Security Measures
Long Stay Stansted is fully secured and has CCTV, security fencing and lighting at night. It is manned 24 hours a day and there are regular site patrols. Long Stay Stansted has also been awarded the Park Mark, a national security award accredited by the Association of Chief Police Officers. To achieve the Park Mark, car parks have to be inspected by the police to prove that they have modern security measures and are clean and well-lit.
Other Services Provided
Full customer service provision (between the hours of 12:00 - 02:00), free battery recharge service. Free AA cover from 12:00 - 02:00.
Arrival Procedure
The car park has automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) - so make sure you give us the correct car registration number when you book. Please take a copy of your booking confirmation to the car park with you. The entry barrier will lift automatically when it recognises your number plate, and will give you a ticket with your booking reference printed on it - keep this ticket. Then all you need to do is park your car and wait at the bus stop for the shuttle bus to the terminal. The machine should take no more than about 15 seconds to recognise your number plate and give you a ticket. If this doesn't happen, just press the help button.

Information
[b]Because this is a special offer, you can't change your booking once it's made, and if you cancel, you won't be able to get a refund. Parking charges are calculated in periods of 24 hours, starting from the time when you arrive at the car park. If you stay for more days than you booked, you will be charged for the extra days at the car park's standard daily rate. If you stay for fewer days than you booked, you will not be given a refund. You need to give us your car registration number either when you book, or sometime before you go. It needs to be the right one - if you change the car you're going to be travelling in, you need to give us the new details. You must do this, or the car park will charge you £10 when you leave, because if they don't have the right registration number, it holds things up when you arrive and leave. Previously operated by Meteor under the Pink Elephant® brand, this car park is now called Stansted Long Stay and is operated by Empark.
Departure Procedures
Your booking reference should be printed on the ticket you were given when you arrived at the car park, above the barcode, so you just need to drive to the exit barrier and put your ticket in the slot. If your ticket doesn't have your booking reference on, you'll need to find a member of staff and show them your ticket and your booking confirmation so they can let you out - or press the 'call' button on the exit barrier.
