Cheap RV Self Storage in Chicago, IL

Covered RV Storage in Chicago

While it's usually the more expensive option, covered RV storage is the safest, most secure way to store your camper or trailer in Chicago. In most cases, covered storage is simply a parking spot with a roof, however some facilities offer an indoor RV storage option, sometimes referred to as enclosed storage. This type of RV storage is an over-sized version of a traditional storage unit with drive-up access of course.

Uncovered RV Storage Chicago

This RV storage option is basically an open parking space on the storage facility's property, and is the least expensive option for RV storage. Some RV storage facilities in Chicago do have paved parking areas specifically for trailers and campers, but either way your RV will be outdoors and exposed to the elements. If you opt for this storage type we recommend purchasing a good RV cover.

• Measure your RV before you rent your unit to make sure you choose the right size
