Contractors

All vehicles parked on the PSU campus must display a valid parking permit at all times except while parked in designated loading zones for under 30 minutes. PSU does not pay for contractor parking. Contractors are responsible for paying all parking fees and fines for their employees, consultants, sub-contractors and suppliers. Parking options vary depending on length of time needed; however parking is extremely limited, therefore limiting the number of vehicles brought to campus is appreciated.

Loading Options

PSU’s 30-minute loading zones do not require payment or a parking permit. Thirty-minute loading zones on the street also do not require payment or a parking permit but are limited to commercial vehicles. Permits for areas not designated as loading zones may be purchased at our office during business hours or from the Parking Structure 1 attendant, located at SW 6th & Harrison St., beginning at 6:30 am Monday-Saturday.

Short-term Parking

Hourly and daily parking is available in various locations on campus. For a complete list of PSU garages and lots, current rates and accepted payment types, visit the Short-term Parking page or contact us during business hours. Short-term permits may be purchased at the Transportation & Parking office

$3/hour or $11/day
$48/week
$106-$205/ month

Long-term Parking

Contractors needing to park on campus for more than 3 months are encouraged to purchase annual permits, which are billed to the company each month. Annual permits must be arranged in advance by contacting Nikki Kress at nkress@pdx.edu or 503-725-4213.

Reserved Spaces on the Street

If a project occurs adjacent to a city street, reserving space on the street is highly recommended. Space must be requested 3 business days in advance. Information on rates and availability may be obtained by calling the City of Portland Permit Office at (503) 823-7365.

Parking within a Construction Fence

Vehicles are not allowed to park within a project’s fenced area except for under 30 minutes for deliveries, loading and unloading. If circumstances warrant an exception to this, please contact the PSU Facilities & Planning Project Manager.
