Back to Cheap Toronto Airport Parking | Complete YYZ Airport Parking Guide

Toronto airport parking off site is a parking arrangement where privately operated lots near Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) store your vehicle and get you to the terminals by shuttle, valet or rideshare, starting from about C$6/day. Posted on-airport rates are C$42/day at the Daily Park garages and C$32/day at Value Park Garage. Triply sells 13 off-site lots, and for a week most of them cost well under the posted on-airport 7-day totals (C$235 at Daily Park, C$160 at Value Park Garage). Park One's curbside valet is the exception and costs more than Value Park Garage.

• Price range: from about C$6/day (Chandni Victoria, no shuttle) to about C$26/day (Park One Toronto curbside valet). The cheapest lot with a free shuttle is EZ Airport Parking at about C$7/day.
• Transfers differ by lot: a free shuttle is stated at five lots (EZ Airport Parking, Jetway Parking, NU Hotel, Best Western Premier Carlingview, Skyway Park North lot). The Westin charges C$8 to the airport, Car Park Pearson's on-demand shuttle is not stated as free, and Routes runs 7 AM to 11 PM only. Two lots valet you in your own car, two valet at the terminal, and Chandni Victoria has no shuttle.
• Distance: lots are listed 1.1 to 2.6 miles from YYZ, except Skyway Park North lot at 4.4 miles. Park One stores cars 0.5 miles away.
• Budget pick with a shuttle: EZ Airport Parking at about C$7/day has a free shuttle 24 hours every 30 minutes and lists covered parking. You leave your keys, and large vehicles pay C$12/day extra at the lot.
• Minimum stay: eight lots require 2 to 7 days, so check before booking a short trip.
• Free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in.

What Is Off-Site Airport Parking at Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and How Does It Work?

Off-site parking is a private alternative to the Greater Toronto Airports Authority's on-airport garages. You park at a lot near YYZ, and the lot gets you to Terminal 1 or Terminal 3 by shuttle or valet, or you take a short rideshare if the lot has no shuttle.

The process is straightforward. You book online, drive to the lot on departure day (or meet the valet), and the lot handles the transfer. On return, most lots ask you to call once you have your luggage, and valet lots bring your car to you. Every lot listed here is bookable through Triply's YYZ search, with free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in.

There are four service types across the 13 lots:

• Shuttle lots: Park your car, then take the lot's shuttle to the terminal. Examples: EZ Airport Parking, Jetway Parking, NU Hotel, Skyway Park North lot. Hours and fees differ: Routes runs 7 AM to 11 PM only and The Westin charges C$8 to the airport.
• Valet in your own car: A staff member drives you to the terminal in your vehicle. Examples: Drop N Park Valet and Park For U.
• Valet at the terminal: Simply Park Toronto Pearson meets you at the terminal, and Park One Toronto curbside valet takes your keys at the departures curb.

One outlier is Chandni Victoria, which has no shuttle. You park at the hotel lot and take a short rideshare to the terminal (about 5 minutes per the listing; the rideshare cost is not included). That trade-off is why it's the cheapest option at about C$6/day. It has a 3-day minimum.

Which Off-Site Toronto Airport Parking Lots Offer Free Shuttle Service?

Five of the 13 lots state a free shuttle. The Westin charges C$8 to the airport, Car Park Pearson's on-demand shuttle is not stated as free, and Routes runs only 7 AM to 11 PM. Four lots skip the shuttle and use valet instead, and Chandni Victoria has no shuttle at all.

• EZ Airport Parking: Free shuttle, 24 hours, every 30 minutes. Covered parking is listed. You leave your keys.
• Jetway Parking: Free shuttle, 24/7, on demand. Call from the lot on arrival.
• NU Hotel: Free shuttle, 24 hours, every 30 minutes (on the hour and half-hour). A 20 to 30 minute wait is possible.
• Skyway Park North lot: Free shuttle, 24/7, on demand, with luggage assistance.
• Best Western Premier Toronto Airport Carlingview: Free shuttle, but book the ride to the airport a day ahead. No shuttle 1:30 to 4 AM.
• Car Park Pearson: Shuttle 24/7 on demand (call 416-806-6024). The listing does not say it is free.
• Routes Toronto Pearson: Shuttle every 15 minutes, but only 7 AM to 11 PM. The lot is locked from 11 PM to 7 AM.
• The Westin Toronto Airport: Shuttle 24 hours every 30 minutes, but it costs C$8 to the airport and is not in the Triply price. The ride back is free.

If you have an early morning or late-night flight, Routes Toronto Pearson is risky: the shuttle stops at 11 PM and the lot is locked until 7 AM, with no access to your car. EZ Airport Parking, Jetway Parking and NU Hotel run shuttles around the clock, and Car Park Pearson's is on demand 24/7.

How Far Are Off-Site YYZ Parking Lots from the Terminal?

Triply's lots are listed 1.1 to 2.6 miles from YYZ, except Skyway Park North lot at 4.4 miles, the farthest. Park One stores cars 0.5 miles away. Toronto Pearson itself sits about 22 km northwest of downtown Toronto, near Highway 401 and Highway 427.

