Why Local Oversight Matters: The Value of BOG Inspections for Your Stored RVs and Boats

When storing your RV or boat long-term, particularly in a coastal area like Port St. Joe, ensuring that the facility itself is secure and well-maintained is essential. That’s where our Boots on the Ground (BOG) team steps in. The BOG conducts regular inspections to keep the facility running smoothly, giving you peace of mind that your stored vehicle is in a safe environment. Here’s why having local oversight matters when it comes to protecting your investments.

The Role of BOG Inspections

Our BOG team performs weekly checks throughout the Covered Keeper facility, focusing on the structures, security features, and general condition of the grounds. As locals familiar with the area’s unique climate, they are trained to spot early signs of wear or damage that might be overlooked in a standard storage lot. Here’s what they prioritize:

Gate Motors and Security Systems: Ensuring that the entry and exit systems are functional and secure, with cameras, lights, and gate motors working properly.

Covered Stall Structures: Inspecting the structural integrity of covered stalls to protect stored vehicles from the elements. Any signs of wear or damage are promptly reported and addressed.

Cleanliness and Grounds Maintenance: Keeping the facility clean and tidy, with regular lawn maintenance to make sure there are no obstructions and that the grounds look well-kept.

These regular checks help keep the facility in peak condition, allowing you to focus on enjoying your RV or boat without worrying about the security of your storage environment.

Proactive Facility Maintenance Saves Money

For seasonal or absentee owners, regular inspections of the facility can prevent minor issues from becoming costly problems. With the BOG team keeping an eye on the condition of the storage area, potential risks are mitigated quickly, which ultimately protects your RV or boat.

For example:

• A tenant once reported concerns about an uncovered stall. The BOG team quickly inspected and reinforced the structure, preventing damage from an impending storm.

• After a heavy rain season, a minor drainage issue was identified by the BOG and addressed before it affected any nearby storage spaces.

These real-world cases illustrate how proactive oversight of the facility can save tenants from dealing with unexpected repairs or replacements.

Peace of Mind for Absentee Owners

For those who only visit occasionally, knowing that someone is regularly checking on the facility is invaluable. Our BOG team provides same-day reports with photos and videos of any relevant facility updates. If an issue arises, you’ll know about it immediately, allowing you to take action as needed without delay.

How to Take Advantage of BOG Inspections

During move-in, ask about our BOG services and what they include. Our team is here to ensure that the facility remains a safe and well-kept environment for your RV or boat, so you can have complete confidence in your storage experience.
