Whether you’re going overseas, between vehicles, or simply need space for your collection, choosing the right vehicle storage provider is crucial. Long-term storage protects your investment from damage, theft, and environmental wear — but not all facilities are created equal.
OTS Group offers secure, climate-stable Vehicle Storage across New Zealand, combining 24/7 monitored facilities with professional vehicle handling and transport support.
1. Security Comes First
Security should always be your top priority when selecting a storage facility. Look for locations that offer:
- 24-hour monitored CCTV systems
- Controlled site access and alarmed entry points
- Secure fencing and lighting for exterior areas
- Onsite personnel or patrols for additional oversight
At OTS Group, every storage site is fully monitored and equipped with security-grade fencing, cameras, and access control systems.
2. Indoor vs Outdoor Vehicle Storage
Indoor storage protects vehicles from sun, rain, and temperature fluctuations — ideal for long-term preservation or valuable cars. Outdoor options are suitable for short-term or larger vehicles like motorhomes, trucks, or machinery.
We offer both solutions depending on your needs and the type of vehicle being stored.
3. Climate and Environmental Protection
Moisture, temperature changes, and UV exposure can all affect your vehicle’s condition over time. Enclosed or temperature-controlled storage keeps interiors dry, prevents rust, and protects paint and rubber components.
For sensitive or collector vehicles, we recommend covered indoor spaces with controlled airflow to prevent condensation.
4. Accessibility and Location
Consider how often you’ll need to access your vehicle. Some facilities provide 24/7 access, while others operate by appointment for added security. OTS Group offers convenient access scheduling, ensuring your vehicle is ready whenever you are.
With depots in Auckland and Christchurch, our facilities are strategically located for easy pick-up and delivery across both islands.
5. Integrated Transport & Delivery Options
Unlike typical storage providers, OTS Group also manages intercity and long-distance vehicle transport. This means we can pick up your car, store it securely, and deliver it back when you’re ready — all through one team.
It’s a streamlined, end-to-end service ideal for seasonal storage or fleet management.
6. Preparing a Vehicle for Long-Term Storage
Before storage, take these steps to keep your vehicle in the best condition:
- Clean and wax the exterior to prevent corrosion.
- Inflate tyres to correct pressure and avoid flat spots.
- Disconnect the battery or connect a trickle charger.
- Fill the fuel tank and add stabiliser to prevent condensation.
- Cover the vehicle with a breathable car cover.
Summary — Professional Storage You Can Trust
Whether you’re storing a single vehicle or managing a business fleet, professional facilities make all the difference. With secure, climate-protected depots and integrated transport solutions, OTS Group makes vehicle storage simple, safe, and stress-free.