Distance alone doesn't tell the whole story. A 5-minute drive becomes a 20-minute experience if you wait 15 minutes for an infrequent shuttle. Here's how shuttle frequency affects your real travel time:

• EZ Airport Parking (1.3 mi): Shuttle every 30 min, 24 hours
• Jetway Parking (1.5 mi): On demand 24/7, call from the lot
• Car Park Pearson (1.5 mi): On demand 24/7, call 416-806-6024 on arrival
• NU Hotel (1.1 mi): Every 30 min on the hour and half-hour, with a possible 20 to 30 minute wait
• Skyway Park North lot (4.4 mi): On demand 24/7 with luggage help, the longest ride
• Drop N Park Valet (1.8 mi): No shuttle wait, a valet drives you to the terminal in your own car

Before your trip, always check real-time traffic on Waze. Highway 401 and Highway 427 near Pearson can add significant time during morning and evening rush hours.

Economy vs Valet vs Self-Park: Which Off-Site Option Is Right for Your Trip?

The right choice depends on your priorities: budget, convenience, or vehicle protection. Here's how the service types compare for YYZ travelers.

Economy Shuttle Lots (Best for Budget)

Lots like EZ Airport Parking (about C$7/day) and Jetway Parking (about C$8/day) pair low daily rates with free shuttles. At both you leave your keys. Jetway is a valet-park lot, and at peak times your car may be moved to a gated overflow lot on Derry Rd. Jetway needs a 3-day minimum; EZ has none.

Valet in Your Own Car (Best for Speed)

At Drop N Park Valet (about C$7/day) and Park For U (about C$8/day), a staff member drives you to the terminal in your own vehicle, so there is no shuttle wait. Both have a 3-day minimum. At Simply Park Toronto Pearson (about C$8/day), the valet meets you at the terminal and brings the car back to you there. It has no minimum stay, but availability varies by date.

Hotel Park-and-Fly (Best for Comfort + Early Flights)

The Best Western Premier Toronto Airport Carlingview (about C$12/day) has a covered indoor garage and a free shuttle you book a day ahead, with a 4-day minimum. NU Hotel (about C$13/day) has a free 24-hour shuttle and a 24/7 front desk, and The Westin Toronto Airport (about C$12.50/day) adds C$8 to reach the airport. Triply sells parking only at these hotels, not rooms.

For a deep comparison of valet options, including the airport's own Valet Care service (posted at C$56/day plus a C$20 valet fee), see our Toronto airport parking valet guide.

How to Book Off-Site Toronto Airport Parking and What to Expect on Arrival

Booking toronto airport parking off site takes under five minutes. Here's what the process looks like from start to finish.

1. Search by date: Enter your departure and return dates at Triply's YYZ parking search.
2. Compare lots: Check price, shuttle or valet details and minimum stay. Some lots require 2 to 7 days.
3. Book and pay online: Free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in. Prices shown are before 13% HST, added at checkout. Park One takes most of its payment at the curb, and EZ and NU charge large vehicles C$12/day at the lot.
4. Get your confirmation: Save the lot address, phone number and any check-in instructions. Some lots (like Drop N Park Valet) ask you to call on arrival.
5. On departure day: Go to the lot (Simply Park and Park One meet you at the terminal). Airlines suggest arriving 2 hours before your flight, so reach the lot before that window. Routes asks for 3 hours, and NU asks you to arrive at least 1 hour before you need to leave for the airport.
6. At the lot: Check in. For valet lots, hand over your keys or follow the valet instructions. For shuttle lots, board the van to your terminal.
7. On return: Most lots ask you to call once you have your luggage. Waits vary by lot, and NU warns of 20 to 30 minutes.

One practical tip: find out your terminal before you go. Terminal 1 serves Air Canada, United Airlines, Lufthansa, Emirates, and others. Terminal 3 serves WestJet, Delta, American Airlines, British Airways, Air France, KLM, and Porter Airlines. Most shuttle operators will confirm your terminal at check-in, but knowing ahead saves confusion.

Pro tip: Call the lot directly if you land after midnight. On-demand lots like Car Park Pearson (416-806-6024) and Skyway Park North lot (1-800-474-3820) operate 24/7, but it's worth confirming your return pickup during busy travel periods.

Is Off-Site Parking at Toronto Pearson Safe and Secure?

Security varies across the 13 lots, and not every lot has a 24/7 front desk (Routes is locked from 11 PM to 7 AM). Several lots list gated perimeters, CCTV and on-site staff.

• Jetway Parking: Fully enclosed, gated lot with restricted entry and 24/7 CCTV
• EZ Airport Parking: Monitored 24/7/365 by staff and cameras; covered parking is listed
• Drop N Park Valet: Fully fenced, 24/7 cameras, regular patrols, wheelchair assistance
• Car Park Pearson: Gated multi-level garage (indoor level 2, rooftop level 3) with CCTV
• Simply Park Toronto Pearson: Fenced, gated, lit lot with cameras and 24/7 staff patrols
• Chandni Victoria: Well-lit, fully monitored lot with a 24/7 staffed front desk
• The Westin Toronto Airport: CCTV and an overnight security agent
• NU Hotel: Monitored 24/7/365 by staff and video

For longer trips, a covered lot is a good choice: the Best Western Premier Carlingview has an indoor garage, Car Park Pearson has covered parking on level 2 (the rooftop level is uncovered), and EZ Airport Parking lists covered parking. Covered parking helps in winter weather, a real concern for multi-week trips in January or February.

None of the lots Triply sells near YYZ lists dedicated EV charging. If you drive an electric vehicle, confirm availability directly with the lot before booking.

For accessibility: Drop N Park Valet, Park For U, Best Western Premier Toronto Airport Carlingview and NU Hotel all list wheelchair access or assistance. If accessibility is your priority, confirm the transfer vehicle with the lot when booking.
