GTA Online Vehicle Warehouses: Everything You Need to Know

Vehicle Warehouses are properties players can purchase in GTA Online as part of the Import/Export update. Warehouses allow players to store, modify, and sell stolen vehicles for profit, as long as they have the initial capital to purchase the Vehicle Warehouse and the associated costs. For players who want to speed up progress or skip early grinding, many choose to buy GTA accounts, giving them instant access to the required resources.

Purchasing a warehouse is straightforward, but it requires some steps to be taken beforehand in order to unlock the option to buy one. Even after that, some players might feel lost as to what to do and the best way to do it. That is why, in this article, we will be explaining how to purchase a warehouse, what warehouses are available, the average gameplay loop when it comes to selling, and we will be giving you some tips that should be helpful for old and new players alike.

How to Buy a Warehouse

Purchasing a Vehicle Warehouse allows players to begin Vehicle Cargo missions in GTA Online. In order to purchase a warehouse, you must first own an office. If you do not already own an office, you will need to select and purchase an office location using the Dynasty 8 Executive website through your in-game phone.

After you have bought an office, here is what you need to do to acquire a Vehicle Warehouse:

1. Open the Interaction Menu and Register as a Boss through SecuroServ

2. Access the desktop computer in your office

3. Log in to the SecuroServ servers

4. Click on “Vehicle Cargo”

5. Choose your desired Vehicle Warehouse

6. Purchase it using your in-game currency

Those who already own an office and are registered as a CEO may start from step two of the process. Keep in mind that only one warehouse can be owned per player, so choose wisely. On a positive note, Vehicle Warehouses cannot be raided by NPCs, nor by players.

All Warehouses in the Game

In total, there are nine Vehicle Warhouses available for purchase, and their prices depend on two primary factors. The first factor is location. Warehouses in open, accessible areas cost more than those in tighter spaces. The other factor is hostility, with, of course, areas with higher levels of hostile activity being cheaper.

The nine available Vehicle Warehouses are shown in the table below:

It is generally recommended to buy a Vehicle Warehouse near your office, as you will most likely be travelling between your office and your warehouse frequently. If you don’t already have an office, you can buy one based on your desired Vehicle Warehouse.

The La Mesa Vehicle Warehouse is recommended for players regardless of skill level or what stage of the game they are in. Not only does its location make delivery missions slightly easier, but it is also located next to the freeways where players will most likely be spending most of their time, not to mention how cheap it is.

La Puerta is also a popular choice, in spite of its high price. La Puerta has superior access to highways with less hostile NPC activity, meaning that the chances of a successful delivery to and from your warehouse are increased.

How the Vehicle Warehouse Works

The basic gameplay loop for Vehicle Cargo missions is simple, with the difficulty of the missions depending on your resources and the location of your Vehicle Warehouse. Basically, each mission involves sourcing (stealing) vehicles and then selling them from your warehouse.

To start a mission, select your Vehicle Warehouse from your office computer and then select the “Source Vehicle” button. There are three types of vehicles you can source: Standard, Mid, and Top Range. Each type can be exported, sold, for different sums, ranging from $30.000 for Standard range Vehicles to $100.000 for the top range ones. Before you leave to steal the vehicle, you should speak to your assistant and have them arrange your personal vehicle, saving you some time.

While there are different types of missions, most of the time you will need to deliver the sourced car to your Vehicle Warehouse without damaging it, something that is easier said than done, as both hostile NPCs and other players may aim to damage the vehicle. You will have to pay for any damages incurred during transportation, at a rate of ~$500 per bullet hit.

Once you are safely inside your warehouse, you will be able to export your sourced vehicles and start making money. Just keep in mind that when delivering vehicles, you will have to pay for any damages, just like when sourcing the car.

Tips for Players

In GTA Online, many things could go wrong and prevent you from making a profit, or at least cause a significant dent in your profit margins. From the mundane car crashes so common in GTA games to hostile NPCs and even other players that get their jollies from messing with other players, there is no shortage of potential dangers.

Thankfully, there are some tricks you can use to decrease the potential danger you may run into. Here are some tips that will make your life easier while increasing your profits in the long run:

Invest in a Cargobob

This transportation helicopter will allow you to deliver your cargo quickly, efficiently, and, most importantly, relatively safely, as you will not need to worry about potential crashes and hostile NPCs. The greatest and only threat you might encounter while in the air is other players. They will see that you are doing an export mission and may try to stop you.

Start implementing the 20-32 cars technique

This technique is relatively simple to pull off and highly profitable. Essentially, vehicles never duplicate, and there are a total of 10 Standard and 10 Mid range vehicles, so if you fill your warehouse with them and don’t export them, you are guaranteed to get a Top range vehicle the next time you launch a “Source Vehicle” mission. This will allow you to make more money in the long run, as all of the cars you flip will be Top range ones.

Invest in the Terrorbyte and the Oppresor MK II

While the weaponry and the defensive capabilities of the Terrorbyte are all well and good, especially if you want to improve the security of your warehouse and make coming and going a bit easier, the real utility of the Terrorbyte comes from the fact that you can source vehicles from the console located inside of it, meaning that you no longer have to waste time going to and from your office. After you choose your mark, you can exit the Terrorbyte and hop on the Oppresor MK II. The Oppresor’s ability to fly in combination with its rear-mounted rocket boosters will allow you to reach your target at incredible speed. Its missile countermeasures are just the cherry on top.
