Storing your vehicle for the first time can be intimidating, but it doesn't have to be! At The Storage Advantage, we strive to make the process seamless and hassle-free. Our vehicle storage services are crafted to give you peace of mind while keeping your vehicle in excellent condition.

What is Vehicle Storage?

Vehicle storage provides a secure location for your vehicle when it's not in use. It's beneficial for long trips, seasonal transitions, or simply freeing up space at home. Proper storage protects your vehicle from weather damage, theft, and vandalism while helping to maintain its value. Choosing our services is a wise investment in your vehicle's future.

Tailored Vehicle Storage Options

We offer a variety of storage solutions to suit your needs:

Indoor Storage

Perfect for luxury and classic cars, offering maximum protection from the elements.

Outdoor Storage

An economical vehicle option that can withstand outdoor exposure.

No matter your choice, you can relax knowing our storage facilities are monitored for your security.

Preparing Your Vehicle for Storage

To keep your vehicle in top condition while stored, follow these straightforward steps:

Clean it Up

Wash your vehicle inside and out to prevent rust and dirt buildup.

Change the Oil

Fresh oil keeps your engine healthy; change it and top off all fluids.

Disconnect the Battery

This helps prevent battery drain during storage.

Check Tire Pressure

Inflate your tires to the recommended level to avoid flat spots.

Cover it Up

A car cover protects your vehicle from dust and scratches.

Long-Term vs. Short-Term Storage

Whether you require long-term or short-term storage, we've got you covered. Long-term options often come with discounts and ensure your vehicle is cared for over time. Short-term storage is ideal for those needing flexibility without too much hassle. Our plans are designed to fit any situation!

Maintaining Your Vehicle While in Storage

Your vehicle needs some attention even while in storage. Here's a handy checklist to keep it in good shape:

Start it Occasionally

Aim to start your vehicle every few weeks to keep the battery charged and fluids circulating.

Monitor Fluid Levels

Regularly check and top off brake fluid, coolant, and oil.

Tire Maintenance

Keep an eye on tire pressure to prevent flat spots.

Battery Care

Use a battery maintainer if you can't start it regularly.

Inspect for Leaks

Check under your vehicle for leaks to catch any issues early.

Dust off Interiors

Regular cleaning prevents musty odors and keeps your vehicle fresh.

Use a Cover

A breathable cover protects against dust and moisture.

Perform Visual Checks

Look for signs of rust or wear occasionally.

Our team also conducts routine checks to ensure everything remains in excellent condition while your vehicle is stored.

Choosing the Right Storage Solution

The appropriate storage option is crucial for keeping your vehicle in good condition. Consider the following:

Your Vehicle's Needs

Different vehicles require different care; classic cars often benefit from climate control.

Budget

Prices vary by storage type, so balance your budget with the level of protection needed.

Duration of Storage

Long-term storage may need more preparation but offers significant benefits.

Accessibility

If you need regular access to your vehicle, look for a facility with 24/7 access.

Ensure the facility has solid security measures like surveillance cameras and keyless entry.

Location

A convenient location can save time, though prices vary based on the area.

Check if your policy covers vehicles while in storage.

Location Matters

Different vehicles require different care; classic cars often benefit from climate control.

Security

Cheaper options might skimp on safety features—always ask about security measures.

Facility Condition

Older facilities might offer lower prices but may not adequately protect your vehicle.
