No. See the above question.

Can I cancel my insurance while I store with you?

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. Many insurance companies require that they recieve notice of a change in use of your vehicle (such as storage), and may have specific conditions of coverage particular to your own policy.

We are very flexible on this! Typically customers in this situation will leave us with their credit or debit card information. We will run the card automatically every month so you don’t have to worry about it! There are other options as well so please call us.
