Who we are

Who is Platinum Parking?

Platinum Parking is a Canadian-owned parking management company with operations across British Columbia, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan.

We focus on simplifying parking management for property owners while ensuring a seamless experience for drivers. Our strength lies in blending local knowledge with modern tools — bringing efficiency, reliability, and a human touch to every lot we manage.

Company’s History

Where we started, and where we’re going.

Platinum Parking was created with a simple mission — to modernize parking management while maintaining the values that matter most: honesty, reliability, and community focus.

1958

Robbins Parking Service was found in 1958 as a small, one-lot business– our first lot was on Broughton and Douglas.

Jack Robbins founded Robbins Parking in 1958 as a small one-lot business, managing a parking lot on Broughton and Douglas. Jack’s vision was not to be the biggest parking solutions provider, but the best. With this goal, applying a personalized and hands-on approach to every parking facility he managed, he saw success and expanded quickly..

1999

Paul T. Clough, our Chairman and CEO, bought Robbins in 1999. Paul guided this Vancouver Island company back to its roots, operating under the premise that no two lots are exactly the same and approaching each job with an open mind and a fresh eye. Adding to our unusual, tailored style of parking management is our many years of experience.

2004

We provide parking management services to over 210 parking facilities through our sister companies- Platinum Parking and Nortech.

2010

Our first license plate recognition (LPR) vehicle is introduced. Robbins was the first parking management company in Western Canada to operate LPR operations.

2021

We currently manage about 250 parking lots throughout Vancouver Island, as well as on—street parking in Sidney and Nanaimo and Langdale Ferry Terminal. We recently started parking and permit management for the District of Tofino.

Today

Today, Platinum Parking continues to expand across British Columbia, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan — combining innovation with decades of on-the-ground experience.

Future

Who knows what is next for Platinum Parking, but we are excited about the future. Stay tuned.

Why Platinum Parking

Why Platinum Parking.

Because we understand that parking is more than space management — it’s about trust, efficiency, and local relationships. Our team offers the personal attention of a regional company with the reliability of a national provider.

Parking is hands-on, boots-on-the-ground work. Our senior management team cut their teeth in the industry and has deep knowledge of parking. Of course, we also hire from outside the industry, but our newer team members benefit from our senior management team’s vast experience and are imbued with valuable parking management fundamentals. Foremost, that means rolling up our sleeves, walking properties, and seeing firsthand how a parking facility is operating.

We truly love parking! For us, parking is an operations puzzle, and we thrive on tailoring solutions to each facility’s unique needs and challenges while balancing elements like customer service, technology integration, revenue maximization, enforcement, and collections protocols. Balancing all these elements, and so many more, requires deep understanding, experience, and passion.

We strive to align our interests with those of our clients. We do not pit our interests against our clients’. We succeed when our clients succeed.

We are an honest, reliable, hard-working team. We do not overpromise, then underdeliver. We never leave our parking operations under-patrolled, unmanaged, or forgotten. We know our long-term success comes from doing what is right and working in our clients’ best interests. And we wouldn’t have it any other way.

We value honest communication and personalized customer service. Our history of high customer satisfaction speaks to that. We truly believe in enhancing customer experience and safety. We also work hard in creating a healthy, engaging, and empowered workplace.
