Drop your car off at our most popular car park at Southend.

Covid-secure

The Maple Parking team have introduced a whole host of measures designed to make your journey as safe and contact-free as possible.

The parking office, toilets and waiting area get a deep clean twice a day and there'll be hand sanitiser throughout your journey for you to use. All of the parking team have temperature checks before they start each day and will be wearing PPE (masks and gloves). You'll be asked to wear a mask on the bus too.

Buses are cleaned throughout the day and there'll be fewer passengers per bus, but don't worry there are more running. Before you get back your car and keys will be disinfected.

Need to know

Park in an arrivals lane and drop your keys at reception. Your car will be parked for you while you get the shuttle bus to the airport. The buses run continuously and take 5 minutes. They run from 3.45am until the airport closes and a return journey is included in the price.

When you get back the bus will pick you up where you were dropped off.

Accessibility

There are 3 accessible parking spaces - please call us before you book to request one.

Security

The car park is secured by:

• 'Park Mark' awarded
• CCTV
• Fencing
• 24-hour staff presence

The small print

Government regulations require passengers on shuttle buses to wear a face mask. Remember to bring a face mask and have it on before you get on the bus. You'll need one for each member of your party.

Early or late? The car park offer a grace period of up to midnight on the date you have booked to collect your car. If you go into the next day you will be charged the standard rate of £10 per day. Please note this is subject to change.

Most standard cars (without trailers/not commercial vehicles) will be accepted at the car park as long as they fit in a standard-size parking bay (2.4m x 4.8m).

The car park cannot accept vehicles with 8 or more seats. If you're bringing a long wheel based vehicle you'll be required to pay an additional supplement on arrival at the car park. The supplement will equal half of the total cost of the booking.
