Bike and EMPV Storage

Students should request a storage permit from Parking Facilities to leave their bicycle or electric or motor powered vehicle (EMPV) on campus over breaks during the academic year. Devices that are left unattended on campus are subject to being considered abandoned, which could result in removal/impoundment from the location.

Indoor, secured storage is available through Parking Facilities. All devices that are requested to be stored must be registered by Parking Facilities or the Purdue University Police Department (PUPD) using the 529 Garage mobile app/platform, and a registration sticker will be placed on the device.

Registration is free, occurs on a walk-in basis during business hours at Parking Facilities (STEW, room G054) or PUPD (TERY, 205 S. Martin Jischke Drive, West Lafayette) and is a one-time process per device. If registration has not previously been completed, bring your bike with you to STEW or TERY to complete the process prior to storing it for the summer.

Summer Storage

Device storage is available between May 4-Aug. 18 for $30 per bike or EMPV. Drop offs and pick ups can occur Monday through Friday between 7:30 a.m.-4 p.m. at STEW, room G054. 

The storage permit is intended to last the duration of the summer for devices that will not need to be accessed during that time. A new storage rate will be assessed for bicycles or EMPVs that are picked up and then brought back to STEW, room G054 to be stored again prior to Aug. 18. 

Complete this online form once per device to request a summer storage permit. Parking Facilities will follow up with the individual through email once the request has been approved to provide next steps for purchasing through the online parking portal. No payment is required until the time of purchase.
