I've always stored my deck down because I have young kids and having it on the ground seemed better than having it elevated and them climbing all over it.

Am I going to wear out my spring faster by storing the deck all the way down? When you guys park, where do you set the deck?
Not sure it will wear it out any faster. I think of it this way tho. Springs only break while under tension. Garage door springs never break when the door is up.
