Why Covered RV & Boat Storage Matters More Than Ever in August

August in Port St. Joe might still feel like peak summer, but for RV and boat owners, it’s the start of something else entirely—storm season prep and post-travel downtime. Whether you’re heading back north or staying local, it’s the right time to protect your vehicle for the weeks (or months) ahead.

The Problem With Leaving Your Vehicle Exposed

Florida’s Gulf Coast is beautiful, but it’s also punishing on equipment left outside. From UV rays to salt air to high winds, your RV or boat faces serious wear when stored uncovered:

  • Fading paint and cracked seals from intense sun
  • Corrosion from humidity and salty air
  • Storm debris that can cause physical damage during summer squalls

Even in calm weather, long-term exposure adds up quickly. That’s why more owners are switching to covered storage—especially during August and September.

How Covered Keeper Helps

At Covered Keeper, we specialize in RV and boat storage only—nothing else. Our entire facility is designed around the needs of seasonal travelers, full-timers, and weekend adventurers alike.

Every space is 14×40 feet, built to accommodate everything from trailers and fifth-wheels to center consoles and Class A motorhomes. Need power? Covered spaces come with power outlets, and we have water access for all stalls.

Other perks include:

  • 24/7 keypad access
  • Bright lighting and security cameras
  • Gated entry—no padlocks needed
  • Easy online or phone-based booking
  • 1-month minimum, no long-term contracts

Whether you’re storing short-term between trips or bunkering down for hurricane season, you’ll have room, protection, and peace of mind.
