If you have recently bought an RV, you have made a serious investment that needs to be cherished and protected. The Okanagan and Vernon BC is a beautiful area to use your RV, and also a great place to store your boat or RV.
Most homeowners do not have the necessary space or home security required to properly store your recreational vehicle. Additionally, many municipalities will not allow you to park your RV in a residential driveway, and even if it is legal to park your RV in your driveway, your neighbors are unlikely to appreciate your doing so! Consequently, though an RV can be used year round, a lot of people are required to store their investment for at least part of the year.
Proper storage of your RV is extremely important. It will make a huge difference in the longevity of the vehicle. If you are using a secure storage facility, your RV will be safe and secure from theft or vandalism, and easily accessible.
Below are some tips on preparing your RV for storage:
- Give your vehicle a good wax for rust prevention. - Change your oil before storing your vehicle. Make sure you run the RV for a minute or two as well to allow the new oil to run through your engine. - Check your tires, and make sure they are inflated to specifications. - Wash your vehicle carefully before you store it. Bugs, tar, or tree sap can damage the finish of your vehicle if left for long periods of time. - Make sure that you close up your RV tightly. Lock everything, and check all windows and doors.
Once you are ready to store your RV, shop around to ensure that the storage facility you select has exceptional security, and a high level of credibility — a good reputation within the community. Look for a storage company that has a strong perimeter, multiple security cameras, and some real experience within the industry.
Search for an RV storage facility that has a website so that you can learn as much as possible about your storage options, and make a phone call to learn more about the storage company that you have chosen.
