Storing tires - the advantages of self-storage

Your own storage space, which you use for self-storage, offers you first-class benefits. If you want to store tires, you can enjoy these benefits as a customer of LAGERBOX:

  • Store tires in dry and clean conditions
  • Store tires in suitable light and temperature conditions (dark and cool)
  • Insurance cover
  • Tires stored without additional costs from garages or similar providers
  • Availability of the tire storage facility you have rented
  • Storing tires: security with alarm protection

Users of self-storage particularly appreciate the fact that this modern type of storage allows them to visit their own warehouse as required and carry out the monthly rotation of the tires there. This also supports the careful storage of tires and is an important factor if you value tire storage under perfectly suitable conditions.

LAGERBOX offers you these conditions - and good reasons to store tires there safely and securely.

The basics: How to store your tires

Whether you have your own room or suitable tire storage near your home: As the owner, you should know the 1 x 1 of tire storage. How do you or the specialists store the tires correctly? That depends on whether the tires are separate or on rims.

Tires without rims:

  • Use a tire rack or tire holder: Store tires horizontally and make sure they are stored safely.
  • Rotate regularly: Rotate tires about once a month to distribute loads evenly.

Tires with rims:

  • Hanging or stacking: tires on rims can either be stacked or hung.
  • Use a rim tree: A rim tree is ideal for storing tires gently and saving space.

Even if you are now well informed about the discussion “storing tires vertically or horizontally”, there are other important aspects that you should know in order to store the respective tires correctly. Ideally, you should not store either type of tire upright. This type of tire storage is considered improper and can result in deformation and limited functionality or even safety deficits, among other things.

Harmful influences on tires:

Tires are made of special rubber that can be affected by certain substances or conditions. In addition to the factors already mentioned, such as moisture and temperature (especially heat), you should avoid the following damaging influences:

  • Oil
  • Grease
  • Gasoline
  • Dust
  • UV light
  • Acids

With proper tire storage at LAGERBOX and the avoidance of these influences, you can extend the service life of your tires, maintain their safety and quality and, of course, save costs.

Storing tires - good preparation also helps

Tires can only be stored optimally if they are carefully prepared so that deformation and porosity are avoided. Here are the individual steps:

1. cleaning and inspection:

  • Clean tires thoroughly before storing: Use a mild soapy water solution as an efficient and gentle way to clean the tires.
  • Check the tread: Check for and remove any particles (e.g. small stones) that may have become lodged in the tread.

2. adjust the air pressure:

  • Increase the air pressure: Increase the air pressure by 0.5 bar above the normal value. This helps to ensure that the tires are stored gently.

3. protection through packaging:

  • Packing tires: Use special tire bags or simple plastic bags to protect the tires from dust, moisture and other damaging influences.

4. mark position:

  • Mark tire position: Mark the position of the tires (e.g. “Front left” or “Rear right”) to ensure correct mounting after storage.


These steps ensure that your tires are optimally prepared and safely stored, thus extending their service life and ensuring their safety.

Alternative options for tire storage - safe & effective

You now know the reasons why safe and solid tire storage is essential. Now you need to decide what you want to use as the perfect storage facility.

1. your own domicile

Of course, it is highly convenient to store tires on your own premises. However, it is not uncommon for various properties not to offer the right space or conditions. In addition, rim trees or tire racks are a good and gentle way to store tires. However, the stored tires are not covered by insurance.

2. workshop as storage

Many drivers use the services of garages to store their tires. These professionals change the tires and offer tire storage close to the owner - professionally and securely. However, the prices for tire storage in garages are often high, which can put a strain on the budget. You should therefore check exactly how much tire storage may cost and compare prices carefully.

Another disadvantage: you are dependent on the availability of garages. Before Easter and in the fall, when many customers want to change and store their tires, garages are often overloaded. Although tire storage is safe, it is often expensive and dependent on capacity.

3. self-storage: store tires as required

If you want to store tires and value a high degree of independence, self-storage is a smart strategy. The modern storage rooms are ideal if you want to store tires that may be expensive. LAGERBOX offers you cleverly developed framework conditions as a basis for storing your modern tires and benefiting from attractive costs.
