Following a comprehensive market analysis that found Charleston County’s monthly and transient parking rates to be below prevailing market values, the County will implement rate adjustments at the Cumberland (90 Cumberland Street) and King and Queen (85 Queen Street) garages to bring them more in line with comparable facilities, effective October 1, 2025. This adjustment will create a consistent pricing structure for transient rates across all downtown garages. Funds will be utilized to perform critical facility maintenance and repairs, as well as to offset costs like credit card fees.
New transient rates for all county garages:
- $1 per 20 minutes
- $24 daily max
- $50 lost ticket fee
New monthly rates (24/7 access):
- King and Queen Garage: $215 per month
- Cumberland Garage: $175 per month
Please note that Charleston County no longer offers a Daytime Parking Access rate. Contracts and billing for those currently receiving Daytime Access will automatically default to the new 24/7 rate.
For cardholders with an automatic credit or debit card on file, payments will be processed on November 1, 2025 (for October) at the new rate amount.
For additional information, patrons should contact the Parking Office at 843-724-6786.
