Trailer parking for 2 weeks between Tewkesbury - Folkstone


Recommended Posts

Posted

Thought I would ask on here to see if anyone can help.

 

I am attending the Saab National at Prescott Hill this weekend and I am planning on heading to Le Mans for a couple of weeks afterwards. It seems a bit daft to tow the trailer (with car on it) all the way back up to Aberdeen to just turn around and head back south. A friend has offered to store it in Cumbria, but still a lot of extra miles. Does anyone know of some secure storage where I could leave a 4 wheel car transporter trailer complete with a little Saab Sonett for a couple of weeks? Happy to pay a reasonable amount of course as it will save diesel. I shall be leaving Prescott late Sunday afternoon so looking for storage from Sunday evening or Monday morning and anywhere in the Tewkesbury  to Folkstone corridor or within 30-50 miles would be ace.

 

Anybody know of anything?

Need to see how much room there’s going to be for my van but I might have a bit of tarmac in Gloucester on an industrial estate (24h security, cctv)

That would be fantastic if possible! Thank you. I understand if there is no room, but here's hoping

Only thing that might put you off is there’s open access 24/7, it’s not a locked compound.

If Killox's offer doesn't work out I'd be happy to help.  I'm not within 50miles of your route (PE14 postcode) but a lot closer than Cumbria!  It's at my house (on land which can't be seen from the road).  I can certainly get the Sonnet in one of my garages and possibly the trailer depending on size, but my transporter trailer has stood outside for 10 years without incident.

 

Perhaps bare me in mind if you are still stuck by the weekend?

Unfortunately I won’t be able to confirm until Friday whether there’s a space available so if you get a better offer then by all means

You could stick it on my drive in Doncaster. No security though as my bike is stuck in Austria so I'll be using my car thats normally parked in the way.

Also off route, but I've got some hard standing outside my gaff in Lincs, PE10 that could be used if needed. No security, but I can hide it behind a broken Espace.

I am about an hour from Prescott, near the West end of the M50. Plenty of room in the back garden for a trailer, out of sight of the road behind the house but not otherwise securable.

WOW! So many kind offers from so many people to a stranger on the internet! Thank you one and all.

 

After some communicaton I have decided to take BeEP up on his offer, so look forward to meeting him, but again thank you to all that have offered.

Glad to help and look forward to meeting you too.  But maybe more to having a Sonnet to perv over for two weeks!

Huge, huge thanks to BeEP for storing the Sonett and trailer, really appreciated. Sorry the Sonett was not running so you could have had a play, next time. Covered 946 miles yesterday with the 9-3, roughly half with the trailer on and got home at midnight on the dot. Averaged 44 mpg as well, so happy with that

I missed this thread, I often have an off-road parking space free in Herne Bay if you ever need it on your journey back and forth (no security)

Glad you got back ok.  I completely forgot to take a photo of the Sonett snuggling up with the 1100s and landcrab!
