How does parking work at Stockland Wetherill Park?

  • The first 3 hours are free; casual rates apply after 3 hours.
  • Parking is free with entry after 6pm.
  • Mobility permit holders and Seniors Card holders get free all-day parking. The page says terms and conditions apply, and you register your valid mobility parking scheme permit or Seniors Card at Customer Care.

The page also tells customers to visit Customer Care in the centre for more information, and links to a form to register an online parking account.

How many car spaces are there, and what else is on offer?

The centre says it has over 2,600 car parking spaces, and that all its car parks give access to the centre by lift or travellator. Disabled and Parents with Pram spaces are near the entrances. There are two dedicated electric vehicle charging bays on P1, near the Kinchin Lane entrance, and the page says Electric Vehicles and Tesla owners can charge for free there. Park Assist technology helps customers find spaces in the undercover car parks.

Can I get there without a car?
