The approach involves determining at least one adjustment to the one or more of the parked vehicles based, at least in part, on the one or more parking conditions. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, (a) a presentation of at least one notification regarding the one or more parking conditions, the at least one adjustment, or a combination thereof (b) an activation of the one or more automatic movement systems to perform the at least one adjustment; or (c) a combination thereof.
