When deer season ends and winter sets in, many campers pack up until spring. If you’re a seasonal camper, storing your RV properly is one of the best ways to protect your investment and make sure it’s ready to go when warmer weather returns. Glendale Valley offers convenient RV storage options right here on site, so you don’t have to worry about hauling your camper long distances or finding space at home. Here are some tips to keep your RV safe and well-maintained during the off-season.
Tips for preparing your RV for winter storage
Cover your RV
Use a breathable RV cover to shield it from snow, ice, and debris. Avoid tarps, which can trap moisture and cause damage.
Clean inside and out
Wash the exterior to remove dirt, sap, and road salt. Inside, wipe down surfaces, empty the refrigerator, and remove food to prevent pests.
Winterize the plumbing
Drain all tanks, blow out water lines, and add RV antifreeze as recommended. This protects pipes and tanks from freezing and cracking.
Check the roof and seals
Inspect for cracks, loose seals, or damage that could let in moisture. Addressing issues now prevents leaks while your RV is in storage.
Protect your tires
Inflate tires to the proper pressure and, if possible, place your RV on blocks to reduce wear. Covering the tires can also help prevent sun and weather damage.
Disconnect the battery
Remove and store the battery in a cool, dry place. If you leave it connected, check it periodically to ensure it holds a charge.
