I Need Temp Car Storage
#1
slowly being pushed into a bind.

my lease is up at the end of this month, and with it, my parking for the Jeep.

I leased in Oshawa but I'm moving back to my parents for a few months this summer before I then re-move out permanently to school.

It's unsure what school I'm goign to next year and I can't stay where I am without renewing for a year... so that's out of the question.

Problem: They don't even have enough parking for my focus, let alone 1 Jeep + 1 Jeep tub.

I really want to avoid paying 200$/month at uhaul or some random place for a 10x20ft garage but I'm slowly going to have no choice at this rate.

Can anyone suggest any alternatives? I need approx 2 parking spots worth of space, and that's only until I can get my old tub off (need help with it, can't do it alone) and then it's replacement goes on... from then I only need 1 spot.

I'm looking at every option I have but covered is ultimately the best.

Thanks guys.

You know that at the end of the lease you have the option of staying in rental housing on a month to month basis - just throwing that out there as an alternative to dumping your stuff somewhere.

the house was resigned by 4/5 roomates. They have a 5th. my option is to sublet however the roomates and I were at war about my Jeep for the past month ANYWAY so they don't want it there period

How temp is temp? My mothers garage is empty the only pre-requesit is a key to move the car out should the garage be needed. Its in Whitby so its pretty close...

I used to store my car there but now with only 2 cars theres no need.

Edit: I see you need two spots so this wouldn't really fit...maybe I need to read better ;P
