Title: Secured Parking
Post by: Mikes off road on August 15, 2005, 12:36:09 AM

I was wondering if anybody in the Calgary area knows of a secure place that I could park my Jeep at.Reason being I'm going to B.C for a week and I don't want to tow it over the mountains. Was thinking about the airport just not sure how secure it is any ideas would be great.

The airport itself would be very secure. The private long term parking would be again secure but not as much as the airport. I think most cars are stolen for joyrides. And the airport is a little out of the way for any kiddies to walk to. But if someone really wanted your vehicle, there is nothing stopping them from taking it.

The airport long term parking is very secure (camera's monitored 24/7 near most entrances/exits, all you have to do is park near one).

I've parked my jeep in the long term parking for three weeks with the soft top on a couple of times and never had any problems.  That said, I never have anything in it worth stealing unless you want my carpet or backseat.  :wink:

I got underground condo parking. But only one stall. Just park it at the airport, it will be safe.
