Deciding what kind of storage is best for you

Seasonal car storage

Choose indoor storage (garage or facility) for protection, or secure outdoor storage with a cover. Maintain battery and tires.

Storing a car while in a large city

Use a secure parking garage, consider car storage services, or park in well-lit areas with anti-theft devices.

Military deployment car storage

Select a long-term storage facility with monitoring, trust friends or family, or consider renting it out for extra use.

Storing a business car or truck

Opt for commercial storage facilities, use on-site storage if available, and perform maintenance pre-storage.

Auto storage during a life change

Options include long-term storage facilities, trusted contacts (friends or family), or renting out the car for extra use.

Parking a car when you travel

Consider airport parking, storage facilities, or car storage services. Ensure your car is well-maintained before departure.

Tips to prepare your car for storage

Properly preparing a car for short- or long-term storage prevents damage, maintains its value, saves on costs and makes pick-up easier

Clean the vehicle

Prevent damage from buildup and rust by cleaning the car's interior and exterior.

Fill fluids & stabilize

Fill coolant, brake fluid and transmission fluid. Fill the gas tank, add fuel stabilizer and drive for 15 minutes.

Change the oil

Avoid corrosion by changing the oil and filter and run the engine to circulate the fresh oil.

Protect your tires

Store on jack stands or tire saver ramps at a lower PSI or keep tires inflated and drive regularly.

Use a car cover

Store outdoors with a breathable, water-resistant, fitted cover that also covers the wheels.

Protect the battery

Disconnect the battery and store indoors or maintain the charge with a battery maintainer.

Seal openings

Keep rodents out - stuff the tailpipe, plug the air filter box intake duct and turn the A/C to “recycled air”.

Run the vehicle

Start the car and drive it periodically to circulate fluids and prevent flat spots on the tires.
