Shopping For the Best Car Storage Rates

Storing a car can be a bit of a hassle. After all, most private homes only have a two car garage, and many a homeowners’ association is now frowning upon cars left at the curb or even in the driveway. Even those neighborhoods where homeowners still have the freedom to park a third of fourth car on the streets, the fact that you will need to be ever vigilant to move it on street sweeping day makes it more of a hassle than a joy.

Add to this dilemma the fact that most cars come with various accoutrements which also need storing, and you can quickly see why so many car aficionados are looking to self storage facilities for their car storage needs. Several of these businesses offer storage units the size of a one car garage or even larger, and you will be able to store you extra car, any spare parts you may have, and even some totes of other items that go along with the vehicle.

Yet shopping for the best car storage rates requires you to play close attention to the wordings of the fact sheets, advertisements, and contracts, so that you can truly compare the services side by side, rather than being swayed by a low quote which may actually cover less in the way of services than the slightly higher quote from a competing self storage facility. Find out if the bottom line quote includes any surveillance surcharges, if there are special fees for accessing your vehicle after hours, if there is a lock fee, or if a host of other surcharges or fees apply which may not be mentioned at the onset.
