An appreciation for sports and for the great outdoors is common among residents of Texas. All terrain vehicles (ATVs) provide a fun and exhilarating way to enjoy both, whether you ride individually or as part of a group. At US Storage Centers, our Pasadena storage units provide the perfect solution for how to store these vehicles when they are not in use. Keeping them at home takes up valuable space in your garage while leaving them outside allows them to be exposed to the elements and increases the risk of theft. We offer a clean, protected facility with covered outdoor spaces or indoor units, both easily accessible to you as needed. Furthermore, taking some preventative steps when storing your ATV can ensure that it will be ready for your next adventure. Preparing Your ATV for Storage ATVs come in a range of sizes, styles, and price ranges to choose from. Even basic models are a significant investment, and it is important to take the steps needed to keep your vehicle secure. Our Pasadena storage units provide the perfect solution when space or security for your ATV is an issue at home. Our electronic, gated facility and 24/7 video security provide peace of mind, while covered or indoor spaces offer protection from the elements. Prior to placing your ATV in one of our Pasadena storage units and before heading out for your next trip, it is important to take a few preventative maintenance measures. Game and Fish Magazine recommends the following, which can help extend the life of your ATV: Take the time to break in your ATV. If you purchased it new, allow some running and driving time for the fluids to circulate and heat engine parts before immediately doing doughnuts or running it on rough terrain. Check your oil regularly. Making sure you have a clear, clean supply of oil helps your ATV to run more efficiently, avoiding undue wear and tear. Change the oil regularly, and if you bought yours used, checking levels frequently can alert you to any leaks. Make sure the air filter is clean. It is a small, inexpensive part that could make a huge difference in vehicle performance. Check all your belts and hoses. Familiarize yourself with the inner workings of your ATV, which will help ensure you spot problems before they become a major issue. Keep your ATV clean. Wash your ATV before returning it to your Pasadena storage unit to prevent dirt or mud from caking. This will keep it looking good and running better.
