Indoor RV & Boat Storage Near Lake Arlington: What Fits in a 12×30 Unit

If you’re out on Lake Arlington most weekends—or hauling gear around North Texas—one question always comes up:

Where do you store everything when you’re not using it?

At Store Here in Pantego, we don’t offer outdoor parking for RVs and boats. But we do have something most local facilities don’t: secure, enclosed 12×30 units that give your gear serious protection from sun, storms, and neighborhood restrictions.

So what can you actually fit inside a 12×30 unit? Let’s break it down.

What Fits in a 12×30 Storage Unit?

A 12×30 unit offers 360 square feet of covered space, with roll-up doors and drive-up access. If you’re storing a vehicle, that usually translates to about 28–29 feet of usable length, depending on hitch clearance.

Common vehicles and gear that fit:

  • Travel trailers up to 28 ft (single or dual axle)
  • Class B and some Class C RVs (under 10 ft tall)
  • Pontoon boats, bass boats, and center consoles under ~25 ft
  • Jet skis on double trailers
  • Flatbed utility trailers and gear haulers
  • ATVs, UTVs, or golf carts with extra storage space

What probably won’t fit: Large Class A RVs, oversized wake boats with towers, or fifth-wheel trailers taller than 10 ft.

Why Enclosed Storage Just Makes Sense

Most outdoor parking lots around Lake Arlington leave your investment exposed to sun, hail, and everything in between. Our customers often switch to indoor storage after one too many weather-related repairs—or after a neighborhood HOA hands out one too many warnings.

With a 12×30 drive-up unit, you get:

  • Protection from Texas weather—sun, rain, and wind
  • More privacy and security than an open lot
  • Extra space for tools, life jackets, coolers, and camping gear
  • Flexible access hours from 6am to 9pm daily

It’s also easier to pack strategically when your gear is stored in an enclosed space—not stacked next to someone else’s trailer or RV.

How Close Are We to Lake Arlington?

We’re just a short drive from the water—close enough to swing by between trips. Here’s the typical drive time:

  • Bowman Springs Park: 10 minutes
  • Arkansas Lane Boat Ramp: 12 minutes
  • Richard Simpson Park: ~15 minutes

That’s why many of our renters live in nearby neighborhoods like Dalworthington Gardens or Woodland West. Some even use our units to keep fishing gear and small watercraft ready to roll—without cluttering their garage.

Boat & gear storage near Lake Arlington is more than just parking—it’s peace of mind between weekends.

Storing More Than Just Vehicles

Our 12×30 units aren’t just for trailers and boats. They’re also popular with:

  • Outdoor businesses with seasonal equipment
  • Families storing kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards
  • Renters transitioning between homes or remodels

If you’re not sure whether your vehicle or setup will fit, give us a call. We’ll measure your specs and give you a straight answer—no upsell, no runaround.
