Long term covered parking

[cliveuk]

Does anyone know of any covered parking in the Pattaya area, we are flying out of Bkk airport and didn't want to leave the car out in the open for a month, any suggestions?

[ThailandRyan]

Where do you normally park it when in town?  Does your house or condo not have any covered parking?  If it is covered where you normally park it, then just arrange a ride into BKK.  Plenty of Mini-Vans that make the trip.

I have a friend who lives a couple of hours from our airport, I live about 10 minutes from it, when he goes on his hols, I let him park up at my place.

 

Perhaps there is a member here that could do similar.....????

Drive to the airport and park in the covered multi story, 200 Baht per day .

That's exactly what I was thinking, and then will it start up on the return with it sitting unused.  I know my Motorbike will, but my car needs to be on a trickle charger if I am not using the APP for my MG HS I-smart to start it every few days.

Book it in for a service, tell them you'll pick it up in a month ????

 

You could always try the same as that story doi g the rounds, get a loan from pawn shop, keep the car as collateral, go back in a month, give em the money back, collect the car. ????

 

(Meant in fun)

So? It hardly expensive for a large National international airport if you want convenience and a safe place to park.  Others are suggesting a van or private car from Pattaya to BKK and that truly doesn't make any sense financially if cost is the issue. There is nothing better than arriving after a 10 hour flight and only walking a few meters to your own car to drive home.

Buy a new battery mate.  This is all hardly rocket science.

Okay.  The OP never said that cost was the overriding  issue.  If it is, then  I'm  out of the discussion.

As I posted before, I help a guy out, it saves him money and his ride is safe, plus if it doesn't start, I can start it....????

I usually park it at my storage facility. He lets me park it for a cheap price.

Do you not have a friend with a condo in Pattaya? Get him to drive it in and park it up.

I think they have staff that will jumpstart your car, they did for my mate.

Or phone GS battery's they'll come and fit one.

I have always thought this would be a great business idea, long term parking for cars and bikes, rent a shed somewhere, secure parking, regular maintenance/starting etc, transport to/from airport, have it washed and ready for a return date.

I have undercover parking at my condo but often return to a flat battery, dirty, etc. And the condo office often has a clean out (starts charging for) cars parked longer than a year

[carumego]

you can park in pattaya with Wuth Lee at " [email protected] " at 1000bath a month and take taxy to airport from there

That is what i used to do

They will charge your battery if is needed  tel 086 3480860-090 1204204

I checked in to a hotel, parked the car, came back 3 weeks later, 2 100,- baht

 

Called the hotel before booking, and made a deal

Surely, they have to accommodate visitors and guests?

The ones I have gone to don't seem to ask or bother.

Getting off a 10 hour flight as drunk as a skunk and unable to spell car let alone drive one sounds better to me.
