Guide to RV Storage

Finding an affordable and handy way for RV storage can take some of the fun out of having one. Restricted space in your driveway or yard, or restrictions from home-owner associations, apartment leases or community parking laws, can make RV storage a huge hassle.

Here are some reasons to consider leasing RV storage space for your vehicle:

Security - Most top end RV storage facilities provide a mix of keypad entry systems, perimeter fencing, security cameras and on-duty management staff to provide peace of mind.

Convenient access - leasing a RV storage space close to a major road or favorite waterway means spending less time, fuel and tricky driving going to and from the fun.

Extra space - An enclosed RV storage space gives you additional sq footage to store not only your RV, but the supplies and hardware that go with it.

Options that provide more shielding from the weather have higher costs.

Tips for RV storage:

- Rigorously check the dimensions of any RV storage unit you're considering. Most RVs require at least 30-40 feet. Trailers and other large equipment may be too wide for the door of an enclosed unit, so covered parking would be commended.

- Sanitary stations and electrical plug-ins are available in outdoor units at some RV storage facilities.

- RV storage facilities typically require that repairs and extensive maintenance of RVs and boats be done some place else.

- Evidence of insurance and vehicle registration are required by RV storage facilities.

- Most RV storage facilities require that tires on cars and trailers always be properly inflated. If you've got any questions or fears about using an RV storage, ask the storage facility manager.
