Spacer
Marketplace for space.
About Spacer
Spacer is a leading marketplace for parking and storage in the United States and Australia. It connects people seeking monthly parking or self-storage with locals who have a spare garage, driveway, or attic. By renting out these underutilized spaces, hosts can earn significant passive income, particularly in dense urban areas where parking is at a premium.
The platform handles all the logistics, including advertising the space, processing secure payments, and managing agreements. It is a legitimate and secure alternative to Craigslist for finding storage, offering a money-back guarantee for renters. Spacer has helped thousands of hosts monetize their empty square footage.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How much can I earn?

2. Is it free to list?
Yes, creating a listing on Spacer is completely free. Spacer adds a small markup to your listing price which is paid by the renter, or takes a small commission depending on the region.
3. How do I get paid?
Spacer collects the rent from the tenant every month and transfers it to your bank account. Payments are usually processed within the first few business days of the month.
4. Is my space insured?
Spacer offers property and liability guarantees in certain regions to protect hosts and renters. However, hosts are always encouraged to inform their home insurer that they are renting out part of their property.
5. specific minimum rental period?
Spacer focuses on monthly rentals, so the typical minimum booking is one month. This provides more stability for hosts compared to daily parking apps.
