Long-term car storage is one of the best things you can do for your prized possessions. You do not have to worry about parking, your car will be secured, and there will be other benefits.
There are many benefits to putting your car in a storage facility or unit. While there are expenses involved, the benefits tend to outweigh the cons. If you are on the fence about choosing storage for your car(s) or other vehicles, the below benefits may help you decide if it is right for you.
Parking
This is not an issue for everyone, but it is for a good amount of people. Not everyone has a big driveway or a garage. Some people do not have good parking policies where they live and that causes a hassle for people with more than one car. If you have a one-car garage, that is great, but if you have two cars, the thing to do would be to put the less used car in the garage then park your other car outside of the garage in the driveway. The car outside is then exposed to the elements. What if your cars are not the only ones at your house? What if there is limited street parking? What about having to pull one car out in order to get to the other car? Storing a car that is used rarely or seasonally may help free up parking at your home while keeping all of your vehicles safe.
Security
Security is probably the number one reason to look into car storage. Security ties in somewhat with the parking issues that can come up, but security is its own thing as well. Nice cars attract a lot of attention. . . both good and bad. You need to be prepared for bad attention. Your car could get stolen, damaged or towed if you are not careful. A good auto storage solution will keep your car protected 24/7.
Detailing
Did you know that the storage facility services include detailing? Storing your car in a facility is not just leaving your car in a garage for someone to walk by and do an eyeball test every now and then. Services such as window tinting, waxing, washing, wrapping, coating and more are included.
Car storage is not for everyone as there are expenses involved; however, if you live in an area with limited parking or are concerned about security, car storage may be the answer. If you own multiple vehicles and use them seasonally, it makes sense to store them in an off-site location to keep them in good condition. Car storage offers peace of mind that your car is being taken care of and is safe.
