Indoor parking ideas?

[sandra74]

Hi all, we are looking at getting a GMC next month but, minor detail, we live in NYC. We had an option to park it at a friend’s company’s hangar but that just fell through. Any interesting or creative ideas? It can of course be further out (Manhattan is not all that conducive to GMC parking ) as we have a car and are good driving an hour or two to get to it. Thanks for any advice!

Indoor RV storage near New York City is limited but available, primarily through secured self-storage facilities in outer boroughs or specialized facilities further upstate. Top options include Safeguard Self Storage (Hollis), StorQuest (Long Beach), and Extra Space Storage locations, which offer covered or indoor drive-up spaces to protect against harsh weather.

Key Considerations

• Space Limitations: Indoor, enclosed spaces (often 10x16 to 10x23 or larger) are limited near the city center.
• Security: Most facilities feature 24-hour surveillance and gated access.
• Pricing: Options range from 12-month contracts for private bays to more flexible short-term leases.

For large motorhomes, specialized, higher-clearance indoor storage may require driving further into the Hudson Valley or New Jersey.

Thank you! Yes, that’s what I found too but wanted to check if there were any other considerations or creative ideas. We will look at all these options as I understand indoor storage is recommended. Or are breathable covers an option too? (If outdoor parking).

Covers are available but they're relatively expensive and the ones I've seen don't fit very well.

If a temporary canopy is allowed and if deep snow isn't a factor, I've found the King Canopy 18x27' works great. Costs about the same as a breathable cover, much easier to use. Needs to be correctly anchored to the ground.

A cover is a definite possibility, but climate controlled indoor storage would be ideal, at least in your area. You would have to thoroughly winterize the coach if you plan to store it outside, blowing all the water out of the lines and adding RV antifreeze etc. It could be stored outside without a cover too.
