Your classic car deserves better than a damp garage. Magna Park's foam insulated containers prevent the condensation that causes rust and deterioration — from just £55/week with no VAT, on a CCTV-monitored site.
Classic car owners in Dorset know the biggest enemy isn't mileage — it's moisture. During winter storage, condensation forms inside unheated garages and standard metal containers as temperatures fluctuate. This moisture settles on bodywork, chrome, and undercarriages, accelerating rust and deterioration. Professional classic car storage facilities charge £200-£400 per month for climate-controlled environments. Magna Park offers a practical alternative: foam insulated steel containers at £55/week with no VAT.
Our foam insulation creates a thermal buffer between the steel walls and the air inside the container. This significantly reduces temperature swings and prevents condensation from forming on internal surfaces. While it's not heated climate control, it's a dramatic improvement over a standard garage or bare metal container — and at a fraction of the specialist cost. Classic car owners across Dorset, from Bournemouth and Poole to Wimborne and Christchurch, use our containers for winter storage and long-term preservation.
The site on Provence Drive (BH11 9FA) is monitored by CCTV 24/7 and secured with perimeter fencing and pin-coded gates. Your classic car sits inside a locked steel container with your own padlock — it's not visible from outside and not accessible to anyone but you. Many owners store additional items alongside their car: spare parts, car covers, tool kits, and restoration materials. A 20ft container gives you room for the car plus all the extras.

Most classic cars fit comfortably. The internal dimensions are 20ft long x 8ft wide x 8.5ft high. Anything from an MGB to a Jaguar E-Type to a classic Mini will fit. Wider American classics should check exact dimensions.
Wash and dry thoroughly. Apply a coat of wax to paintwork. Inflate tyres slightly above normal pressure or use axle stands. Disconnect the battery or use a trickle charger (bring a portable power pack). Place moisture absorber bags inside the car. Use a breathable car cover — never plastic.
It's not the same as a heated, dehumidified unit. However, foam insulation dramatically reduces condensation — the main cause of storage damage. For most classic cars, insulated container storage provides adequate protection at a much more accessible price point.
You have 24/7 access, so you can visit to run the engine, check on the car, or take it for a drive. We recommend running the engine outside the container (not inside with doors closed) for obvious ventilation reasons.
