It depends on your vehicle and budget. Indoor storage protects against weather, UV, and theft but costs more. Outdoor lots work for durable vehicles in mild conditions. In Iowa, consider local weather patterns when deciding.
Most facilities require proof of insurance, but policies vary. Some facilities offer add-on insurance. Your existing vehicle insurance may or may not cover stored vehicles. Check with your insurer and the facility before signing a contract.
