For RV owners, Denver is a sort of paradise. It’s right between the stunning Rocky Mountains to the west and beautiful plains to the east. You can easily hop in your RV and visit either year-round.
However, you probably cannot park your RV on the street. So, what is an RV owner to do? Find a well-secured, fairly-priced self-storage facility, of course.
Denver has 112 self-storage facilities, of which 17 store RVs and boats. To find the best RV storage facility for you, read on.
Consider 24 Hour Access
Even with the Rocky Mountains in your backyard, you may want to visit other parts of the U.S. in your RV. Sometimes, that means leaving early to beat traffic, and coming home so late at night everything is closed. Even when you visit the mountains, you would probably prefer to make your own schedule independent of the hours a facility happens to be open.
As such, look into self-storage facilities with 24 hour access. Of course, when winter hits, you can still travel, but to protect your water system, you will need to
winterize it..
Look Into Flexible Leases
No one wants to pay for a service when they’re not using it.
Fortunately, some self-storage facilities offer flexible leases on RV storage units. You may be able to lower the amount you pay while on an extended vacation, and have more money for renting your space in an RV park or for various vacation activities.
These leases can vary, so ask each place you’re considering about them.
The Importance of Good Security in Denver
Despite the cheery weather, crime in Denver is twice that of the rest of the state. So, it behoves you to make sure your RV is in a safe facility. A self-storage facility for RVs may be nothing more than an fenced parking lot, or it can be a fully enclosed and locked unit with its own security code. Find out all you can about a facility’s security before you rent there. It should include gate access codes, camera surveillance, good lighting, and more.
