Security Features for Vehicle Storage

At City Storage, we take the security of your recreational vehicles, boats, and automobiles seriously. Our commitment to safeguarding your property is reflected in our comprehensive security measures that ensure your peace of mind while your vehicles are parked in our uncovered storage spaces. Here’s how we protect your investment:

Security Cameras: Your prized vehicles are monitored around the clock with our state-of-the-art security system. Strategically placed cameras capture activity throughout the facility, providing a watchful eye and a record of the premises day and night.
Gated and Fenced-In Facility: Our perimeter is surrounded by robust fencing, establishing a formidable barrier against unauthorized access. Entry and exit are controlled through a secure gate, ensuring that only permitted individuals can access the area where your vehicles are stored.
Keypad Access at Entryways: We employ advanced keypad access systems at all entry points. This technology allows for secure entry, restricting access to the storage area to authorized users only.
Manager On-Site During Business Hours: To offer additional security and provide immediate assistance, a knowledgeable manager is present on-site during business hours. Their presence ensures that operations run smoothly and that any concerns regarding the storage of your vehicle can be promptly addressed.

Understanding the Importance of Specialized Vehicle Storage

For many vehicle owners, finding the right storage solution is essential, not just for convenience, but also for preservation and security. At City Storage, our specialized vehicle storage provides numerous benefits that go beyond mere parking space. Here’s why our dedicated storage is crucial for your RV, boat, or vehicle:

Protection from the Elements

Vehicles left exposed to the harsh Idaho Falls weather can suffer from wear and tear. Uncovered parking doesn’t mean unprotected; our strategically designed lots minimize exposure to wind, precipitation, and sun, shielding your vehicle from the elements and extending its lifespan.

Avoidance of Damage

When not in use, vehicles parked on the street or in a driveway are more susceptible to accidental damage or vandalism. Our storage facility provides a secure environment away from these risks, ensuring your vehicle remains in the condition you left it.

Compliance with Regulations

Many neighborhoods have strict regulations, including homeowners’ associations (HOAs) that may limit the ability to park large vehicles or boats. Using our storage facility ensures you comply with these rules, avoiding fines and keeping your community spaces uncluttered.

Preservation of Value

The condition of your vehicle has a direct impact on its value. By storing your RV, boat, or vehicle in a facility designed to protect and preserve, you are taking steps to maintain its value over time.

Convenience and Accessibility

City Storage offers ease of access to your stored vehicles whenever you need them. This convenience is paired with the peace of mind that comes from knowing your vehicle is stored safely and is ready to go when you are.

Preparing Your RV, Boat, or Vehicle for Storage

Securing a spot at City Storage for your RV, boat, or vehicle is the first step in protection and preservation. To enhance this protection, proper preparation before storage is key. Here are essential tips to ensure your vehicle remains in top condition while stored at our facility:

For All Vehicles

Clean Thoroughly: Wash the exterior to prevent rust and decay, and clean the interior to avoid attracting pests.
Maintenance Check: Perform routine maintenance such as oil changes and fluid checks to avoid mechanical issues.
Battery Care: Disconnect the battery to prevent drain, or consider a trickle charger for longer storage periods.
Tire Care: Inflate tires to the recommended pressure to prevent flat spots or consider using tire stops if storing for an extended time.
Seal Openings: Close all windows and seal gaps to keep out rodents and insects.
Fluids: Top off or change fluids such as antifreeze to ensure they’re at the correct levels for when you next start the vehicle.

Tips for Prepping Your RV for Storage

Water Systems: Drain water tanks and water lines to prevent freezing and bacterial growth.
Appliances and Propane: Turn off and secure propane tanks, and ensure all appliances are switched off.
Ventilation: Leave vents slightly open to allow air circulation and prevent mold and mildew, using vent covers to keep pests out.

Tips for Prepping Your Boat for Storage

Dry Out: Ensure the boat is completely dry inside and out to prevent mold, mildew, and freezing damage.
Engine Care: Flush the engine, add fuel stabilizer, and disconnect fuel lines.
Cover: Use a breathable cover to protect against dust and moisture while allowing condensation to escape.
