Sanford, ME, Car Storage Tips

Preparing it for storage looks different from parking it in your garage if you plan to tuck your car away for the winter or during a military deployment. We recommend a few tips to set yourself up for success and prevent any potential issues when it’s time to roll out your ride:

• Wash your car. Prolonged exposure to sand and dust can scratch up your paint and damage the clear coat.
• Clean your car’s interior. Clean looks different for everyone, but at least clean out any old cups, food bags, and anything that may make your car smell funky if left there too long
• Fill your gas tank. A completely or partially empty gas tank leaves space for condensation to build and cause rust.
• Check your fluid levels. Before storing your vehicle, take a look yourself or have a professional vet your antifreeze/coolant, windshield wiper fluid, and more, and top off any that are low.
• Take care of critical maintenance. Whether you’re a homegrown mechanic or prefer the auto shop, check out your car and perform any ” must-do” maintenance, like an oil change.

Four-Wheeler Storage in Sanford, ME

Between off-roading treks, give your four-wheeler a home away from home with us—and remember a few important storage tips. Your four-wheeler’s exposed to a lot of dirt and grime, and as fun as it is to zoom through the mud, you don’t want to leave it caked on for too long, especially in storage.

Use a hose to presoak your four-wheeler and gently chip off any softened mud with a plastic scraper. Next, apply a mild detergent or a four-wheeler-specific cleaner to a wash mitt and scrub the entire vehicle down to the wheels and handlebars! Once you’ve rinsed off the cleaner and any lingering dirt or mud, let your four-wheeler dry off in the sun. Other tips for storing your four-wheeler in Sanford include:

• Applying a thin layer of oil to prevent rust
• Cover your exhaust pipe with plastic to keep out moisture
• Empty your fuel tank—you can run the engine to burn out any remaining fuel
