Hey BonesBMX,
I asked around about this last year. Some of the feedback I got is below:
- Disconnect the battery so there's no drain. Since the warehouse is heated, you should be okay to leave it in the car. If it was cold, you should take it out. Cold is apparently bad for batteries.
- Put Stabil (gas stabilizer) in the gas tank to keep the gas gasey.
- Putting the car on 4 jack stands was recommended to me. This is so the tires don't develop flat spots. It also gives the suspension a rest for a while.
- Changing the fluids (oil, coolant) right before you box it up was also recommended to me.
- If the warehouse floor emanates moisture, you may want to park the car (or wrap the bottom of the car) on plastic sheeting to discourage rust. You can get this reasonably cheap at any hardware store.
- If pesky rodents are a possible problem, you may want to block any holes (tail pipes, etc).
- Put a desiccant (silica, baking soda, yearone has one) inside the car to keep it dry. This sucks up the moisture that causes mildew and yuck smells.
- A clean car in storage is a happy car.
You may not need to do all this stuff since you're in a heated space, but I hope this helps!
