Car Storage -Dublin

    I have my car in storage abroad at the moment and will be bringing it over to Ireland shortly. It will get infrequent use (a few days every few weeks) again and I will need somewhere to store it.

    A car storage company near Baldonnel is full and I tried UStoreIt as well but their car-accessible units are massive and therefore expensive.

    There are plenty car storage specialists in the UK but I cant seem to find any more here in the Dublin area.
    Indoor is a must, security from theft and damage a must, weekend/easy access and electrical outlets (for battery upkeep only) an advantage but can do without if needed..

    Any suggestions anyone?

    Without starting a new thread.. I'll follow on from fluffers post.

    I'm looking for storage for a car for the winter - somewhere dry and secure.
    Where should I look?
    A domestic garage or lockup would be ideal

    I rented a lockup with power for 100 a month. Stored my personal belongings and my car there.
    Donnybrook area. Zero hassle, powered, relatively dry(not humidified) but secure. It has a powered door and decent surroundings.
    Try for the same. Only thing I could find that came close.

    Cheers fluffer... sounds ideal but 100 sheets a month is pretty steep.
    Where did you find it? daft or gumtree?

    I'd rather some place a bit further out of the city as I've a daily driver so getting to/from the storage wouldn't be a problem.

    There are all sorts of underground carparks available online. Most are in fairly dodgy spots though. I wouldnt park the car I have in many of them for a day, never mind for months at a time.

    I dont know what your budget is, but anything less than 80 is generally outdoor. Best to ask around workmates and friends. Barns, containers and even driveways with a cover are your likely options.
