Default Long Stay Car Parks At Uxbridge Tube Station

Hello,

Can anyone tell me if there are any long stay car parks at, or near
Uxbridge tube station and how much they cost?

Thanks.


Uxbridge station itself doesn't have a car park. However,
Uxbridge town centre has the multi-storey carparks attached to
The Mall and Chimes shopping centres:

The Chimes car park is open longer, is cleaner and more spacious, and
for longer stays has the advantage of being pay on exit with the option
of paying with cards or notes - the car parks attached to The Mall are
pay and display and the ticket machines are coin only (or at least were
the last time I was there a couple of weeks ago - there appeared
to be new machines covered up next to each of the old ones...). From
any of these car parks it's about a 5-10 minute walk to the station.

Behind the station there's a Sainsburys with a fairly large pay and
display car park. There doesn't seem to be a price list online and I
can't remember what it cost last time I parked there, but it's another
option:

Whilst any of these are OK for longer stays on a single day, I wouldn't
recommend them if you're looking to leave your car somewhere for several
days at a time. If that's what you're after, then you might want to
consider the car park next to Hillingdon station (one stop up the line
from Uxbridge):

Alternatively, if you don't mind a bit of a bus/taxi ride to get to and
from your car, then Heathrow Airport isn't all that far from Uxbridge,
and offers a variety of parking options for various lengths of stay...
