Heathrow Airport Parking?

Hi,

I'm picking someone up from Terminal 5 next month.

I don't fancy paying £3 for 30 mins. Is there anyway around this???

Thanks for any help!

    pick them up from drop off but be ready to be told to move along if it's busy

    Is it possible to wait nearby without being told to move on?

    I've been told it's hard to find drop off point from arrivals.

    I pick up OH at the departures area. Best thing is not to arrive to early, remember that the flight arrivals need to pick up bags, get through passport control etc.

    It's pretty easy to drive round if you do get told to move on.

    There are two McDonalds on Bath Road were people (mostly chauffeur drivers) wait for pickups but the car parks are fairly small.
