AAAA Auto Storage is confident that we not only offer unparalleled car storage service but at the best rate in San Diego.

Please note for example that we cannot match On Base car parking rates.

Although we have insurance, included in your rate, to include fire, theft collision, and vandalism caused by our negligence, we require that you keep your comprehensive coverage on your car and notify your insurance company that the car is in storage during its time here.
