WHY CHOOSE
Boat Storage
Save on Expensive Marina Storage
If you dry-dock your boat on a trailer, storing it with Public Storage can be less expensive than keeping it at the marina.
Make Your Homeowners Association Happy
If your HOA has restrictions on storing boats at your home, don't worry. You don't need to move, store it at Public Storage.
Clear Out Your Driveway
Even a small boat or trailer can crowd your driveway and block access to the garage. Keep things clear by storing your boat or jet ski with Public Storage instead.
Get Your Boat Whenever You Want
Most Public Storage facilities offer access from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Many facilities also offer 24/7 Access, so you can pick up your boat on your schedule. Just drive in, hitch up, and go.
BOAT STORAGE
Canoes and Kayaks
Canoes and kayaks are large, heavy, and hard to store. If they're fiberglass or plastic, they also need to be kept out of the sun. An enclosed storage unit at Public Storage can help reduce UV damage and free up space at your house.
Trailered Boats
Storing your boat with Public Storage is easy: park your trailer, chock the wheels, and unhitch. Some of our facilities have covered and enclosed spots in case you're worried about sun damage, rain, or snow.
Jet Skis and Small Watercraft
Public Storage has ground-level storage units, so you can back in your trailer, unhitch, and lock up. Your vessel will be out of the elements and ready for the water whenever it's needed.
Paddleboards and Surfboards
Storing boards takes up space. With a ground-level storage unit at Public Storage, you can pull up to your space, drop your boards off, and head home. When you're ready to ride again, just stop by and pick them up.
BENEFITS
Free Up Space at Home
Storing your boat with Public Storage lets you free up space in your driveway, garage, or yard. This can make everyday parking easier and reduce clutter around your property.
Weather Protection and Seasonal Use
Choosing a covered or enclosed space helps reduce the effects of sun, rain, and weather exposure on your boat’s exterior and interior components. Seasonal storage can be a convenient option if you use your boat primarily in certain months of the year.
Convenient Access During Gate Hours
Most Public Storage facilities provide gate access during broad daily hours so you can visit your boat when it fits your schedule. Reviewing the access hours for your preferred location helps ensure you can retrieve or prepare your boat as needed.

PLANNING FOR SEASONAL STORAGE
Flexible Month-to-Month Rentals
Boat storage rentals are month-to-month, giving you flexibility without long-term commitments. You can store your boat during the off-season and adjust space as your boating needs change.
Preparing for Storage Changes
Before placing your boat into storage for the off-season, consider basic maintenance steps such as cleaning your boat, draining fluids where appropriate, and ensuring your battery is properly stored or maintained. These steps can help preserve the condition while in storage.
Label and Organize Boat Gear
If you store boating gear such as life vests, dock lines, anchors, and covers with your vessel or in a nearby unit, consider using labels or shelves to group items. This can help reduce the time spent searching for equipment when you’re preparing to use your boat.

Dedicated Space for Boat Storage
Public Storage offers a variety of boat storage options so you can find a space that fits your vessel, whether it’s a small runabout, a mid-size cruiser, or a larger yacht. With options ranging from outdoor spaces in lots to covered and enclosed units where available, you can choose a solution that matches your size requirements and access needs.
Outdoor Boat Storage
Outdoor storage spaces provide an open-air spot in a fenced facility that’s suitable for trailers, boats on trailers, pontoons, and other watercraft. These spaces allow easy access during gate hours and are a flexible option for seasonal or frequent use.
Covered Boat Storage
Covered options feature overhead protection that helps shield your boat from direct sun exposure, rain, and other weather conditions. While not fully enclosed, covered storage can help reduce wear related to prolonged exposure to the elements.
Enclosed Boat Storage Units
Enclosed units function like a ground-level garage for your boat. Enclosed storage can be especially helpful if you plan to keep your vessel in storage for a longer period or want to shield it from sun, snow, and rain.
Personal Watercraft and Small Vessels
Many Public Storage locations can accommodate personal watercraft such as jet skis, small sailboats, and kayaks when stored on trailers. Smaller motorboats also fit well in outdoor or covered spaces.
Specialty and Oversized Watercraft
Some Public Storage facilities provide storage for larger vessels, including cruisers, pontoon boats, and yachts.
