Storing your boats, campers, and RVs properly is crucial to keeping them in great condition while they’re not in use. At Snow Cap Storage in Rigby, Idaho, we want to make sure your vehicles stay safe and secure. Here are some key tips for storing your recreational vehicles.
Choose a Secure Storage Facility
The first step in ensuring the safety of your stored vehicles is choosing a facility with proper security measures. Look for the following:
- Fenced and Gated Access: Your storage facility should be fenced with controlled entry to keep unauthorized individuals out.
- Security Cameras: Ensure the facility has surveillance cameras to monitor your vehicle 24/7.
Secure Your Vehicle
Once you’ve chosen a secure facility, it’s important to make sure your vehicle is locked down and protected:
- Lock All Doors: Ensure all entry points on your boat, camper, or RV are locked and secured.
- Cover Your Boat: For boats stored outdoors, use a high-quality cover to protect against weather elements.
- Remove Propane Tanks and Batteries: For added safety, consider storing these items inside a storage unit to protect them from theft or damage.
Avoid Storing Items Around Your Vehicle
While it might be tempting to store additional items around your vehicle, this can create easy access points for thieves. Keep the area around your boat, camper, or RV clear to minimize risks.
By following these tips, you can ensure your recreational vehicles stay safe and ready for your next adventure. Snow Cap Storage takes all the necessary precautions to protect your items, and we encourage you to do the same!
