I store in a great secure & gated facility -
90 units all 50 feet deep, most are 15 wide a few 20 wide.
Every bay has a locked private (14 foot roll-up) door.
Dump tank & wash bay on site.
Each (private) bay has a dedicated 50a outlet along with a 15a (quad) outlet box at the front & rear of each bay & plenty of overhead lights.
I'm in a 15 foot wide unit and have plenty of room to walk around my coach (even w/ the slide partially extended) - there is enough over head clearance that i can work on the roof and stand up (no need to crawl around on my hands and knees).
The freedom to work on things in the bay is huge - I start projects & don't have to worry about completing them or leaving tools out or cleaning up...I can come back and finish the task as often as i like, work as late or early as i want....just pull the door shut, lock it and finish later.
I looked at (roof) covered (but open on 4 sides) storage that was just as if not more expensive than what we pay & I didn't provide 1/2 the benefits. I didn't like the idea of being so close to others (the spaces were narrow...door dings, etc) and you were on a shared 15a outlet (if one person trips the outlet everyone else ends up w/ dead batteries)....for the money our storage is a good deal & is close to or sticks & bricks home (2 miles).

They need to go and start building more of those across the country...that is the cadillac of storage there..
