Car Battery

Hi. I am going away for about a month and I need to store my car properly. When you disconnect the battery, is it necessary to disconnect the positive and the negative terminal or just the negative terminal when storing the car for about a month?

A month isn't ****.. just put a car cover over it and call it a day.

Pretty much

However to answer the question, pulling the negative terminal only is just fine.

X3. If it's a month, it's not worth your time to even disconnect the battery. If your battery is weak, it's not going to make much difference.
