Scratch-off permits for trades people
We issue scratch-off permits for trades people. These can be bought instead of, or as well as, the existing permission to park permits.
Scratch off permits can be bought in bulk and can be used as and when required. They are not dated and, therefore, if a job gets cancelled at the last minute the permit is not wasted.
Buying the permits in bulk also means that you do not have to purchase new permits every time you work in a new location in Camden.
Registering, cost and where to park
