Who Stores Their Rig Indoors Over the Winter?
OK, so the not so nice weather is here for much of us and our fiver has been in indoor storage for almost 2 months now :(. As much as we hate not having it with us it is comforting knowing it is dry and clean indoors. We live in the very wet West coast that is not kind to an RV sitting outside in the elements. Unfortunately we do not have enough property to have a shop so we are forced to pay to have it inside a former chicken barn on an agricultural property about a 20 minute drive from our home.
When we started RVing over 20 years ago we always left our units outside and dealt with moldy awnings, extremely grime, black streaks, etc. in the spring and then we finally had a Terry fifth wheel that developed a leak. Friends of ours convinced us to store indoors for the late fall/winter/early spring months and we have been doing so since. It is great to put the rig indoors and pick it up 6 months later completely clean, dry, and looking exactly as it was when we put it away.
So what are others doing?
