What types of violation alerts does ParkStash send?

ParkStash supports unlimited alert types including over parking, no permit violations, guest space violations, tow recorded, tow dispatched, citations issued, blocklisted vehicles, vehicle entry tracking, tailgating detection, duration tracking, tenant capacity exceeded, and high occupancy warnings (90%+). Plus, we build custom alerts for any specific requirement—your rules, your triggers, your notifications.

How fast are violation alerts sent?

Violation alerts are sent instantly—within seconds of detection. As soon as our LPR cameras detect a violation, alerts are pushed to site management, enforcement teams, and towing companies simultaneously so action can be taken immediately.

Who receives the violation alerts?

You can configure alerts to go to site management teams, enforcement personnel, towing companies, property managers, and security staff. Each recipient can receive alerts via their preferred channel: email, SMS text messages, or push notifications through the ParkStash app.

Can I customize which alerts I receive?

Absolutely! You have full control over alert settings. Configure which violation types trigger alerts, who receives them, and through which channels. For example, site teams might get all alerts while tow companies only receive tow dispatch notifications.

How does over parking detection work?

Our LPR cameras track when vehicles enter and exit. If a vehicle stays beyond the allowed time limit (e.g., 3 hours at a retail location), an over parking alert is automatically sent. This is perfect for grocery stores, retail lots, and mixed-use properties with time-limited parking.

What happens when a blocklisted vehicle is detected?

When a blocklisted license plate enters your property, an instant alert is sent to designated recipients. This is critical for security—identifying banned vehicles, repeat offenders, or vehicles involved in previous incidents immediately upon entry.

Can alerts trigger automatic tow dispatch?

Yes! You can configure rules so that after a certain number of violations or specific violation types, the system automatically generates a tow dispatch notice. Towing companies receive all violation evidence and vehicle details instantly for quick action.

How do violation alerts help with revenue recovery?

By catching violations instantly, you can take immediate action—issuing citations, dispatching tows, or enforcing payment. Properties using real-time alerts see significant revenue recovery from unpaid parking, reduced violations, and improved compliance.

Do alerts work with both Fixed and Mobile LPR?

Yes! Real-time violation alerts work with Fixed LPR cameras for 24/7 automated monitoring and Mobile LPR for on-demand enforcement. Both solutions integrate seamlessly to send instant alerts when violations are detected.

How do alerts help with safety and compliance reports?

All violations and alerts are logged with timestamps, photos, and license plate data. This creates a complete audit trail for safety reports and compliance documentation. Property managers can demonstrate proactive enforcement to ownership and insurance providers.
