For anyone who stores your enclosed trailer outside. Do you put a cover on it? Any good sources? Is it hard to get on the trailer for 1 person?

We have a 32ft Pace and we can't really store it inside anymore. I want to make sure we keep it covered/nice so I am searching for options. Just hoping someone here covers their trailer. Perhaps folks back east do because of snow/etc?

We just put a tarp over the top and bungy it down. I live in the northeast where wind and snow are fierce but it does the trick. Get a thicker mill tarp the blue thin ones don't last long. Also Duck tape the bungee pieces that are metal to keep them from rubbing on the trailer in the wind.

Yeah I know a tarp is kinda white trashy for some of you but it's cheap and does the trick

If people are interested, I can have some custom covers made up. I can do heavy mil spec vinyl, woven poly, or whatever else people want.

If you tarp it be aware you're trapping moisture which will cause it to rust prematurely.

Better to use an outdoor, breathable RV cover if you feel so inclined.

Unless like many enclosed trailers it has aluminum roof, with plywood underneath and galvanized steel frame.

No cover, at least not in the last 20 years.
A good cleaning and a coat of wax before putting it away has worked for me.
I also leave roof vents open so the trailer can breath.
Over inflating tires a bit will keep them from flat spotting.
If you have a'" walk on roof" cleaning it on a regular basis is also a good idea.
Check the sealant around any roof openings at least once a year and refresh if necessary.
Leave yourself some" post it notes" as reminders.

Plywood rots.

Also not good to park in vegetation/on grass. On pavement best, gravel second best.

Why is that not good?

Mine is parked on grass all year long...

moisture from the grass munches on the underside, far more so if covered and the watwer is trapped. This goes for cars too.

You could get an outdoor car capsule to put it in. What about the carport things they well that us use conduit to build? I think Pegasus sells those.
