Car Storage FAQs

We’re serious about taking good care of your car.  In addition to our premises being purpose built and completely flood-free, our whole complex is secured by round-the-clock motion detection CCTV, three metre high outer perimeter security fence and vigilant onsite management. Plus, our internal secure storage areas feature second level raised storage platforms lifted four metres up via our heavy-duty hydraulic ram vehicle lifts and the whole lot is enclosed behind electronically locked roller doors.

Our customers are given a unique PIN Code that allows entry and exit through the electronic security gate at any time of the day or night and our all-concrete hardstand holding yard is designed to facilitate easy access without risky manoeuvring in tight spaces.

Combine all this with our experienced and dedicated staff who’ll take care of your car as if it was their own, and you can rest assured that your car is as safe as safe can be.

This is an important question with no definitive right or wrong answer.  Please check your owner’s manual to see if your vehicle requires constant power during storage.  Some late model cars require a fully charged battery connected at all times.

  • Continuous trickle charging battery maintenance.

Yes, if you are storing for a long time, then you should over-inflate your tyre pressure. This helps prevent flat spots forming on your tyres. Increase the air pressure 2-3 psi more than the tyre manufacturer recommends. Don’t forget to re-check the air pressure when you take your car out of storage.

If your car is being stored for less than 6 months it’s not necessary to start your vehicle. Starting your vehicle for a short period of time without fully heating up the motor and exhaust system not only increases wear and tear, it will produce condensation in your exhaust system.

If you are storing your vehicle for over 6 months, then it’s a good idea to add fuel stabiliser. If you are storing for less than 6 months, it isn’t necessary but it won’t do any damage.
