Vendor Permits & Parking

• All vendors parked on USC campus must purchase and properly display a valid USC parking permit. This permit can be purchased at any open gate entrance between 6am-10pm each day. You must request a Vendor permit.
  
  
• This permit is allowed to park in any designated Yellow Zone for 1 hour maximum, for the purpose of loading/unloading. Parking longer than an hour will result in a citation for a Time Zone Violation.
  
  
• After loading/unloading or after reaching your 1 hour maximum, you must relocate into a nearby parking structure. Your permit is not allowed to park in any surface lot or street prior to 5pm weekdays. Doing so can result in a citation for Incorrect Parking Area.
  
  
• You cannot park in any spaces or areas that are posted with restrictions(i.e. Reserved, Carpool, Meters, Disabled, Yellow zones etc) at anytime unless your permit is assigned to that location/space.
  
  
• Compact Only / No SUV parking. Please ensure when parking in a USC parking structure, all spaces marked Compact Only or No SUV, requires that your vehicle size meets that guideline. If your vehicle's width takes up the entire space and/or protrudes over the lines of that space or prevents cars on either side of getting in or out of their vehicle or space, we ask you to relocate to a larger space that is not restricted and wider in size. Parking in these restricted spaces with a vehicle deemed too large as outlined above can result in a citation for Incorrect Parking area.
  
  
• All permits are the property of USC. All parking permits must be purchased from Transportation Services. Permits may not be exchanged from customer to another and may not be resold. Parking is assumed at owner’s risk.
