The City authorizes the reserving of metered parking stalls, commonly referred to as meter hooding or bagging, and charges a fee for this service. Similar to other municipalities, parking meter hooding in Saskatoon is primarily requested by building owners, property managers, contractors and moving companies to facilitate commercial services to a property.

The company/person paying for the stall to be reserved is responsible to report unauthorized parking. Violators receive a $50 ticket, and their vehicle can be towed to the impound lot.

In addition to 24-hour parking meter hoods, the City of Saskatoon introduced 11-hour parking meter hoods on January 1, 2011. When placed over a parking meter, the yellow and black 11-hour hoods clearly display that parking is restricted in that stall from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday. Parking is permitted in a stall identified with a yellow and black (11-hour) parking meter hood at times other than those displayed on the hood.
