Employee Parking Frequently Asked Questions
What identification documents do I need to bring to my appointment for a parking Prox Card?
A completed and signed Prox Card application and a valid driver’s license.
Can I register more than one vehicle on my account?
Yes, you may register up to four vehicles but only one is allowed in the lot at a time.
What if I lost my parking Prox Card?
Lost, stolen or damaged parking cards must be reported in person to Landside Operations immediately, call (775) 328-6566 or email gt@renoairport.com. Replacement cost for lost, stolen, damaged or unreturned Prox cards is $25.00. Replacement fee must be paid at the time a new card is issued at the parking office. No refunds/credits will be provided for Prox Cards returned after 30 days from date of replacement or last day of employment.
I no longer work at the airport, what do I do with my parking Prox Card?
You may return your airport issued Prox Card to your employer or the parking office in person or by mail.
I left my Prox Card at home, what do I do?
Landside Operations asks that you bring your prox card to work every day, but we understand there are sometimes extenuating circumstances. When you arrive at the entrance gate to the employee lot without your prox card, press the intercom button for assistance.
Someone broke into/ vandalized/ ran into my vehicle, what do I do?
Please call Airport Communications immediately at (775) 328-6600.
Do I have an option to park in the Airport Parking Garage?
You may park in the public parking lots but you will be charged the prevailing rate in that lot.
Do you have ADA Accessible employee parking?
Alternate arrangements will be made for any employee requiring ADA accessible parking. A DMV issued Authorization Letter must be presented to substantiate handicapped license plates and/or placards.
What if I ride a motorcycle or bicycle?
Gates will not open for alternate forms of transportation like motorcycles, mopeds and bicycles due to their smaller size, even with a Prox Card. Access is through the far right lane of the garage entrance marked short-term parking.
Motorcycles and mopeds may park for free inside the parking garage in the designated motorcycle parking area.
Designated motorcycle parking lanes are located near the entrance of the parking garage (southwest corner of the garage on the first-floor only).
Bicycle racks are available in two locations: On the first floor of the parking garage, in the southwest corner near Motorcycle Parking, and just outside of Door D at the north end of Baggage Claim.
