Top 10 Cheapest Parking Spots in Singapore (2026)
Stop overpaying for parking. We break down the cheapest HDB, URA, and LTA carparks across Singapore — with real-time data so you never circle the block again.
Parking in Singapore is expensive — but it doesn't have to be. While some CBD carparks charge $5–7 per hour, plenty of carparks across the island offer rates under $1.20/hr. The trick is knowing where to look.
We analysed real-time data from over 3,700 carparks — HDB, LTA, and URA — to find the most affordable spots. Here are the best options by area.
1. HDB Carparks: The Unbeatable Baseline
HDB carparks remain the cheapest parking option in Singapore. Most charge between $0.60–$1.20 per half hour, with many offering free parking on Sundays and public holidays.
The best part? There are over 2,000 HDB carparks island-wide. Unless you're in the middle of the CBD, there's probably one within walking distance.
Best areas for cheap HDB parking
- Toa Payoh — $0.60/30min, well-connected by MRT
- Ang Mo Kio — $0.60/30min, large multi-storey carparks
- Tampines — $0.60/30min, close to Tampines Mall
- Woodlands — $0.60/30min, near Causeway Point
- Jurong East — $0.60/30min, near Westgate and JEM
2. URA Carparks: Hidden Gems in Central Areas
URA carparks in the city centre can be surprisingly affordable if you know the off-peak windows. Many charge lower rates on weekends and evenings — perfect for dining or shopping trips.
3. Shopping Mall Carparks with Free Parking Deals
Several malls offer free parking with minimum spend:
- VivoCity — Free parking on weekdays before 6pm (1hr with $20 spend)
- Nex — 1hr free on weekdays with $30 spend
- Jewel Changi Airport — 1hr free with $50 spend on weekdays
4. Smart Strategies to Save More
- Park-and-ride: Park at a heartland HDB carpark near an MRT station and take the train into town. A 3-hour parking stint at $0.60/30min is only $3.60, versus $15+ at a CBD carpark.
- Time your visits: Many carparks have cheaper evening and weekend rates. Check before you go.
- Check real-time availability: Nothing wastes more money (and petrol) than circling for a lot. ParkingGoWhere shows live availability across all HDB, LTA, and URA carparks.
5. The Bottom Line
The cheapest parking in Singapore is almost always an HDB carpark. If you're heading into the city, park at a nearby HDB lot and walk or take the MRT for the last stretch. Your wallet will thank you.
