Default Storage Options & cost?

Anyone know of good Pcar storage options west of Boston? I seem to have accumulated too many cars and need someplace to store a few of them. Also what is the going rate these days for monthly car storage?

(tried this same thread in the GT4 forums but with
limited tractions so trying here too)

Secure facility storage prices vary a lot depending on location. Here around LA I’ve seen prices $500-1000/month, but my sister in Utah pays $2000/year.

Is a 4 post lift an option?

I stack 2 cars in a 3 car garage (so can park 4 vehicles).

The 2 options I go with are the 911+RX-7 or RX-7 and E63. The 911 and E63 I have not tried as they are 2 that I drive the most. But I suspect I could stack the 911 and E63.

Already have an auto stacker for one bay and the other has a 2 post asymmetric. Then there are 2 bays for the DDs and the ceiling is only 7 ft tall there so no option for stacking.. Problem is there are 11 cars for theses 5 spots…

This is along the lines of “what does a house cost?”

Truth be told, much like a house, it’s location location, location. From experience, even driving 15-20 minutes to a facility can start feeling like a nuisance.

Depending upon where you live, you might find someone willing to rent their garage out. There’s something to be said for walking distance.

Another option in the Boston area is to contact Bond Group in Waltham. Speak with Pat Roussel. Pat and his business partner were the owners of the Aston Martin franchise in the Boston area until they sold it a few years back (pre-Covid) to the owner of Cadillac of Norwood. Contact info is here

They still maintain the old Aston Martin dealership facility in Waltham and manage consignment sales and exotic vehicle storage (including battery tenders, overinflation of tires, basic maintenance services if you want, etc.).
I don’t recall the prices from when I last spoke with Pat, but I recall them being reasonable, particularly for the services and quality of the storage area. They also had some seriously nice vehicles there.
