Open outdoor parking is the cheapest. Covered and indoor storage cost more but keep sun, rain and bird droppings off your hull and upholstery.
What size space do I need for my boat and trailer?
Facilities here list spaces from 20' up to 30' long. Your space has to fit the boat and the trailer, so measure from the trailer tongue to the stern, including the outboard motor or swim platform.
As a rule of thumb, a bass boat or small runabout on its trailer needs about 20' to 25', and most pontoons and bowriders need 25' to 30'.
Can I get covered or indoor boat storage in Orland Park, IL?
The boat spaces on this page are open outdoor parking, starting at $61 a month. For covered or enclosed storage, try a nearby city or call a facility to ask what's coming available.
Covering your boat protects the gelcoat, canvas and electronics from UV damage. That makes a real difference if it'll sit for a season.
Can I keep my boat in a regular storage unit?
A small boat, jet ski or kayak trailer can fit in a 10' x 20' drive-up unit or larger. Check the door width and height with the facility first. For anything bigger, a parking space is usually the better fit.
