estimated as follows:
- Hourly Rate: $6.00
- Daily Rate: $25.00
- Monthly Parking: approximately $163.95
The lot operates on a pay-on-arrival basis, though monthly parking packages can be arranged in advance via the PMC portal.
Security & Amenities
The facility features clearly marked parking bays and highly visible PMC signage containing payment instructions. The lot is illuminated during evening hours to provide enhanced visibility for those returning to their vehicles after dark. Since this is an unattended, self-park facility, drivers are strongly encouraged to lock their doors, roll up windows, and keep all personal belongings out of sight.
Strategic Alternative
This lot serves as an exceptional alternative to competitive, hard-to-find street parking and crowded municipal garages. Strategically located at the intersection of Bull Street and Jones Street, it offers unbeatable proximity to top local attractions. Visitors can easily walk to Forsyth Park, Madison Square, Monterey Square, and a variety of highly rated local dining spots, boutique antique stores, and historic landmarks, making it an ideal home base for a day of sightseeing.
