Hospitals, country clubs, hotels, and many other businesses use valet parking tags. These help their guests get in and out without having to worry about parking. Some businesses offer valeting as a complementary service, while others offer the service day in and day out. When thinking about how many vehicles go through these types of businesses on a daily basis, one may realize how high the expense of buying pre-printed valet tickets might cost.

On average, the cost about $0.11 or $0.12 per valet parking permit when bought pre-printed. When you buy blank, printable valet parking tickets and print your own tags, you’ll only be paying about $0.08 per valet parking tag after printing.
