LoL, don't take offense. Thats just the sort of responses some of the regulars around here like to throw down.

You do raise a good point though. I do recall some places being real picky about that kind of stuff. I stored various engine parts for a while and remember getting a ton of grief for it. I am thinking that I may keep my garage stuff here at the house and work on the bike in the driveway and then take it back when I am done.

In this neck of the country, you can rent a 15 ft cargo container and put it in the back of your driveway for 50 bucks a month....sort like a porta-garage. They are 1/8 in steel with double steel doors and lockable latches....might be a better bet than either a garage or storage. I've been thinking about doing one and then covering it with sheet siding to make it look pretty.......

That's true. I had a container from PODS. I don't recall how much it was but if I remember correctly they didn't really seem to care if they picked it up or not. You might be able to just rent one and have it sit in the driveway or your backyard and then park in it and lock it up.

another company to look into is called Mobile MIni;'s similar to pods. I had one at my house for awhile before a move, talking like 6 months. They are long term also.

Awesome ideas guys. Thanks a ton. I have too much football to watch this weekend, so I will probably look into everything on Monday. Including various walk around at some local storage units.
