This video shows Waymo's depot operations, which is a combination of autonomous driving/parking plus manual charging/cleaning. Some locations are only used for parking the driverless Waymo vehicle and minimal staff. Other locations, such as Toland Street, are "full service" with DC fast charging and many employees. All three locations visited are surface parking lots, rather than the enclosed garages preferred by GM Cruise.
