RV Storage and City Regulations
If you have not made storage arrangements for your RV this year, remember that an RV cannot be parked on a public street for more than 72 hours. Some cities or neighborhoods prohibit RV parking on residential lots and some even require a licence to do so. Be sure that you check city ordinances and neighborhood covenants for RV storage on your lot. Some neighborhoods have written guidelines that prohibit motorhomes, fifth wheels, travel trailers and certain types of portable RV garages from being on site as well.
Being a polite RV owner should also be a consideration when you choose outdoor RV storage. If you are allowed to choose home storage but your RV sticks out like a sore thumb, reconsider your options. Even a new, top of the line model is an eyesore if it blocks your neighbors' view!
If you cannot park your RV at home due to ordinances or covenants, check with your local RV store or sales center. You are likely to get reliable information about an RV storage garage or an outdoor lot. And if you store your RV outdoors, remember to use an RV storage cover to protect your investment!
