But before you bring your car over, you’ll need to get it ready.

3 Tasks to Prepare for Automobile Storage

1. Remove Your Belongings

The automobile storage area at American Self Storage is protected with security cameras, but it’s important to remove all valuables from the vehicle. Take out your removable sound system and check under the seats for things you want to take home.

2. Clean Inside & Out

3. Buy a Car Cover

Automobile storage will protect your vehicle from weather and other outside elements, but a car cover will help preserve its shine. Purchase a quality cover specifically manufactured for your car’s model. It should fit snugly around the frame but still be easy to put on and remove.

The most important step in preparing your car or truck for automobile storage is choosing the right temporary storage facility.
