When your journey requires leaving your car behind, it's crucial to store it properly. At Ez Rent A Space, a trusted self storage facility, we offer valuable tips to maintain your vehicle's condition during extended storage periods. For an in-depth guide, check out our resources on long-term car storage preparation.
Choosing an appropriate spot at our storage facility is more than just finding an empty space. Consider these tips for effective long-term parking: opt for a flat surface to prevent fluid leaks, use a ground sheet for moisture protection, avoid engaging the parking brake, and park in reverse for easy battery access.
For prolonged storage, using tire jacks or stands at our storage units is crucial to prevent flat spots. Overinflate your tires slightly, without exceeding the max pressure, to account for gradual pressure loss over time.
Choosing the right fuel is essential. Opt for high-quality, ethanol-free gas and consider a full tank to keep seals intact. A fuel stabilizer can also prevent fuel degradation, which is essential in a self storage facility setting.
To avoid a dead battery, unplug it or use a battery maintainer if your car requires continuous power. This approach, particularly in a storage facility, ensures your battery remains charged without overcharging risks.
Before storing your car at Ez Rent A Space, ensure all legal requirements like insurance and registration are up-to-date. This simple step is crucial for avoiding legal issues at our storage units.
Your stationary vehicle might attract pests. Secure windows and vents and use deterrents to prevent damage at our self storage facility.
Cleaning and waxing your car before storage protects its paint and adds a moisture-resistant layer. Remember to clean the interior as well to avoid unpleasant surprises upon your return to our storage facility.
While covering your car is essential, ensure adequate ventilation to prevent odors and mildew. Choose a cover that’s suitable for indoor or outdoor conditions at Ez Rent A Space, allowing moisture to escape.
Choosing the appropriate storage option is key for your car’s long-term preservation. At Ez Rent A Space, we offer various storage units tailored to your vehicle’s needs. Our indoor, outdoor, and covered car storage solutions provide protection and flexibility, featuring secure, easy-access facilities.
