Climate Considerations

When considering outdoor car storage in Madison, Wisconsin, keep in mind the differences between seasons. During the summer months, the average high temperature is around 75 degrees Fahrenheit, while the average low in winter is around 16 degrees Fahrenheit. Different types of vehicles can benefit from outdoor storage, depending on the weather. For instance, classic cars can benefit from extra protection from the cold and moisture during winter. It is important to take special care when storing any vehicle outdoors, as extreme temperatures can lead to damage over time. Before parking a vehicle outdoors, take precautions like adding a car cover or investing in a quality wax coating to protect against sun and moisture damage. Additionally, be sure to check the area for debris or potential hazards that could damage the car in any way.

FAQs about outdoor car storage in Madison

On average a Neighbor outdoor car storage unit in Madison costs $75 per month.

15x15 spaces are the most frequently booked outdoor car storage type in Madison.

Motorcycles and other small vehicles generally require a 5x10 storage space while most cars and trucks will fit within a 10x20. For larger trailers, RVs, and other vehicles you will likely need to pull out the measuring tape as they can require anywhere from 10x40 to 20x60 spaces. Residential driveways offer a range of sizes and are typically affordable and convenient.

We recommend climate controlled storage for most electronics, collectibles, personal items (books, clothing, and photos), and sensitive materials (glass, leather, and metal).

If you live in a dry climate, climate control isn't as much of a concern, though you should still consider temperature's effect on your items.

If you expect freezing temperatures during the period that you plan to store your vehicle, you should definitely consider winterizing your vehicle before storing to prevent unecessary harm to your vehicle.
