Owning a boat is a great way to enjoy time on the water, but storing it at home can quickly become a hassle. Between your driveway, garage, and yard, there’s often not enough space to keep a boat without giving up valuable room—or dealing with HOA complaints.
That's where offsite boat storage comes in.
At Highway 75 Parking, we offer secure, spacious, and convenient boat storage solutions that help you free up room at home and protect your boat year-round.
In this guide, we’ll break down the benefits of offsite storage and why it’s a smart choice for boat owners looking to simplify their lives.
Why Home Boat Storage Isn’t Always Ideal
At first, it might seem convenient to keep your boat at home. But over time, you may run into these common problems:
Limited space: Boats can take up your entire driveway or block access to the garage.
Neighborhood restrictions: Many HOAs and city ordinances prohibit outdoor boat storage.
Exposure to the elements: Without a covered area, your boat is at risk of weather damage.
Inconvenience: Towing in and out of tight spaces adds stress before and after every trip.
Trying to squeeze your boat into your home setup can cause damage—not only to the boat but to your landscaping, vehicles, and peace of mind.
The Benefits of Offsite Boat Storage
Here are the top reasons more boat owners are choosing offsite storage with Highway 75 Parking:
1. More Room at Home
When you move your boat offsite, you instantly regain space in your driveway or yard. That means:
Easier parking for daily vehicles
A cleaner, safer look for your home
Space for projects, guests, or outdoor activities
You’ll be surprised how much more functional your property becomes without the bulk of a boat in the way.
2. Secure Protection
We know your boat is a big investment. That’s why our facility offers:
24/7 video surveillance
Gated access with security codes
Well-lit, fenced storage areas
On-site management
This level of protection greatly reduces the risk of theft, vandalism, or accidental damage—something most home storage can’t offer.
3. Weather Damage Prevention
UV rays, rain, wind, and even falling branches can wear down your boat if left exposed. At Highway 75 Parking, our designated storage areas are designed to protect your boat from the elements—helping extend its life and reduce your maintenance costs.
4. Convenient Access When You Need It
Offsite storage doesn’t mean out of reach. Our facility offers:
Easy highway access
Wide lanes for towing and maneuvering
Flexible hours so you can pick up your boat on your schedule
When you’re ready for the lake, getting on the road is fast and stress-free.
How to Choose the Right Boat Storage Facility
When picking a storage location, not all options are equal. Here are some key features to look for:
Security: Make sure the facility is gated, monitored, and well-lit.
Space: Ensure there’s enough room to store and move your boat without tight turns or tricky backing.
Access: Look for a location that’s close to major roads or waterways for easy hauling.
Surface: Paved or gravel lots are better than grass or dirt, which can become muddy or damage your trailer.
Customer support: Choose a business that’s easy to contact and available when you need help.
Highway 75 Parking checks all of these boxes—and more.
Types of Boat Storage Options
Depending on your needs and your boat’s size, you may choose from:
Outdoor uncovered storage: A budget-friendly option with basic protection
Covered storage: Offers a roof overhead to shield your boat from sun and rain
Indoor storage: Fully enclosed protection (ideal for high-end or sensitive vessels)
At Highway 75 Parking, we specialize in outdoor and covered boat storage options to give you flexibility without breaking the bank.
Cost of Offsite Storage vs. Home Repairs
You might wonder if offsite storage is worth the monthly cost. But consider this:
Replacing a sun-damaged boat cover: $300+
Repairing hull cracks from ice or moisture: $1,000+
Fixing trailer damage from sitting in mud: $500+
HOA fines or code violations: Varies—but costly and stressful
With affordable monthly rates, storing your boat with us can help you avoid these expenses—and headaches—altogether.
Tips for Storing Your Boat Offsite
To get the most out of your storage experience, keep these tips in mind:
Clean your boat before storing to avoid mildew and pests
Remove valuables and electronics from the cabin
Disconnect the battery if storing long-term
Use a boat cover for added protection
Check your trailer tires and pressure before hauling
Visit regularly to inspect your boat and make sure it’s secure
Following these steps helps keep your boat in top shape—so it’s ready to go when you are.
