Heathrow Parking Recommendations
Discussion
We'll be flying out of Heathrow Terminal 4 and arriving back at Terminal 3 over Easter.
Has anyone any recommendations on where to park considering we'll be departing and arriving at different terminals? I'm hoping we can get a bus to all the car parks, or would we have to go to the other terminal first? Not sure if the car parks are per terminal or if they serve all terminals...

All the big parking firms around the airport run free shuttles to all the terminals. Just use one of them.

Thanks for the recommendations - I'll take a look at Purple Parking.
I see these are one of the ones that park the car for you - not overly keen on this - any issues with the cars being damaged?
Most of the long stay car parks do this, drop off at reception and they move your car to a spot that suits them for your return date. Purple also do a service where you give them the car at the airport and pick it back up at Arrivals on your return.I see these are one of the ones that park the car for you - not overly keen on this - any issues with the cars being damaged?
The alternates are Business parking

where you park your own car in a large secure car park and get shuttled to the terminal but its a lot more expensive than the likes of Purple parking.
If you're considering valet parking, go and have a look at how they're parked up before you hand over your keys. Some of these outfits would make a Parisian parker blush. That was a few years back, maybe improved now, but I watched them parking customers' cars and it was a full-contact sport.
Seconded places that keep your keys are to be avoided
Even if they don't use parking by touch in order to cram many into the available space as possible then there is a chance of the vehicle being put in a place you would avoid like the plague.
Park it yourself, choose a spot where it's protected on two sides sometimes even three sides if lucky. You know this makes sense.
