Hi all, we've been in the process of looking for, and reading up on all things RV and 5th wheels specifically... we've found the one we like and can handle with our Duramax - a 2010 Cougar 324RLB.
This 36'4" unit will just fit next to our house, but we are on a very steep hill, which I would have to back up for about 300' up hill, and the street is also very narrow (one lane, plus parked car)... so backing it up may not be feasible.
If so, what should we be looking at in terms of cost for parking it in a storage facility, or a private lot, and what concerns should we be considering?
Thanks!

Find a seasonal campground for a hair more than storage its safer and you can still use it. Happy trails!

Thanks, approximately how much would that be? We live in So California... cost seems very high in some areas... we do have a neighbor a couple of blocks down on flat ground who provides RV storage, but is full right now... I just want to get an idea of what we should be expecting to pay so as not to get ripped off ;-)

Unfortunately, since you live in So. California, you're gonna pay through the teeth! We pay $25/mo. to store ours here in Kansas.

I stored our 5th wheel and our current MH at a local lot near our home for $60/month (Cdn). It's a spot on crushed stone and has a 30-amp electric post that I share with a couple other rvers when we need it.

$150 a Year for a secured, fenced lot in the middle of a military base.
Most in this area are $25-$35 a month, I did look at a covered storage for $85 a month, but didn't like the area it was in and lack of security.
I would try my best to keep it at home...I wish I could.
