Trailer, 5th Wheel and ATV

Your Trailer or 5th Wheel is your home away from home. We understand that storing it in the right hands is important. At Midland RV & Boat Storage, we will eliminate the headache of storing them at your home where it’s susceptible to burglary and unsafe storage conditions.

Storage Check List

Review owner’s manual for engine, LP gas, generator, water heater and sanitation system storage tips.
Remove all perishable food from cabinets.
Turn off refrigerator. Verify all power sources are off by checking 12 volt, 110 volt and LP gas.
Remove all food from the refrigerator. Clean the inside, and leave the door open to ventilate.
Clean rooftop and air conditioner filters, and cover the outside unit.
Clean the interior of the RV. Pull shades, and close blinds.
Turn off the propane cylinders, and cover the regulator.
Cover or tape vents to the furnace and range hood for long-term storage.
Ensure all roof vents and windows are closed. Prevent condensation if necessary by using chemical-type dehumidifiers.
Check tire pressure, and cover the tires, if they will be exposed to the sun.
Inspect roof, body, interior, soft molding and caulking.
Service locks with spray lubricant to prevent rust and freezing.
Remove batteries. Store batteries in an area not subject to freezing, and test them periodically. Charge if necessary.
In motor homes, check all operating fluid levels under the hood, and top off the gasoline tank. Add a fuel stabilizer.
Empty and thoroughly rinse all holding tanks. In winter, all water tanks, lines and pumps should be drained and filled with non-toxic RV antifreeze to keep any remaining water from freezing the system. Never use automobile antifreeze of any kind in your water system!
