Key takeaways

  • A secure lot needs a full fence, 24/7 gate access, cameras and an alarm — and no long-term contract locking you in.
  • Our Tampa lot stores more than RVs: boats, trucks, trailers and cars up to 46+ feet.
  • Pricing is month-to-month, based on length, starting at $145/month.

If you’ve ever pulled into your own driveway and had to squeeze your car around a camper trailer, you already know the problem. Motorhomes, boats, trucks and trailers take up space — and leaving them parked on the street or in a driveway isn’t just inconvenient, it’s a risk. So how do you store an RV in Florida without those headaches? Here’s what to actually look for before you hand over a deposit.

A storage lot is only as good as what’s keeping your investment safe. Anyone can rent you a parking spot. Fewer places can show you a fence line, a gate log and a camera feed.

What a Secure RV Storage Lot Should Have

  • A fully fenced perimeter. This sounds basic, but it’s the first thing to confirm. An open lot next to a busy road isn’t storage, it’s a parking lot with a sign.
  • Controlled gate access, available any time. Look for 24/7 gate access, ideally through something more secure than a shared code — Bluetooth-based entry tied to your phone means only you get in, and there’s a record of when.
  • Cameras and an alarm system. Visible security cameras and an active alarm deter anyone thinking about trying something, and give you a record if something ever does happen.
  • No long-term contract trapping you in. Storage needs change. Month-to-month terms should be the standard, not a premium option.
  • Room for what you actually own. A lot that only fits 28-foot travel trailers doesn’t help if you’re hauling a 42-foot Class A. Confirm the lot can handle your rig’s real length before you show up with it.

RV, Boat & Vehicle Storage for More Than Just RVs

A lot of storage facilities only think in terms of RVs. We don’t. Our Tampa lot handles motorhomes, camper vans, trailers and fifth wheels, plus boats, trucks, work trailers and cars — anything up to 46+ feet. The lot is fully fenced with 24/7 Bluetooth gate access, cameras and an alarm system, and we don’t lock you into a long-term contract. Store it for a month or store it for years; it’s your call.

A Few Tips Before You Drop It Off

Whatever lot you choose, a little prep goes a long way toward keeping your rig in the same shape you left it:

  • Give it a once-over first. Photograph the exterior and note the mileage or engine hours, so you have a clear record of its condition going in.
  • Disconnect the battery (or hook up a battery tender) so you’re not starting the season with a dead one.
  • Check your tires. Properly inflated tires handle long stretches of sitting much better than underinflated ones.
  • Clean it out, and double-check the water and drain valves are shut. Food, trash and anything that smells like food invites pests.

Good to know

  • 24/7 Bluetooth gate access, cameras and an alarm system — fully fenced lot
  • No long-term contracts; store month-to-month for as long as you need
  • RVs, boats, trucks, trailers and cars up to 46+ ft all welcome on the same lot
  • Near the I-4/I-75 junction for easy drop-off and pickup
  • Active and retired military and first responders get 10% off storage

We’re a family-owned business sitting right near the I-4/I-75 junction, which makes dropping off and picking up easy whether you’re headed to the Gulf, the Keys, or just across town. We also know storage is only part of what we do — we run an active RV rental fleet and a no-dealer-fee consignment sales program, so we understand what it actually takes to keep a motorhome, trailer or boat road-ready while it sits. A secure, well-run lot is also one of the easiest ways to protect your resale value, which is exactly the kind of thing the National Insurance Crime Bureau recommends to cut down on theft risk.

Common Questions Before You Book

Quick answers to help you book with confidence.

What's the minimum rental period?

Our minimum rental is 1 day, though this can vary by vehicle and season. Reach out and we'll work with your schedule.

Are pets allowed?

Dogs are welcome! We charge an additional cleaning fee to cover the extra prep needed after pet-friendly rentals.

What's your cancellation policy?

30+ days before pickup: Full refund of nightly rental amount, less the service fee.
8–29 days: 50% responsibility for remaining nightly rental days.
7 days or fewer: 100% of nightly rental amount.

Add-ons, delivery, prep fees, and protection packages are always 100% refundable.

What's included with every rental?

Every rental includes the RV basics — sewage hose, fresh water hose, and power cord. Most of our fleet is owner-consigned so vehicles come fairly barebones, but we offer add-on packages for just about everything: bedding, kitchen kits, camp chairs, and more.

Do you deliver across Florida?

Yes — we deliver our RVs statewide across Florida. Delivery fees are based on distance from our Tampa headquarters. Popular destinations include Sebring International Raceway, Daytona, Orlando-area campgrounds, the Florida Keys, and Florida State Parks. Mention your destination during booking and we'll quote delivery.

How many people can your RVs sleep?

Our fleet sleeps from 5 up to 10 across motorhomes (Class A, B, and C), travel trailers, and fifth wheels. Most family-sized units sleep 6–8. Class C motorhomes feature cab-over bunks — a kid-sized sleep area above the driver's cab. Use the Sleeps filter in the booking widget above to see units that match your group size.

Do you offer discounts on longer rentals?

Yes — for rentals of 7 days or more, call (813) 802-9285 for special long-trip pricing. Long-trip rates aren't shown in the online booking widget; we'll quote them by phone.
