Self Storage Tips for Motorcycles, Jet Skis and ATVs

Your toys cost you a lot of money and need protected storage when not in use.  Small self storage lockers are ideal to securely, privately and inexpensively store your Jet Skis, ATVs, Snowmobiles and Motorcycles. We have researched some of the best tips to prepare the vehicles for storage.

• Before reserving a unit, ask or measure the doors to make sure your toys will fit through.
• Bring proof of registration & insurance as this is generally required by storage facilities
• Clean your vehicle before hand to protect the parts. Consider using dust covers to reduce the dust and any condensation dripping.
• Remove the battery. Purchase a battery “trickle” charger to keep your battery charged at home while your vehicle is in storage. This also reduces the risk of theft.
• Fill up the tires to their highest level.
• Make the necessary repairs or maintenance before storing your vehicle.
• To prevent leaks and fire hazards, drain most of the fuel tank and pour in some fuel stabilizer which is terrific protection during cold winters.
• Place cardboard or mats on the unit’s floor so it does not get damaged.

These simple steps will keep up your vehicle’s performance and protect its value.
