Tips for Proper Car Storage

Preparing your car properly before storage helps keep it in optimal condition. Follow these tips before placing your car in storage:

 

• Clean the exterior and interior: Remove dirt, debris, and moisture to prevent corrosion and mould.

• Check fluid levels: Ensure oil, coolant, and other fluids are at proper levels to avoid issues.

• Disconnect the battery: Prevent battery drainage by disconnecting or using a trickle charger.

• Inflate tires to the recommended pressure: Reduce the risk of flat spots forming during storage.

• Use a car cover: Protect the vehicle from dust and minor scratches, even in indoor storage.

 

Ensuring Vehicle Safety in Storage

For long-term storage, additional precautions help maintain your vehicle’s performance and security:

​

• Fuel stabilization: Adding a fuel stabilizer prevents the gasoline from breaking down.

• Rodent prevention: Sealing entry points and using deterrents help keep pests away.

• Periodic start-ups: If possible, starting the car occasionally helps maintain engine function.

• Insurance and registration: Keeping the vehicle insured while in storage is advisable for protection.

 

Vehicle Storage: A Complete Guide to Keeping Your Car Safe

Proper storage goes beyond simply parking a car in a secure space. To extend your vehicle’s lifespan, consider:

​

• Security features: Look for a facility with surveillance, controlled access, and secure fencing.

• Indoor vs. outdoor storage: Indoor storage offers more protection, while outdoor storage provides a cost-effective alternative.

• Accessibility and convenience: Choose a facility that allows flexible access based on your schedule.
