Dandy Dave Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 What is the average inside storage fee on one antique automobile. I remember years ago it was 1 dollar a day which would be around 30 per month. I have a car that I have stored for someone for 10 years. Just wondering what the storage value would add up to. Thanks Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stock_steve Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Around my neck of the woods, I'd say the average must be somewhere around $100/month... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 53Nailhead Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I used to pay $170 from Nov. 1 to April 15. Some of the other Buick guys are paying up to $400 for heated storage........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Joe G Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 For in-town, easy access, heated/secure storage we charge $10 per foot per month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Dave,I would think barn/shed type storage would be at least $50. month. At $500 year x 10 years, I think many unrestored cars would be below the value of storage. But you are a nice guy, so it is hard to say what the time should be worth. I would ask what does the owner think it would be worth now sitting outside for 10 years.Good luck. Does the owner still want the car? Is it a Buick?John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Around Philadelphia they advertise private garage bays at $75-150 per month on craigslist.I have a friend who pays $240 at a dedicated car-only facility whichI would hate to have to pay.Wait till he hears he would pay $2000 for a 10x20 in Minnesota.

Guest Joe G Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 ....Wait till he hears he would pay $2000 for a 10x20 in Minnesota.I'm talking $10 per linear foot, not square foot....20' car = $200/mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ken bogren Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I pay 150.00 per month, cold storage, unlimited access, for a 11x33 (holds both my 63 Falcon and my 61 F100) enclosed bay with it's own garage door at a self storage facility. About 20 miles from downtown Mpls, MN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlier Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Here where I live a 10'x20' Car Storage space is $106/month and 10'x30' is $138/month. That is for inside storage that is not climate controlled.The biggest challenge is finding Car Storage in my area is finding a facility that will agree to store a vehicle. Many facilities are finding it very difficult to find insurance companies that will insure tha facility if a car is stored in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studemax Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 10 X 20 unheated - $129 per month.Only a mile from my house, so it's convenient to say the least.Store some parts and yard sale items there, too - to free up the garage at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbirchmire Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I own a self-storage facility in Pennsville N.J. and we charge $ 140.00 a month for a 10x20 unit that is unheated. Outside vehicle storage is $50.00 a month which is secured by a locked gate.Dave Birchmire, Sr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 My apologies to Joe G. I was thinking in real estate terms where space is rented by the square foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Dave Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 Thanks fellows. Gives me something to think about. I think the storage fee would have by-passed the value of the vehicle by now. Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted sweet Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 wish i could even find such storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padgett Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I try to limit my cars to what will fit in the garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skyking Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I try to limit my cars to what will fit in the garage.Exactly......... I used to rent garages years ago @$50.00 a month and thought that was too much. In fact, when I built my house I had more garage space than cars. That changed in a hurry!

Guest prof pat Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Dave, it depends greatly on if it is heated or not. I have two new fully insulated 5000 sf each industrial buildings that I LEASE for 25 cents per square foot per month. I am up in snow country, and finding space is hard to find. I do not care how many autos, boats, etc. they store, but no working on anything. So some of the guys and girls get together to lease to store thier toys.

Jim Bollman Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I try to keep within what will fit in my building but there is an occasional problem with timing. I ended up renting a bay in a private garage this Winter when one truck didn't sell fast enough to make room for the new one. I paid $200 for the Winter for clean dry storage. I sold the truck a couple of weeks after moving it in, but throwing in storage for the Winter clinched the deal since the fellow that bought it was having the same timing problem and was a bay short.I do rent a spot under cover but open on one side for my car trailer (flat bed) with my truck camper on the back for the Winter for another $200 from right ater Hershey till April/May. Could leave them outside but seems cheap to keep them a little dryer. Plan to build a car port for them eventually, been telling myself that now for 4 years.

Bill Boudway Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hi,I pay $200.00 for the season, October through May for secure, unheated storage south of Oak's Corners. Steve Austin was charging $100.00/month for dead, heated storage in Palmyra in the old Bassage Ford garage.If the person hasn't paid up, I would get busy and find legal help to put a lien on the vehicle, assuming it has any value.Bill Boudway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer09 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I rent a 2 car garage with loft in a very nice neighborhood in south Jersey. The rent has been 150. mo. for the last 5 years. Believe that to be very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
