on heig? Up high...on a pallet ? Trying to understand....the solution most folks on here would answer is ...a bigger garage.

I'd sell them if you're not using them. If you use them and want to keep them, just move 'em aside when you need to get to things.

If you have a tall garage, could suspend them from the roof beams (with cabling) for display and to get them out of the way. But then that'd make it hard to start them up periodically to keep the gas from going bad. I guess you can run them out of gas and then put in mothballs.

I also have two scooters. The biggest problem with them is the weight (~250 pounds). I have heavy duty racking in my garage that would hold them- but no way to get them up on the rack. If you had pallet racking and a forklift, it would be pretty easy to strap them to a pallet and put them up out of the way.

I ended up moving lighter stuff out of my shed into the garage attic and hid the scoots in the shed.

If your garage is deep enough, you could pull out your workbench or toolbox and hide them behind it. Might not be the prettiest solution, but you wouldn't need to move them.

Garage s bigger than my house, but there is two cars and 3 more motorcycles in it. The scooters are used but winter in this country near to the northpole is far to long. I do have a forklift, have to put in some more thinking here

Also, maybe build a cool shed. You can keep the scooters and perhaps the motorcycles in the shed along with yard tools, etc.. Or build a lean to/extension on the garage if the code/zoning allows.

In the USA, you usually don't even need a permit to build a shed if it's under a certain square footage.

100 sq ft on my town. After that they want footings and raise your property tax.

Build a pallet on wheels that you can roll the scooters up onto and strap them to.
Then you can move them around when needed.

If you are not planning to ride them or they don't run then put them in an outside shed, an outside crate, etc and get them out of the way.

If you must have them inside I think I would fab a shelf that would store them one on top of the other

Put them in the trash out by the curb, if really lucky you will not have to pay some one to remove them...
