Secure van storage
Permalink  

Is there anyone out there who has the same problem as I do? (now let's not get too nasty!). I have a great house (home) in a nice area (North Lakes, Qld) which is about as van unfriendly as you can get. The old Avan Rhys H/T was bad enough, but the new van is even bigger! I have no back yard access, and it is against council bylaws to park it in front of the house if it can be seen from the street (a good friend around the corner just got busted and has decided to sell and move out to the country). I have heard rumors of storage facilities, but can't find them. Any ideas?

Hi, Guys!
I have been Googling my heart out with no real results, and I have less space out back than in front! I guess I could tunnel under the driveway! Hang on, I'll go get my shovel....
Trust me, I have considered every option - except for total demolition - and there is just no way I can store it here.

I googled "caravan storage northside Brisbane". Every one of them came up "secure rv storage"

some even offering insurance , I asked for a quote on my size van , with insurance.

Site acknowledged it received & will answer during bus hrs. That was National Storage , but

there others Northside as well.

Hi, Jack! Amazing. I Googled 'caravan storage brisbane northside' and the search results are totally different?????? I discounted the large national storage chains as far too expensive. But I now have a lead to a specialized facility and I am following that up. I'll let you know what I find.

When we were in Newcastle they had a buy sell and swap on a radio station so we had a van that we wanted out of our front yard and local storage was way too expensive. So I put up that we would like someone who had a garage we could rent out for van.
Same day get a call people about 30 min away offered their garage for free, Wow we offered money and they accepted and it was kept their for 2 years with no issues. Just a thought.
