Trying to find a vacant parking lot in PH is a daily struggle, especially in Metro Manila where looking for parking areas near the workplace is always a tall order. While many will say that the number of parking businesses means there's enough parking for everyone, knowing beforehand where they are and how much their fees cost is half the battle.
This is the case especially in Makati City's central business district. Yes, there is roadside free parking in Makati, but this only takes effect after-hours, not suitable for people who normally go to the office in the mornings. Malls are an option, but chances are they might require you to hoof it for quite a distance from your workplace.
So, your primary option for parking are the paid parking lots in Makaki and car parks, which cater specifically to Makati-based workers. Here’s a list of cheap parking in Makati 2019 we’ve found, along with their respective fees.
