RV & Boat Storage in Sacramento: What You Need to Know Before Parking

Owning an RV, camper, or boat opens the door to weekend escapes and off-grid adventures—but when you’re not on the road or water, where do you park it?

If you live in Sacramento, parking your RV or boat at home isn’t always legal—or practical. That’s where professional storage comes in. Here’s what Sacramento RV and boat owners need to know before parking their vehicles long-term.

Can You Park an RV or Boat at Home in Sacramento?

Before you pull into your driveway, check the fine print. Sacramento’s zoning laws and HOA rules often restrict large vehicle storage:

• Sacramento city code limits street parking for RVs to 72 hours at a time
• Many residential areas prohibit long-term storage of boats or trailers in driveways or side yards
• Homeowners associations (HOAs) can issue fines for visible outdoor vehicle storage

Solution: A licensed storage facility gives you secure, compliant parking—without the risk of citations or complaints.

How to Prep Your RV or Boat for Storage

Before you lock it up for the season, a little prep goes a long way. Follow these steps for a safe and clean return:

RV Storage Checklist:

• Empty and clean all tanks (black, gray, freshwater)
• Disconnect and remove batteries
• Seal vents and windows to prevent pests
• Cover tires to reduce UV damage
• Consider using RV covers for extra weather protection

Boat Storage Checklist:

• Drain the bilge, water tanks, and engine
• Remove valuables, electronics, and safety gear
• Add fuel stabilizer and run the engine briefly
• Cover with a properly fitted tarp or shrink wrap

We also recommend checking your insurance coverage—many policies require specific precautions when storing off-site.
