What is a car storage facility?
Vehicle storage is a self-storage unit specifically designed to house a car or other type of vehicle. Think of it like a garage or parking space that you rent within a self-storage facility, with similar benefits depending on the storage company and unit that you choose, such as on-site security, gated access, and climate control.
The different services available with car storage.
We touched upon a few of the services in the previous paragraph; a partial list of services available in a car storage facility, depending upon the company you deal with:
- Simply a covered parking space
- Bubble-wrap protection
- Climate control units
- Periodic maintenance like tire inflation or starting the engine weekly.
- Periodic washing/waxing
The services available in a car storage facility depend upon where you store your vehicle. Storing at a self-storage facility can provide you with 24/7 security, climate control if needed/desires, and gated access only. A step up will bring you to designated car storage companies which can offer the deluxe car like bubble-wrapping or washing/waxing. The price increases as the services increase.
Which is best for you? Cost vs Need?
This, then, is the question only you can answer. What are you looking for in car storage? How long will you be away? How expensive is your vehicle? What kind of service does it need during extended trips vs what kind of service do you prefer?
Newer luxury cars are major investments, oftentimes topping the six-figure mark in cost, and that kind of investment calls for special care in order to maintain the resales value and the overall appearance of the vehicle. In those cases, looking for car storage which offers a wide range of services might be what you want AND need.
Cost? A simple storage unit at a self storage facility can cost you less than $100 per month. Specialized car self storage facilities can cost you somewhere in the $300-$500 range, per month.
What can you afford? What do you want? What do you need? We will leave you with those questions to be answered.
