  • Trucks & SUVs: 10×25 or larger accommodates larger vehicles with door clearance

  • Motorcycles: 5×10 or shared 10×10 spaces work perfectly

  • Small Boats (16-20 ft): 10×20 to 10×25 with trailer clearance

  • Large Boats (20-30 ft): 10×30 or larger, depending on beam width

  • RVs & Motorhomes: 10×30 to 14×45 depending on class and length

Pro Tip: Always measure your vehicle's total length, including hitches, mirrors, and any accessories, before selecting storage facility parking spaces.

Preparing Your Vehicle for Storage

Follow these quick steps to prepare your vehicle for storage, so your ride is ready to go whenever you are.

Preparation Step

Why It Matters

Change fluids

Fresh oil prevents corrosion; a full gas tank with stabilizer prevents condensation

Clean thoroughly

Remove food and debris that attract pests; it prevents mold in enclosed spaces

Check tire pressure

Maintain proper PSI or use jack stands to prevent flat spots

Disconnect battery

Prevents drainage; store separately or use a trickle charger in the garage rental space with electricity

Use a cover

Protects paint and interior from dust, sun, and moisture

Add pest deterrents

Seal openings; place dryer sheets to deter rodents
