We have noticed a couple of places, look like farms.  One is just off the M8 west of the airport, the other is west of the M74 just as you come onto it coming out of Glasgow.   No idea of the names, but you can see the vans from the motorways.

One just off the A736 (?) Irvine road at Johnstone, "something nurseries" another down near Hailleys in Burnhouse named Lugtonridge this one has excellent security and even saves us some on our insurance.

We couldnt get storage for our van in or around Glasgow, not one with secure storage anyway.

 

We store ours in Catrine in Ayrshire, which is brilliant as we spend most weekends down that coast anyway.  They charge £200 for outdoor storage and £300 for indoor storage, very helpful friendly family

Its COSSOA registered too so saves you a few bucks on your insurance too

For anyone who can..........................we are very short of caravan storage in Ayrshire.  My friend pays £250 per year and has to pay £6 if they take the caravan out any more than 6 times in a year!  what a rip off!

your friend must have her van stored in beith, i thought it was a joke having to pay the £6 they charge you for taking your van out

 

Beith is nearer to us, but we figured that it would cost us a fortune as we have already had our van out every weekend so far this year.

 

My parents store their van somewhere in Hamilton but its not secure storage, anyone can wander in and out at anytime and no one stops them to see who they are.  We picked up my parents van for them one weekend and no one batted an eye

 

Wouldnt feel safe leaving my van there at all.

 

When we were looking for vans for sale last year we went to a little storage place up a tiny little road in East kilbride it was a nightmare to get to in the car nevermind lugging a caravan up it too.  Storage there was only £100 and it was obvious why too

 

I wouldnt move our van from where it is, the family are great very helpful, sometimes I go down to pick van up on my own and the guy there hooks it up for me and everything while I have a natter with his mum

Hi, Beith it is and like you my friend uses her van a lot so costs a load.  Hamilton is a bit far especially if it is to be collected after work.  But thanks anyway.  If I hear of anything else I i will be sure to post.

I dont store my van in Hamilton, I store mines in Catrine, Ayrshire which is approx 15 miles from Ayr.

 

It costs us £199 for the year, see my earlier posts on this topic

 

Someone else stores their van in Hamilton

 

Thats a bit out of the way for us as we are on Southside, my parents have theirs in Hamilton which is ideal for them as its only 10 mins from them as they are in the east end
