I'm looking to purchase alot of vinyl plank this weekend while its on sale. I don't have an immediate need for it but when tenants move, I will use it up. Would storing it in my unheated garage be a bad idea? I know it can expand and contract but since they'll still be in the boxes, will it hurt the flooring?

that material is stored in unheated warehouses all the time, you can store it in the garage. as @Brad L. mentioned just let it acclimate for a couple of days in the house before installing it.

We move our paint into heated storage for the winter (Northern Idaho), but we have stored glue strip Allure in an unheated shop without any problem. Happy shopping!

How did it work out Samantha? I know this is four years later. I am in same situation. The flooring i have coming today is Lifeproof and at 3.48 ft not wanting to store it and have it ruined. But I have little space otherwise. -Tamm
