It's that time of year to start thinking about changing your tires for the upcoming season. Protecting your tires from the elements and storing them properly is very important. Since tires are bulky they can take up a lot of room in your garage or shed.
Using self storage for tire storage frees up valuable space in your garage, shed or home. Renting a storage unit gives you the extra space you need to store your seasonal tires as well as other seasonal items such as, patio furniture, lawn mowers, sports equipment, camping equipment etc.
Clean the tires using soap, water and a stiff brush to remove all dirt. Dirt and other debris on your tires can reduce the lifespan of your tires. It is very important to clean them before putting into storage.
Before putting your tires into storage you should give them a good inspection. Look for any major cracks or deterioration. Before putting your tires into storage make sure the tires are safe to be put back on the vehicle the following season.
Once the tires have been cleaned and inspected, place each tire in it's own air-tight plastic bag. Try and remove as much air as possible and seal the bag with tape.
