Boat & RV Storage

Boat / RV storage is one of the fastest growing segments of the storage industry. Mako has been at the forefront of this activity. Whether you build fully enclosed structures or “roof-only” canopies, our systems can meet your needs.

Enclosed Boat / RV storage is built on the same concept that works for conventional self storage. We just increase steel sizes to accommodate the wider bays and larger doors that Boat / RV storage requires. We can return pricing to you on most projects within 24 hours.

The basic pros and cons of Boat / RV storage are as follows:

PROS
• Customers tend to be long term, resulting in low turnover and high occupancy.
• Management is less intensive (fewer customers, fewer problems).
• Usually less competition for Boat storage.
• Our customers usually become filthy rich and retire in the Virgin Islands.

CONS
• Land intensive (wide driveways are required for access).
• Clientele can be seasonal, depending on location.
• Rental rates are usually lower on a square foot basis than self storage.

In Summary, Boat / RV storage is a booming business that can be combined with conventional self storage or stand alone. As community CCR's increasingly prohibit storage or parking of these leisure vehicles at residences, people will need storage for their expensive toys. Demand for storage currently exceeds supply in most areas, creating tremendous opportunities for wise investors. Mako Steel can help you tap into this thriving market.
