If you want to know more about whether you can store your car in self-storage, or how to store your car in self-storage, you’ve come to the right place.
Hello car enthusiasts, car owners, and self-storage seekers. If you want to know more about whether you can store your car in self-storage, or how to store your car in self-storage, you’ve come to the right place.
Let's dive straight in! Or should we say, drive straight in…
Yes, you definitely can store a car in self-storage. Or, at least you can at our self storage facility in Cardiff (and around Wales). Self-storage units come in various sizes, so this might not be true for everyone, however our 160 square foot units are certainly car-friendly. Some units in the UK are even designed specifically to store vehicles, including cars, trucks, RVs, and boats.
Whatever your reason for needing to place your car somewhere safe, there are numerous benefits of storing your car in self-storage. Here are just a few:
Self-storage facilities typically have surveillance cameras and are very safe environments, making them a better option than parking on the street. Our particular self-storage facilities have 24 hour CCTV — so rest assured you are in good hands.
Storing your car in a self-storage unit protects it from harsh weather conditions like extreme heat, cold, rain, snow, or hail. Unfortunately, we know all too well here in the UK how rapid weather can change — no matter what month of the year, the weather always surprises us. In self-storage, you are totally protected.
By storing your car in a secure self-storage unit, you minimize the risk of theft or vandalism compared to parking on the street or in an unsecured garage. It’s the harsh truth, but thefts and break-ins do happen and can be devastating for car owners.
Families often own more than one car by now, leaving driveways cramped and uncomfortable. If you have limited garage space or no garage at all, storing your car in self-storage frees up space at your home, making it more comfortable to park your other vehicles or use your garage for other purposes.
Knowing that your car is stored in a secure and protected environment gives you total peace of mind, especially if you have a classic or expensive car. Using a self-storage unit for your car has many benefits, but in my opinion, nothing can beat this one.
Of course, street parking, car parks, and unsecured garages are all popular options for storing cars. But self-storage seems to have the upper-hand for a reason. It provides more security and protection from the elements than street parking; it's more cost-effective than renting a garage or a parking space; it gives you complete control over the storage environment, including temperature; and it allows you to access your car whenever you want, unlike public car parks that have limited hours of operation.
If you're planning to store your car in self-storage, here are some tips to keep in mind. It’s completely up to you how closely you adhere to them, depending on your car, your own desires, and the length of time your car is in storage.
If you own a classic car, you know that it requires extra care and attention to keep it in pristine condition. You may want to take some extra steps to look after your beloved, so here are some tips to consider when storing your classic car in self-storage:
