Whether you own an RV you use seasonally, a boat that needs a winter home, a classic car you want to protect, or simply an extra vehicle that does not fit in your garage, finding reliable vehicle storage is an important decision. Forward Storage offers vehicle storage options at multiple locations with the flexibility and security every vehicle owner needs.

Types of Vehicle Storage Available

Vehicle storage typically comes in three varieties: uncovered outdoor parking, covered carport-style spaces, and enclosed garage-style units. Outdoor parking is the most affordable option and works well for durable vehicles that do not require complete weather protection. Covered spaces offer protection from sun and rain. Enclosed units provide maximum security and climate protection, ideal for classic cars, motorcycles, and high-value vehicles.

Preparing Your Vehicle for Storage

Before placing your vehicle in storage, fill the gas tank and add a fuel stabilizer to prevent ethanol separation. Change the oil to remove contaminants that can damage engine components over time. Clean the interior and exterior to prevent rust and odors. Inflate tires to the recommended pressure and consider tire cradles to prevent flat spots during long-term storage. Disconnect the battery or use a trickle charger to maintain charge.

RV-Specific Storage Tips

For RVs and motorhomes, drain all water lines before storage to prevent freeze damage in colder months and mold growth year-round. Remove all food items. Use breathable RV covers when storing in uncovered or covered spaces. Run the engine monthly if possible to keep mechanical components lubricated.
