How to Generate a Customer Parking Only Sign
- Enter your business name. Type the name customers know you by, such as Main Street Cafe.
- Pick a sign color. Choose navy, red or green for the banners, border and symbol.
- Choose a bottom message. Select Violators Will Be Towed, Unauthorized Vehicles Will Be Towed, Time Limit Enforced or Thank You for Visiting.
- Add hours or a time limit (optional). Type a short line such as 2 Hour Limit or Mon–Sat 9AM–6PM.
- Download or copy. Click Download Sign to save a PNG, or Copy Sign to paste it into a document, then print and post it.
Which Customer Parking Message Should You Choose?
- Violators Will Be Towed: warns drivers that vehicles that don't belong may be removed. Check local towing signage rules before using it.
- Unauthorized Vehicles Will Be Towed: a more specific version for lots shared with neighbors or nearby buildings.
- Time Limit Enforced: pairs well with a details line such as 2 Hour Limit.
- Thank You for Visiting: a friendlier option for businesses that would rather not lead with towing.
Tips for Posting a Customer Parking Only Sign
- Post signs at the entrance to the lot and at the front of the spaces, at eye level for drivers.
- Keep the business name short so it can be read from a moving car.
- Use a laminated or weatherproof print for anything outdoors.
- If you share a lot with neighbors, talk to them and the property owner before posting customer-only signs.
- Accessible (disabled) parking spaces have their own legal signage requirements. Don't use a generic sign for those.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Generate Customer Parking Only Sign tool?
It is a free tool from PayToPark that creates a printable Customer Parking Only sign in your browser. You enter your business name, choose a sign color and a bottom message such as Violators Will Be Towed, add optional hours or a time limit, then download or copy the sign as a PNG image.
Is the Customer Parking Only sign maker free, and do I need an account?
The tool has no payment step and does not require an account. The sign is drawn in your browser, so there is nothing to sign up for or upload.
What can I put on a Customer Parking Only sign?
Use the Business Name field for up to 24 characters, such as Main Street Cafe. The optional Hours or Details field adds a line of up to 30 characters, such as 2 Hour Limit or Mon-Sat 9AM-6PM. Choose a bottom message from Violators Will Be Towed, Unauthorized Vehicles Will Be Towed, Time Limit Enforced or Thank You for Visiting.
What size is the sign I download?
The sign is a portrait PNG that is 800 by 1200 pixels, a 2:3 ratio. It prints sharply at about 4 by 6 inches. Larger prints will look softer, so for big outdoor signs consider having a sign shop reproduce the design.
Can I tow cars that park in customer-only spaces?
Not based on a sign alone. Rules for towing signage, including required wording, size, placement and contact information, vary by state and city. Check your local requirements and any towing company agreement before relying on a sign to enforce towing. Accessible (disabled) parking spaces also have their own legal signage requirements, so this tool is not meant for those.
What other parking signs can I make?
PayToPark has free generators for other signs. Try the No Parking sign generator, the Reserved Parking sign generator or the Car For Sale sign generator, or use the Pay to Park sign maker to let drivers scan and pay at your lot.
Want to Charge for Parking Instead?
Enter your email and we'll help you get a zone code assigned to your lot so drivers can scan and pay, then come back and generate a Pay to Park sign.
