Temporary storage in Michigan

I just bought a car at the salvage auction in Belleville MI. They've given me till Wednesday to have it shipped before they start charging storage fees.

No problem usually, but there seems to be no trucks going from MI to TX on Central Dispatch. Kind of an odd ball situation that i've never experienced in the past.

I'm wondering if I can find some temporary storage until I can find a shipper. I can't imagine that it would take more then a couple of weeks.

Thanks

Probably not much good to you but I've got a warehouse 2.5 hours south in Columbus. If you've got someone to bring it down I could help you out for a bit.

Maybe check with AAA or the local city chamber of commerce or any large car parts house you deal with at home

I've got a shade tree off of a drive way three hours to the southwest.

Put the car in a local full-sized storage locker. The first month is 17.00
