How Long Can You Keep a Car in Storage?

Cars can sit in storage for an indefinite amount of time with proper preparation and routine maintenance. Keep in mind that following the right car storage prep tips before long-term storage is essential to preventing dead batteries, flat spots on tires, degraded fuel, rust and corrosion, and other issues. For added protection, consider climate-controlled storage and check on your car regularly—and if possible, start and drive your car every two weeks for about 15 minutes to keep it running smoothly.
