Formerly Two Wheel Valet in the DC metro area.Onsite bike & bag valet simplifies the decision to walk, cycling, use transit or even a shared ride or scooter to get somewhere because the user can leave their bike, bag and accessories someplace safe. It offers a meaningful alternative to a bike rack or a storage locker for possessions. Primarily because the location is staffed and the contents left insured against loss. if the organizer is seeking to operate a carbon neutral venue or event, bike valet is an easy way to reduce GHG emissions.For a venue it is a convenience because of its flexibility. The valet is scalable, on demand and flexible. The ability to put 15-20 bikes in the space otherwise occupied by two cars mean that parking is less of total attendance constraint. Furthermore, valet improves the guest experience and contributes to operational simplicity. For example, prohibited items can be left with the valet and collected on departure. Finally, bike valet reduces neighborhood congestion around the venue when guests seek to leave. Cyclists typically clear an area much faster than cars. Similarly bike valet is a solution for ride share congestion resulting from exiting guests hailing vehicles. A valet bike or scooter is where it was left and can quickly be retrieved for their use by exiting guests.Bike Valet DMV acquired the operations of Two Wheel Valet in DC and surrounding communities in mid 2023. Two Wheel Valet has been providing bike valet across the DMV since 2013
