LONE STAR VALET & STAR PARKING SYSTEMS: COVID-19 OPERATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY GUIDELINES

We understand the concerns regarding COVID-19, and we can help. We are taking COVID-19 very seriously in our daily operations and have made significant changes to the way we do business to ensure the safety of our team and your guests:

  • Hand sanitizer and disinfectant products are available for all operations. All team members use hand sanitizer before and after the handling of keys, luggage, and other items.
  • Disinfecting facilities, equipment, and vehicles – Counters, valet stands, keyboards, phones, and other high traffic areas or objects are cleaned regularly with disinfectant wipes.
  • Social distancing – Where possible, our teams are maintaining proper distance between each other and guests, following the 6-foot social distancing recommendations
  • No in-person team meetings
  • Staggered employee start times
  • Remote office staff work flows
  • Educating and training for our team about COVID-19 operating procedures
  • Lining steering wheels when appropriate
  • PPEfor parking attendants and valets including masks and gloves
  • When valeting a customer’s vehicle, valets will clean all vehicle touch points with disinfecting wipes, including key fobs, steering wheels, door handles (inside and out) and gear shifts
  • In our shuttle operations, we implement social distancing practices by transporting a smaller group of guests (half capacity) and/or making more trips for larger groups. We frequently wipe down seats and other commonly touched areas with disinfecting wipes and carry hand sanitizer in each vehicle.
  • In our healthcare locations, we are providing golf cart transportation for disabled or handicapped patients and assisting with car unloading while wearing PPE masks and gloves.
