Preparing your vehicle for short-term storage in a storage unit is essential to ensure it remains in good condition and is ready for use when you retrieve it. Start by thoroughly cleaning both the interior and exterior of the vehicle. Remove any food, trash, or personal items from inside, as they can attract pests. Consider using a car cover to protect the exterior from dust and debris. Next, change the oil and filter to prevent contaminants from sitting in the engine. It’s also a good idea to fill up the gas tank and add a fuel stabilizer to prevent the fuel from deteriorating. Check the tire pressure and inflate them to the recommended levels, as under-inflated tires can develop flat spots over time. To prevent the battery from draining, you can either disconnect it or use a battery maintainer. If your storage unit has electricity, a battery maintainer is an excellent choice as it will keep the battery charged without overcharging it. Lastly, consider placing moisture-absorbing products like desiccant bags or moisture-absorbing buckets inside the vehicle to prevent mould or mildew growth. Ensure the handbrake is disengaged, and the vehicle is in gear (for manual transmissions) or “Park” (for automatics).
