Storage Tips for Plum Vehicle Owners

Photograph Everything

Take detailed photos of your vehicle before storage, including any existing damage. This protects you in case of a dispute about the condition upon retrieval.

Use a Battery Tender

For any storage period longer than 2 weeks, use a battery tender or maintainer. Dead batteries can cause computer resets, alarm issues, and expensive replacements.

Fill Your Fuel Tank
