Valet service is the parking-attendant operation hotels, restaurants, and venues hire for guest parking handoff at $25-75 per car plus attendant labor and $1M+ COI. NYC operators book LAZ (awarded the Edison ParkFast contract December 1 2025), Icon Parking (acquired Hudson Valley Parking Trust + Broe Group July 22 2024), and GKL — DCWP licensing requires a $300K minimum bond (require $1M+ in vendor SOW), and 2026 valet-tech leaders are Parkable, Passenger Valet, PUR, O-Valet, and ParkHub.
Valet service is the line every NYC restaurant + hotel + private-event uses for guest arrival logistics. NYC valet market consolidated post-LAZ-Edison-acquisition (Dec 1 2025) and Icon Parking expansion (Hudson Valley + Broe Group acq July 2024). NYC DCWP licensing + bond requirements are the binding constraint.
