About LAZ Parking
LAZ Parking is one of the largest parking and transportation management companies in the United States, headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut. Founded in 1981, it operates and manages garages, surface lots, on‑street parking programs, shuttle services, and valet operations for office buildings, hospitals, airports, municipalities, universities, and event venues nationwide. Many of its facilities are identified by the street they are on, such as various Washington Street garages and lots in multiple cities, which can lead to abbreviated merchant descriptors on card statements.
A charge labeled something like “LS WASHINGTON STRE” is likely an abbreviated reference to a LAZ Parking–managed facility on Washington Street in a given city, where you or someone with access to your card paid for hourly, daily, or event parking. These charges can stem from paying at a kiosk, using a LAZ or partner parking app, or purchasing monthly parking. You may also see separate line items if you extended your stay, paid event pricing, or were billed for lost tickets or overtime fees.
To verify a LAZ Parking charge, start by checking any parking receipts, text confirmations, or app history from the date of the transaction, and match the amount and time to your bank statement. You can also look up the specific Washington Street location on lazparking.com using the city and date, or contact LAZ Parking Customer Care via the contact details on their website for help identifying the facility and charge. If a charge appears incorrect, gather your vehicle plate number, approximate parking times, and any proof of payment before calling or emailing; this will speed up resolving disputes, requesting adjustments, or seeking refunds where appropriate.
