How to Identify the Right RV Storage Facility in Hill City

Need to find an RV storage facility in Hill City? We’ve got you covered. RVs are the perfect way for your family to explore the state parks and natural wonders of South Dakota – and the rest of the United States, too.

But when you’re home from your adventures, finding a convenient place to store your RV can be a real challenge. RVs are often too large to store in your driveway or on your street. You may even live in a neighborhood with a strict HOA that doesn’t allow you to store your RV on your property.

That’s why professional RV storage facilities are the best and most affordable way to keep your RV safe and secure – and off your property until it’s time for your next road trip adventure. Ask yourself the following questions to help you find the perfect RV storage facility in the Hill City area.

Does the Facility Offer RV Storage?

One of the first things you should look for is whether a storage facility offers storage for large vehicles. Not all self-storage facilities in the area offer storage for vehicles as large as RVs. Finding places that do can help you start to narrow down which facility meets your needs and budget.

Uncovered outdoor storage is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for a convenient and affordable way to store your RV off your own property. You’ll have a large designated space in a lot to park your RV. It’s a great choice for vehicles of any size and can even fit the largest Class A RVs.

One thing to be aware of is that outdoor storage can expose your RV to weather. We recommend investing in an RV cover to prevent damage, especially if you’re planning to store long-term. A cover will help protect your vehicle from sun and storms.

Reno Gulch Self Storage offers affordable uncovered outdoor storage that can fit vehicles up to 40 feet long. We also offer 10-foot by 20-foot indoor units that can fit your smallest trailers and pop-up campers. While our indoor units may not be able to fit large RVs, they’re the perfect place to keep your smaller vehicles like dirt bikes, ATVs and jet skis.

Where is the Facility Located?

Location is a huge consideration for RV owners looking to store their vehicles. Keep in mind the facility’s proximity to your home, major highways and favorite destinations. Fortunately, Hill City is one of the best places in South Dakota to store your vehicle, as we’re the gateway to so many fun adventures.

If you enjoy exploring all the natural beauty and popular destinations that South Dakota has to offer, you’ll love Reno Gulch Self Storage’s convenient location. You’ll have easy access to the Black Hills, Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore and more. We’re less than two miles south of Main Street Hill City, making us a convenient choice for residents of Custer, Keystone and Rapid City.

What are the Facility’s Access Hours?

When will you be able to access your RV? Make sure to look at a facility’s access hours and determine if they match up with your needs.

Reno Gulch Self Storage is conveniently open from 7 AM to 10 PM. If you need help, our friendly, helpful staff is in-office six days a week.

How Long Will I Need RV Storage?

Are you planning on storing your RV for a few months while you’re not doing any travel? Or are you planning on storing your RV long-term? Look into each facility’s lease terms. Will you have to lock into a year-long lease or is the facility flexible, offering month-to-month leases?

How Secure is the Facility?

Safety of your RV is important. Consider what security features a facility offers. Locally-owned businesses or facilities that have on-site management offer an extra layer of security. As well, look for a facility in a safe area. Fortunately, Hill City is a relatively safe area to begin with, making it an ideal location to store your RV.

How Much Will Storage Cost?

Cost is an important consideration when you’re looking for RV storage. You don’t want to break the bank to store your vehicle.

However, price shouldn’t be the only deciding factor. Keep in mind the services, features and reputation of any facility you’re considering. These add value that can outweigh saving a few dollars.

You may even be able to get a good deal when you start storing your RV. Some facilities offer introductory rates to new customers or those who sign onto a long lease. Contact a potential facility and ask about their pricing to get a better sense of how much you’ll pay each month.

Read the terms and conditions of a rental agreement. Make sure you understand the facility’s late fee policy, and see if the facility has any unexpected fees listed in the fine print.

Does the Facility Have Good Reviews?

To get a true sense of a facility, read a business’s online reviews and testimonials to see what previous customers have to say about their experience. A facility with a high rating and a long history of good reviews on Google Reviews is a good sign you’ve found a quality facility.

Contact a Potential Facility and Make Your Decision

Before renting storage, we recommend contacting a potential facility. You’ll be able to ask about available units, prices and deals, as well as ask any questions you still have. Talking to staff can tell you a lot about a facility. Friendly and knowledgeable staff help make for a stress-free storage experience.
