After using Storacar on three or four occasions now I thought it was worth writing a quick Storacar review about them and their services.
Storacar, the distinguished specialist car storage company based in the United Kingdom, are more than just a garage for vehicles; it’s a sanctuary for automotive treasures. This review will take you on a short journey into the world of Storacar, under the stewardship of owner Allan Cowen and manager Steve Mason, where passion for cars meets the art of storage.

How much does Storacar cost?
Now most car storage isn’t cheap, but Storacar reflects the broad average for car storage costs here in the UK.
As of writing this in 2023, Storacars ‘Basic Storage’ package costs from £145 per month – a minimum term of three months is needed. This gets you safe and secure, indoor, dry vehicle storage at their discreet location which is 40 miles outside of London. You can drop the car off or they’ll come and collect it.
To add their ‘Active Storage’ programme which takes extra care of your car the price is £197 a month. For this they’ll actively take care of the vehicle by checking the tyre and battery condition as well as running the engine up to working temperature every 30 days.
You can also opt for ‘Dehumidified Car Storage’ for the same price – £197 a month, or just over £45 a week. It helps prevent dampness to bodywork, interior and mechanical components without drying out leather interiors and rubber hoses.
And the full works ‘Dehumidified Car Storage Plus Active Storage’ which combines the two elements for ultimate vehicle protection while in storage. This costs £249 per month.
Please check their current pricing here though, as it may well change over time.
