How to check if your RV storage space is secure enough
Storage security is a very important topic when trying to find a place to store your RV. A consumer interested in storing their RV should first do their research and verify that their chosen storage facility is adequately secured.
However, if you really want to go the extra mile to keep your vehicle safe, there are small steps you can take. Simple tips that are sure to make you feel extra protected.
Tip #1: Make sure the doors are locked
This may seem much simpler than one expects. However, it is common knowledge that the first thing anyone should do when parking their vehicle anywhere to keep it safe is to lock it. The simple act of pressing the lock button may not stop a professional thief who has come well prepared, but it is enough to keep away many people who would like to cause damage to your vehicle.
Tip #2: Have you ever heard of a steering wheel lock?
One of the best things a customer can do is put a steering wheel lock on the steering wheel of their RV. A steering wheel lock is a rod-like device that can be adjusted to fit the steering wheel and keep it from moving. The device is very simple and is produced by many companies. These types of devices can be a bit inconvenient to use, they are a very big deterrent to thieves.
Tip #3: Drain your gas
Another tip that works is to prevent thieves from driving off with your valuable vehicle was to empty the gas tank afterwards before parking your RV. A vehicle can’t run without gas, so any thief who wants to make off with his RV won’t be able to get anywhere.
Tip #4: Tarp
Placing a tarp over your RV will not only protect your vehicle from the elements, but it also deters thieves because thieves want easy access to what they are stealing. Placing a tarp over your RV makes a thief feel like it will take extra time to access the vehicle. Therefore, a dishonest person probably wouldn’t want to mess with an RV with a tarp on it.
There is no way to be absolutely certain that your RV will be safe while in storage. However, if you take small precautions, you can greatly reduce the risk of damage to your valuable vehicle.
