Enjoy Reliable, Safe and Secure RV and Boat Storage
Storing a vehicle at a storage facility is a simple way to get your space back and reduce headaches that come with keeping a car, boat, or RV at home. Open air parking gives you a dedicated spot that is designed for vehicles, not squeezed into a driveway or wedged along a curb.
One of the biggest advantages is freeing up room. A boat trailer or RV can take over a garage bay, block access, or force extra vehicles to shuffle around every week. Moving it off site opens up parking for daily drivers, keeps sidewalks clear, and makes your property easier to manage. Let us help you find the right parking space size!
It can also help you stay compliant with neighborhood rules. Many HOAs restrict boat and RV parking, and some cities have limits on how long oversized vehicles can sit on the street. A storage facility gives you a straightforward solution that avoids warnings, fines, or neighbor conflicts.
Security is another major benefit. Facilities are typically set up with controlled access and perimeter features that discourage casual theft and vandalism. Even with open air parking, being inside a managed property is usually safer than leaving a vehicle exposed on a quiet street or in a side yard. Convenience matters, too. A storage lot is built for wide turns, longer vehicles, and easier backing. That is a big deal for RV owners and boaters who do not want to thread the needle in tight residential spaces. It also makes loading and unloading gear less stressful because you are not blocking traffic or fighting for room.
Open air parking can be a smart way to protect the vehicle’s condition over time. Keeping an RV or boat off grass and away from sprinklers can reduce moisture issues and corrosion on frames and components. It also helps prevent driveway stains and yard damage from long term parking. Finally, it supports better trip readiness. When you keep your boat or RV in a consistent spot, you can check it, stage supplies, and plan departures without the chaos of rearranging everything at home. For seasonal vehicles, it is an easy habit that keeps ownership enjoyable instead of inconvenient.
How to Prepare Your Vehicle for Storage
A little prep before you park can help your car, boat, or RV stay in great shape and be ready to go when you need it again. Use the quick tips below to reduce wear, prevent surprises, and make your next trip or drive hassle free.
- Clean it inside and out so dirt, salt, and food residue do not cause staining, odors, or corrosion
- Remove valuables and important documents, including registration paperwork and electronics
- Top off fluids, including oil, coolant, and windshield washer fluid, and check for any leaks
- Fill the fuel tank and add fuel stabilizer for longer storage to help prevent moisture and fuel breakdown
- Check tire pressure and consider tire covers to reduce UV damage, especially for RVs and trailers
- Disconnect the battery or use a battery maintainer if your setup allows it
- Close all windows and vents, then add moisture absorbers to help prevent mildew and musty odors
- For boats and RVs, drain water systems if freezing temperatures are possible and turn off propane
- Cover the vehicle if desired and ensure the cover is secure and breathable
- Lock doors, latch compartments, and keep spare keys in a safe place at home
- Do a final walk around to confirm lights are off, accessories are unplugged, and parking is straight and stable
