I would appreciate some guidance I have just purchased an R-pod 177while at my summer home in MN.  I will be  trailering it to my winter/fall home in coastal NC in Sept. I have room for storage of the unit on my MN property in the summer but I'll need some sort of storage unit in NC since I live in a condo & they won't let me store it on the grounds.  It seems that nearly all self storage units in the area have ceilings & garage doors lower than the 10 ft. I would need to accommodate the unit. Several have outdoor units or some with a stall like roof.  Is there any risk to storing the unit in the open due to the salty atmosphere near the ocean?  Thanks.

 I am sure that someone will be along to answer your question soon.  Congratulations on your purchase.  Where do you go in NC?   We rent a house in  South Nags Head every year.  In addition, we are thinking of taking the pod to a campground on Hatteras Island in November ---Ocean Waves, I believe.   Are you at all familiar with this campground?

Maybe you can find a storage place inland a little.  Check the internet for some.

Terry, I've been looking on the internet for about a month. I have been to the outer banks of NC but haven't yet brought the camper there.  We're actually a good ways south of Hatteras, in Southport which is between Wilmington & Myrtle Beach.

I don't know if you'll have much luck on the internet.  At least, you wouldn't around here, anyway.  Most of the storage lots here are mom and pop outfits that rely on a roadside sign or word-of-mouth to bring in customers.

You may have some luck by calling a few dealers in the area and asking if they know of any local storage lots.

Also you might check some of the RV Campgrounds, some have storage areas.

Off season I have a freind who stores their camper at a camp ground.  During the season he is pulling it all over the place.

I should have mentioned exactly what I was thinking.  Most towns have a web site showing the business that they have and phone numbers.  You might luck out.
