What you get

A car kept indoors, out of sun and dust

We store cars indoors and under cover. Your car is out of direct sun, wind-blown sand and monsoon storms for as long as you are away from it.

Parking a car outside in the Coachella Valley for months is hard on it. Sun fades paint and cracks dashboards, rubber seals and wiper blades dry out, and blowing dust gets into everything. A carport or car cover helps, but neither keeps the heat and grit off the whole car.

Car storage is priced by quote. Tell us the vehicle and how long you expect to be away, and we give you a written price before you commit.

Car storage for Palm Springs, Palm Desert and Desert Hot Springs

We store cars for owners across the valley, Palm Springs, Palm Desert and Desert Hot Springs included. Most store for a season or longer: the car that stays behind for the summer, a second car with no room in the garage, or a classic kept out of the weather between drives.

Where you live changes the problem, not the answer. A condo carport in Palm Springs keeps off the midday sun but not the blowing sand. In Palm Desert the garage is often needed for something else, and the car ends up on the driveway. In Desert Hot Springs, the wind off the pass carries grit that pits paint and glass on anything parked outside. Indoor storage takes the car out of all three.

You are dealing with a family-owned company that has been part of the valley since 1987, and the price comes as a written quote before you commit.

Winter in the desert, car stored for the summer

Many part-time residents spend the cool months in the Coachella Valley and leave as the heat builds in late spring. Many keep a car here so they don't have to drive or ship one each way. The question is where that car spends the summer.

A closed-up garage in an empty house gets very hot, and a car parked outside a condo sits in full sun for months. Indoor storage takes the car out of both, and means nobody has to check on it while you are gone.

The reverse happens too. Some owners come to the desert for the winter and store the car they don't need here, or keep a classic indoors between the season's drives.

If you are also closing up the house, household storage can hold furniture in sealed wooden vaults.

Before you store

Getting a car ready for months in storage

Good practice for any car that will sit for a season. Ask us about anything on this list when you book.

  1. 01

    Check your insurance

    Ask your insurer how a stored car should be covered. Many owners keep comprehensive cover in force while the car isn't driven.

  2. 02

    Plan for the battery

    A battery left connected for months can go flat. Ask us how the battery will be handled before you book, so you know what to do before the car goes into storage.

  3. 03

    Clean it and note its condition

    Wash the car and clear out food and trash. Take dated photos and write down the mileage so you have your own record of how it went in.

Desert Moving Co. is lucky to have Tony, Luis,Willy and Jorge N. as valued employees . I was also lucky to have them help with our move. They introduced themselves upon entering my home and were very professional from beginning to end. I highly recommend these four gentlemen. They were quick, efficient and extremely careful with our furniture.

Where can I store my car near Palm Springs?

With us, indoors and under cover. We store cars for Palm Springs owners who are away for a season or longer and want the car out of the sun and dust, rather than in an open lot or a carport. Tell us the vehicle and how long you'll be away, and we'll send a written quote.

What is the best way to store a car for the summer in the desert?

Keep it indoors and out of direct sun. Months of Coachella Valley heat fade paint, crack dashboards and dry out rubber. Before storing, check your insurance, plan for the battery, clean the car, and note the mileage and condition so you have your own record.

Do you offer car storage in Palm Desert and Desert Hot Springs?

Yes. We store cars for owners in Palm Desert, Desert Hot Springs and across the Coachella Valley. Most keep a car with us for a season or longer, often the one left behind for the summer. Storage is indoors and under cover, and priced by written quote.

How much does car storage cost?

Car storage is priced by quote. The price depends on the vehicle and how long you plan to store it. Tell us both when you request a quote online or call, and we give you a written price before you commit to anything.

Can I store household furniture with you at the same time?

Yes. Many seasonal residents store both when they close up the house. Household goods go into sealed wooden vaults, packed and collected by our crew. Mention both when you ask for a quote and we'll arrange them on the same call.
