Holiday Travel: How To Safely Store Your RV While Away
Are you planning a holiday trip and wondering how to protect your RV while away? If you own one, storing it securely while you’re away is imperative. Honey Bee RV Storage is here to help you protect your RV from harsh weather, theft, and other risks. Enjoy peace of mind by following our best practices for RV storage.
1. Choose a Safe RV Storage Facility
Check that your RV storage facility has controlled access and good lighting. At Honey Bee RV Storage, we have gated access and strong security features to keep your RV safe. Finding a secure storage facility is the first step in protecting your RV while away.
2. Clean and Prepare Your RV
Thoroughly clean the inside and outside of your RV to keep it in top shape while you’re away. Start by removing all food and emptying the trash to avoid attracting pests. Wipe down surfaces and vacuum to keep the interior fresh. Wash and dry the exterior to remove dirt, grime, and road salt that could cause damage.
3. Protect Against the Weather
If you’re heading out on holiday, consider using a winter RV cover to protect it. These covers shield your RV from snow, rain, ice, and UV rays, helping prevent damage from the cold weather. A strong, quality cover can protect against rust and fading. You may want to consider adding more protection to your RV if your storage facility has covered storage options.
4. Disconnect the Battery and Other Devices
When your RV is in storage, disconnect the battery and any devices that might drain power. Turning off the battery switch or taking the battery out can stop it from draining or freezing in cold weather. Unplugging appliances and electronics also help protect your RV’s electrical system from power surges and keeps everything in good shape.
