Everybody loves more storage space and easy access. And there is no easier way to get more driveway or parking space than storing your rv or trailer. Trailers and RVs these days come in all shapes and sizes. Regardless if you have a 40ft RV or a 7ft trailer, it’s always nice to get a little extra space back at your home or apartment.
Most neighborhoods have HOA restrictions on parking spaces and leaving an RV or Trailer on the street for an extended period of time. To avoid the hassle of reparking your vehicle every other week and dealing with angry neighbors, definitely look into storage for trailers and rvs to get your HOA off your back. No one wants to pay an annoying fine.
Travel trailer storage and rv storage can be convenient as well. If you use your rv or trailer for a specific reason, such as camping in Lake Tahoe or the numerous other great recreation areas, then leaving it in that general location makes travel that much easier. By using rv parking storage that's conveniently located, you won’t have to find parking at your house and it saves you a trip driving your rv to and from your camping destination of choice.
Leaving your rv or trailer on the street and out in the elements isn't safe. It opens it up to potential security and damage risk. RVs can be a target for car thieves and sometimes don’t have the best security features, so leaving it on the street might not be in your best interests. Also to avoid damages due to weather or harsh elements, indoor rv storage is the way to go. Not only is it very secure, but your rv will stay in tip top shape by being out of the elements. Indoor RV Storage can be somewhat expensive however so make sure to check out covered rv storage and outdoor trailer storage as well if you live in a moderate climate.
The types of RV storage looks a lot like an In-N-Out menu . There are really only three options: Indoor rv storage, covered rv storage, and outdoor rv storage
Definitely the most pricey option but indoor RV storage offers the most protection, care, and security. If you are looking for indoor trailer storage then a 10x20 storage unit should work fine. If you need to store an rv then most likely a 10x40 would be your best bet.
This is the most common form of storage for recreational vehicles, since it is the cheapest, most flexible and can handle large vehicles. Most storage facilities offer open lot parking while others have designated RV parking lots. If you don’t mind the exposure to the elements then this is the way to go.
Not too hot and not too cold. Covered RV storage offers a mix between indoor and outdoor trailer storage. It provides protection from the weather and is quite cheaper than indoor rv storage.
