Park Assured is the IPC’s national accreditation scheme designed to raise standards across private parking in the UK.

What is Park Assured?

Park Assured provides assurance that parking locations are managed in line with sector best practice standards. At its core is a simple principle: motorists should have access to clear, accurate information so they can understand the terms and conditions that apply at any location. 


With more than 10,000 locations already aligned. This makes Park Assured the largest and most established accreditation framework in the sector. 


By focusing on clear signage, transparency, and consistent management practices, Park Assured aims to improve trust, reduce confusion, and support fair outcomes for motorists and landowners alike.

Why Park Assured Matters

Park Assured supports a better parking experience for everyone:


  • For motorists, it means clearer information and greater transparency about parking terms 
  • For landowners, it demonstrates that parking is managed to a recognised standard 
  • For operators, it provides a trusted framework that supports quality, consistency, and accountability 
  • For policymakers and stakeholders, it shows a commitment to improving standards across the sector 

By helping to eliminate unclear or substandard parking environments, Park Assured plays an important role in building confidence and trust. 


Park Assured reflects the IPC’s ongoing commitment to raising standards, improving transparency, and supporting a fair and consistent approach to parking on private land.
