Roof only Class C Cover

I am looking for a cover for the TOP of my class C. Something similar to a fitted sheet type design that will cover the top and extend down the sides maybe a foot or two.

I have considered a "pop up camper" cover as an alternative.

I park my C under some trees and just need to protect the roof.

Any suggestions?
  • Purchased a Four Winds 5000 23rk this September. We also have a 24 foot TT. The TT lost its spot in the garage to the MH. We have lots of snow and wind here in Idaho. I've covered a previous a MH, before the garage, using a big blue tarp and lots of rope.

    I used a big blue tarp from Harbor Freight. This time I bought three yellow tow straps 25 feet long with loops on each end. Put the tarp on, the straps over both ends and one in the middle. Tied the loop ends together under the TT, than ran a rope all the way around trough the loop ends that hung about two-feet from the bottom edge of TT. I ran a small rope through the holes at the bottom of the tarp crossing under the TT. We had 50 mph winds already this year. It flaped a little but never moved. Before, when I just used rope over the top, it would loosen up and flap like crazy.
  • Several yrs ago purchased a camao colored tarp at Harbor Freight.
    14 wide X 40 long.for less than $50.00. Tie it down all around and put one rope over the middle to keep it from ballooning have had no problems even in high winds. I also have trees around that will make roof nasty if dont cover.
  • Unless you are in an area that gets no wind you will be putting it back on frequently. We had a full cover on our 27' Class C one year. It blew off in a heavy wind to the corn field across the street. The next time we put it on we had ropes that circled the entire MH around front to back and over top and back. I had over 500' of rope. The wind managed to remove the cover and leave all of the ropes in place. The cover got put away after that.
  • Try a full cover, and if you don't like it, get it customized.
    Price will probably be the same.

    Thanks for the tip...they are full unit covers only.

    Yes, I considered a tarp as well, but would rather have something more fitted.

  • We use a Sunshield tarp and hold it down with bottles of antifreeze or similar weight that won't mar the sides of the rig.
