Contractor and Vendor

A valid permit/pass for your vehicle is required at all times when parking in other than pay-to-park facilities. Representatives of service companies that have a contract to deliver goods or services on campus may apply for a parking permit. There will be a fee associated with the parking permit.

Contractors can purchase a limited number of contractor passes for the duration of the project or contract term. A contractor pass allows parking for up to 15 minutes in a service vehicle space and long term parking in central, gray, or red lots. A Night/Weekend permit is available and is valid in non-restricted lots after 5 PM, all day on weekends, and university holidays. It has no parking privileges on campus during restricted hours. Contractors can purchase online if they have a login and password provided by UD Parking Services. 

Vendors with highly recognizable vehicle logos performing routine deliveries/pick-ups at University buildings and requiring less than fifteen minutes are exempt from any permit requirement and must park in the service vehicle spaces.

Government vehicles displaying state or federal license plates are exempt from the permit requirement.

The University operates four (4) pay-to-park facilities that you are welcome to utilize. Pay-to-park sites are located at: Lot 41 South College Avenue next to the Visitor Center; Lot 17C the parking garage on West Main Street next to the Trabant University Center, Lot 14C the parking garage on Amstel Avenue west of the Center for the Arts, and Lot 4C the parking garage on Academy Street south of the Perkins Student Center.

As a non-university employee, you are eligible to purchase a Visitor Pass which is only valid in designated remote parking lots – Lots #1, 2, 88, 3, 7, 51, 52, and 54.

Monthly parking permits for a parking garage may be purchased if space is available. This permit allows 24/7 parking in the assigned garage and red lots.
