EXHIBIT 99.1

Standard Parking Corporation Acquires Seattle's Downtown Valet

CHICAGO, Nov. 11, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Standard Parking Corporation (Nasdaq:STAN) today announced that it has completed the acquisition of certain assets of Downtown Valet, LLC in Seattle, Washington. Downtown Valet, one of Seattle's valet parking leaders, provides first class valet services to prominent hotel, restaurant and special event clients, including the Grand Hyatt Hotel, the Pan Pacific Hotel, Daniel's Restaurant and the El Gaucho restaurant chain. The acquisition adds 15 valet locations and numerous special event clients to Standard Parking's portfolio.

In addition, the Company entered into long-term employment contracts with Downtown Valet's principals, Jay Snowden and Martin Montano. Messrs Snowden and Montano will remain responsible for managing the growth of the Company's valet service portfolio in the greater Seattle area.

James A. Wilhelm, President and Chief Executive Officer of Standard Parking said, "I am delighted that we have been able to add Jay Snowden and Marty Montano to our management team. They are seasoned entrepreneurs who are well known in Seattle's valet parking industry for their commitment to excellence in customer service. The consummation of this transaction marks our second acquisition in the Seattle market, and further enhances our ability to grow in the Pacific Northwest."

Wilhelm continued by noting that, "We expect to be able to integrate this acquisition with little or no incremental G&A, thereby realizing a total purchase price multiple within our desired range of 4x to 6x EBITDA. Our expectation is that this acquisition will be accretive on an on-going basis, pending the completion of a purchase price allocation analysis."

Standard Parking is a leading national provider of parking facility management, ground transportation and other ancillary services. The Company, with more than 13,000 employees, manages approximately 2,200 parking facilities, containing over one million parking spaces in more than 330 cities across the United States and Canada, including parking-related and shuttle bus operations serving approximately 60 airports.
