No Winterizing, No Worries: How Indoor Storage Cuts Costs

By Jordan Austin • September 24, 2025

If you’ve ever winterized an RV, boat, or trailer, you know it’s no small task. Between draining systems, sealing vents, and buying antifreeze, it’s a time-consuming process that can still leave your vehicle vulnerable to Idaho’s harsh winters. But what if you could skip all that — and save money doing it? The True Cost of Winterizing Let’s break it down: Professional winterization: $300–$600 per vehicle DIY supplies: $100–$200 (plus your time) Potential damage from improper storage: $1,000+ in repairs Now compare that to indoor, climate-controlled storage: No need to winterize water systems No risk of freezing, mold, or sun damage No spring surprises or repair bills Quick, Easy, and Worry-Free Indoor storage means you drive in, park, and walk away. No draining tanks. No crawling under trailers. No guessing if you did it right. At Advanced RV & Boat Storage , we make it simple. Our facility is the only indoor, climate-controlled storage option in Coeur d’Alene — and we’re built for high-value vehicles. Special Offer: Reserve Before Year-End If you reserve your unit before December 31st, you’ll lock in our base rate of $100/month* — a $250 value compared to other facilities. That’s serious savings for serious protection. Reserve your space today and skip the winterizing stress. Your vehicle — and your wallet — will thank you. *If your vehicle is 20 feet or shorter , you’ll lock in a flat rate of $100/month through 2027 —no surprises, no seasonal spikes. For anything over 20 feet (like larger RVs, motorhomes, or boats), we simply add $5 per additional foot to keep things fair and flexible.
