Preservation of Motorcars

With the ever-adapting trading environment, in particular, the car industry companies may seek ways to reduce their overheads over the coming years.

  • Based up North and fancy an Automotive trade base down south without the added pressures of high rents, rates and additional staff salaries.
  • Have you undertaken a commercial contract but do not possess any Automotive knowledge?
  • No time or desire to call around or deal with small Business owners?

If you are a larger business, with busy schedules, fast paced, struggling to meet demand - Talk to us. We usually find a solution fairly quickly.

Fleet Storage:

There are 220+ immediate spaces available indoors, which excludes outdoor storage. A couple of facilities have availability and Insurance to store commercial vehicles, vans and HGVs. These are currently based in North London.

Indoor secure Fleet storage is available for classic and performance cars only in most regions of the UK.

*Areas not accurate to preserve location, security precaution*

Covering: Gloucestershire, Yorkshire, the Midlands, and Greater London areas.

When vehicles are dropped off, the drivers can be taken to the nearest train station. They can also be collected from there too.

2Why choose us?

As the Network of members possess years of Industry experience, they too have their own Network's. Therefore a car collection can be sold via the members with no advertisements, and completed quickly. Sometimes an owner may not have the time, nor wish to have their details listed on an advert providing additional privacy measures.

Send a list of vehicles available including spec and condition and leave us to contact each member. They may purchase all of them alleviating you of the time needed to auction or sell yourself privately. 

2Preparation & Maintenance:

We have witnessed and advised companies on the benefits of their own car servicing shop on-site. Thereby, a handful of car storage facilities not only conduct (should be conducting) warm-up, checking of tires, etc, as part of a maintenance plan, some also have onsite repair shops, usually a trusted third-party.

These are beneficial for a variety of reasons. As such, we can provide clients, depending on location, the ability for a one-stop shop, which is useful for certain situations. Of course, some clients wish to drive their car to their own garage for repairs and servicing.

Each unit (storage owner) possesses a slightly different Automotive background. Car sales, a couple began their careers in valeting, connections to motorsport, and others who began as mechanics, offering car repairs and servicing. We did come across a chap who was an engineer for Jaguar back in the 90's. He was the test driver for XJ220 and simply owned a family estate.

With onsite services, it means the preparation side can be conducted more efficiently, especially when using our services to monitor and manage proceedings. However not all of the companies have the space or permission to accommodate. 

2There are units available that can take in 52 cars immediately. Available in the Midlands, Gloucestershire, Yorkshire and Greater London areas. All are indoors, dry and secure. Some are temperature-controlled. A couple of places provide comprehensive Insurance coverage; however, it's always best to at least have third-party fire and theft cover with these fully Insured companies. Your Insurance company usually provide a discount on cover anyhow.

You request a copy of the Insurance when completing the paperwork online or in person. You will be asked to provide proof of ownership and a copy of your driving license when booking in. These will be required before issuing the Insurance copy. Ownership proof is also required for the normal check-in process to ensure stolen cars are not coming in.

For commercial companies, the same proof of ownership and Insurance proof is required when entering the facility as part of the check-in procedure.

Neither of these storage companies was a full member; therefore must pay a consultancy fee based on value.

Full members receive inclusive consultancy as part of the deal.

The consultancy, by the way, can propel an SME to the stage where the Business owner can sit back with less day-to-day running around. More efficient due to our ability to implement process. 

2As we reach the peak of classic car values some savvy collector's are selling to maximize their investments.

Calls are currently being received requesting a clear-out and auction of automotive assets. 

Store Classic Car Collection:

Rather than sending a collection straight to auction vehicles are instead sent to our Network of storage facilities: providing the family members much needed time to decide a better plan of action. As the vehicles take up so much room and in many cases can be quite valuable - they do cause up-set especially when deciding what to do with a property that requires clearing-out.

Dealership Car Storage:

With storage facilities in many areas of the UK, our Network has you covered. All indoor vehicle storage units can take in 10 cars immediately, with some having 52 spaces free. As of April 2023, there were 160 (March 2025, 360) immediate spaces available - these are all indoor and secure. The number of spaces goes up and down in fairness, and so do the locations available. 

We mainly focus on delivering cars to full-member clients. After this, we have a reserve list of storage places. We have done the calling around and already spoken to these. We aim to provide excellent service, but with a focus on value also. Some storage facilities are expensive, therefore not suitable as such for a commercial deal. There are a couple of well-known companies that do provide great personal service, are highly trusted, but the accountants won't be happy at paying £400 plus per month for indoor storage when a similar, less well-known place can be found for half this price.

We   

Dealership storage in the UK.

The people who run these units are experienced in the industry - all are established companies within the automotive storage industry. 

Most possess Niche's services - we have a database of who does what, many tried and tested. 

We've spent half a decade in the Industry as of 2025 and proud to advise that our knowledge of these niche services is strong. 

Vehicle Storage Operations:

As the Network of member's possess years of Industry experience they tend to have their own special Niche's. This allows them to ensure vehicles stored are preserved and prepared ready for sale, serviced, repaired or cleaned. A company such as a busy Solicitor who takes up our service can handle most processes remotely. No need to come to the unit each time.

Note: This service is available for all types or vehicles and business requirements, not just reserved for the classic and luxury car collection market.

Note: Units do not allow people to walk around. They all have special entrance requirements for security and insurance reasons.
