Campus Departments
Parking Services offers short-term parking options for departmental guests and meeting attendees. In addition to short-term parking, we have options that will suit your department’s needs.
Parkmobile
ParkMobile offers an avenue for departments to pay for their visitor’s campus parking. To pay for department guests with ParkMobile each department will need to open a “Basic Membership” account with ParkMobile. (This is the only account that allows guests/visitors to park within your account.) Log onto to begin your registration process. If you need assistance in setting up your department account the phone number for ParkMobile’s Help Desk is 877-727-5457. To open your account, you will need a department credit card, which will be charged each time you enter a guest validation on your “Personal Pages”. Review a current list of campus ParkMobile Pay-by-Phone parking lots and their locations. Verify CU Boulder lot numbers by looking at the CU Boulder parking map.
