Breakdown

airport parking is one of those purchases where the “average” means nothing. Here’s how to price it like an adult.

Assumptions (so ranges aren’t meaningless)

• Location: {fill in later} (prices vary a lot by metro)
• Scope: standard airport parking with no major surprises
• This is a draft: replace ranges with real quotes + sources

How to get a clean quote (and avoid nonsense add-ons)

• Ask for line items
• Confirm what’s included/excluded
• Get 3 quotes with the same scope
• Pay attention to disposal, haul-away, and “shop supplies” fees

If you’re trying to do it cheaper

• Bundle with other work
• Off-season scheduling
• Provide materials (only if you know what you’re buying)
• Avoid financing markups when possible

Bottom line
