I tried Yahoo and AOL search engines but all the results are worthless and not in FLORIDA. Is Yellow Pages for different towns only solution?

Help!

Check for storage lots or self storage.
This is the exact reason it took us so long to get a TT. We had no place to store it and would have had to pay an arm and a leg to store it. Now, since we moved, I'm in the process of making my parking space a full hookup spot.

I think Google is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Try this search: storage near city, state. Google will return a nice little list of businesses with a map and phone numbers.

If you camp at any of the locations you are interested in I would suggest you talk to those campgrounds who may have some sources for storage.

We had the same difficulty but finally pulled out the old-fashioned paper Yellow Pages, then called every single storage facility even if RV storage wasn't listed in their ad.

While making a bunch of calls one really nice woman at one of the storage places knew someone who knew someone and was going to make some calls for us. She called later that evening with a perfect storage spot for us just outside the community we live in.

It may seem strange but sometimes the Internet isn't the solution. Oh and begging and sounding desperate helps.

Good Luck with your search.

GOOGLE RV/Boat/Self Storage for your City/Area and state.
For example, when I found mine, I GOOGLED- Phoenix, AZ, RV Storage.

We use the local KOA. It's secure (fenced and locked) and not too far away.

Yellow pages or drive around and look. There are several within a few miles of me, but only a couple show up online.
