Frequently Asked Questions About Vehicle Storage
-
What size storage unit do I need for my car collection?
The ideal size depends on the number and size of vehicles you wish to store, along with any additional space needed for maintenance activities or accessories. As a general guideline, most standard cars require at least 200 square feet of space, plus additional room for walking around the vehicle and any workspace. Our units start at 896 square feet, providing ample room for multiple vehicles.
- Can I work on my vehicle in my storage unit?
Absolutely! Many of our tenants enjoy working on their vehicles in their personal garage units. The spacious dimensions, high ceilings, and electrical service make Jumbo Storage units perfect for maintenance and restoration projects. You may not work on your vehicles in the common areas, however, as these must be kept clean and accessible for all tenants.
-
Is it safe to store a vehicle long-term in your units?
Yes, our units are well-suited for long-term vehicle storage. The insulated construction helps moderate temperature extremes, while the secure facility provides peace of mind. For optimal long-term storage, we recommend using battery maintenance devices, placing vehicles on jack stands to prevent flat-spotting tires, and performing proper fluid maintenance before storage. The 30/50 amp electrical service in each unit allows for battery tenders and other preservation equipment.
-
Can I store car parts and tools along with my vehicles?
Definitely. Many of our tenants use their units not only for vehicle storage but also as a complete automotive workshop. The generous square footage provides ample space for parts storage, tool chests, workbenches, and other equipment. You're free to customize your space to suit your specific needs.
-
Do you offer climate-controlled storage for vehicles?
While our units are not actively climate-controlled by default, they feature well-insulated walls and doors that help moderate temperature extremes. The 30/50 amp electrical service allows tenants to install their own heating or cooling solutions if desired for particularly sensitive vehicles. This flexibility lets you create the optimal environment for your specific collection.
-
Can I store a car lift in my unit?
Yes! The 19' ceiling heights in our units specifically accommodate car lifts, allowing you to maximize your storage space or facilitate maintenance work. Many of our vehicle enthusiast tenants install lifts to double their storage capacity or create an ideal working environment.
-
May I operate a business from my storage unit?
The City of Asheville has imposed restrictions on the use of Jumbo Storage. While you can store vehicles and work on them personally, regulations prohibit actually operating a business on the property. This means you cannot run a commercial auto repair shop or similar business from your unit.
-
How accessible is my vehicle storage unit?
You'll have 24/7/365 access to your unit, allowing you to come and go as you please. This is especially convenient for enthusiasts who may want to take a vehicle out for an early morning drive or attend evening events. Your vehicles are always available to you, regardless of the time or day.
