How does Toad Parking Manchester Airport work?
Arrival
Upon your arrival, you will be greeted by a staff member and guided to a parking spot during check-in. Once you have collected your luggage, you will hand over the key to the vehicle and make your way to the shuttle bus, which will take you to the airport. A trained staff member will park your vehicle for you in their secure car park.
It is recommended that you arrive at least 2 hours before your check-in desk closing. This is to ensure that there is plenty of time to get you to the airport. Due to roadworks and congestion, shuttle bus travel times might be longer than expected. Make sure to bring your booking confirmation with you to show to the staff member when you arrive.
Return
After collecting your luggage and clearing customs, you should call Toad Parking to arrange your return to the car park. The phone number will be provided to you on your booking confirmation. You will then be directed to the pick-up/drop-off area directly next to the terminal entrance to meet the shuttle bus driver.
Once they return you to the car park, you will find your vehicle close to where you dropped it off. It will be ready to be driven home at a moment’s notice, once you have loaded up your luggage. Make sure you have your booking confirmation to present to the staff member upon your return.
Airport Transfer
A shuttle bus is offered to customers who need a transfer to or from the airport. During April to October, this bus will depart every 20 minutes. Between November and March, the bus will be departing twice an hour at 20 past and 40 past of each hour.
Large Vehicles
For over-sized vehicles, Toad Parking charges a £10.00 surcharge. This applies to vans, transit vans and caravans. This fee is payable upon your arrival.
