Enjoy life with fewer parking hassles! TZA (towzonealerts.com) is a public service delivered over SMS aimed at curbing parking penalties in Boston.

Services include:

  2. Real-time parking alerts sourced by neighbors and parking enforcement officers
  3. "What's Happening" texts about fun/interesting local events and businesses
We also offer bumper stickers or postcards and gift cards to local businesses as a thank you when you get 2 neighbors to sign up.

We will send you a real-time text alert when someone reports it's parked incorrectly. If you have multiple vehicles, list all the plates here (comma-separated). 

You can improve reliability by flagging that your vehicle is in this peer alert system. Order a (free) sticker for your car windshield, dashboard, or bumper: towzonealerts.com/bumper-stickers

This is an experiment - the only thing we know for sure is that we won't spam you (no more than 1 message per week). You can always opt out by texting "No more whats happening".

11. You might be wondering — What's the catch? How do you make money?
Since the service saves time and money and improves efficiency, at first we thought surely some of the savings would come back to cover the costs. We now realize we must ask! Please help keep the service running by subscribing via PayPal for $10 total every 3 months ($3.33/month) or send a Venmo payment (@towzonealerts). Thank you!
