4 Vehicle Storage Amenities Worth Paying For

When you put your vehicle into long-term storage at a special vehicle storage facility, you can pay for more than the space your vehicle occupies. You can also pay for amenities that are designed to help protect your vehicle while it is in storage. Here are some amenities to consider. 

#1: Car Cover

If you don't have a car cover, your vehicle warehouse where you are storing your car may have car covers for sale. Car covers help keep your vehicle dust from building up on your vehicle and can help protect the paint job while your vehicle is in storage. Car covers can also help keep little pests from accessing your vehicle.

#2: Tire Pressure Checks

Your tire pressure changes regardless of if you drive your car or not. Outside air temperatures can cause the tire in your air pressure to increase and decrease. Many vehicle store facilities will check your tire pressure every month and adjust the air pressure to get it just right. Having the right tire pressure will help protect the tires on your vehicle.

#3: Move Your Vehicle

Third, you can pay the storage facility to move your vehicle. Moving your vehicle will help to eliminate flat spots on your tires. If your vehicle doesn't move, the tires will eventually develop flat spots, and you will need to change the tires before you can drive your vehicle again. By paying the storage facility to move your vehicle, you can save the tires on your vehicle for getting damaged.

Moving your vehicle will also help to keep the compressor, fans, and valves inside of your vehicle working properly. By running your vehicle at least once a month, your vehicle will stay in better shape.

#4: Take Care of the Battery

Fourth, you can let the storage facility take care of the battery. The battery will drain down if you just let it sit there. The vehicle storage facility can attach your battery to a trickle charger, which will allow your battery to keep your charge. Your battery needs to be charged and recharged regularly in order not to die completely.

#5: Wash Vehicle

Finally, many vehicle storage facilities will wash your vehicle at least once a month. Washing your vehicle once a month will help protect the paint job and keep your vehicle from getting dusty.

When it comes to putting your vehicle into long-term storage, you can pay for additional amenities that will enable you to keep your car in better condition. Contact a vehicle storage facility to see what type of amenities and packages they offer.
