During the winter, most families don’t use their motorhomes, as the temperatures and conditions are not optimal for spending time on the road. If this sounds familiar, consider renting RV storage for the season. A secure facility will ensure your rig is in top condition when you’re ready to hit the road in the spring. Here are a few more benefits to keep in mind. 

What Are the Benefits of RV Storage? 

1. Minimize Wear & Tear

If an RV stays outside all winter, it may incur damage caused by the changing weather. Exposure to hail, winds, and occasional snow can reduce the lifespan of the exterior weatherproofing. You can easily protect it by placing the RV in storage where it will be protected from the elements.

2. Save Space

Most people don’t have room to store a motorhome on their property. If you do, you may be displacing vehicles or landscaping equipment that will instead have to spend the winter outside. By renting RV storage, you won’t have to worry about making space at home. 

3. Prevent Critter Problems

When you don’t use an RV for more than a few weeks, the rig may be vulnerable to pests. Rodents like rats, squirrels, and mice may find their way into your RV and make themselves at home. They could damage upholstery by creating nests while leaving behind messes that will require time and money to clean up. RV storage prevents these issues from occurring by providing a secure, frequently monitored locale for the RV to wait out the cold season.

4. Create Peace of Mind

RV storage facilities provide security measures to ensure everything is as you left it when you drove in at the start of the season. You’ll gain peace of mind knowing you don’t have to check on the caravan until it’s time to take it out on another adventure in the spring.
