What people say about renting covered boat storage on Neighbor
Verified Review
"Richard took great care of my vehicle and was an amazing host. I was hesitant to use Neighbor to store my vehicle while I was traveling abroad for an unkown number of months and I am so happy with the experience. Exceptional host for anyone needing to fly out of SJO and leave a vehicle!"

"As a college student, I needed somewhere to store all of my possessions each summer break. Valeria’s place was so great that I kept coming back every year. Once I was even offered a big bag of peaches from her garden (so this is totally a paid review). She’s super quick to respond and has always been flexible when I needed it. *disclaimer: she never mentioned reviews to me- don’t take this down."

Types of Boat Storage
Storage options in Oakland, California offer boat owners many benefits. Renters should consider various storage types to best suit their needs.
- Indoor: Keeping a boat in a private garage provides protection from the elements and may also include 24/7 security.
- Outdoor: Parking a boat in a lot may be a more affordable option, but it can be less secure and exposed to the elements.
- Covered: A carport can provide shelter from the sun and rain while also limiting access to the boat.
Choosing Boat Storage
Choosing a covered storage unit for your boat or watercraft in Oakland, California requires careful consideration. Here are some of the factors to consider:
- Safety – Make sure the storage facility has the right security features to keep your boat safe, such as a fence or gate with a secure lock.
- Size – Look for a space that can comfortably fit your boat and trailer.
- Convenience – Consider the proximity of the storage facility to your home or other launching sites.
- Climate – Check to make sure the space is well-ventilated and that your boat is covered from the elements.
- Access – Find out if you will be able to access the storage unit at any time or if it has restrictions on hours.
Climate Considerations
When looking to rent covered boat storage in Oakland, California, one should consider the climate and weather of the city. During the peak summer months, the average high temperature can reach as high as 80F and the average low during the peak winter months can dip to as low as 45F. Covered storage for boats and other watercraft provides several benefits over indoor storage. It helps protect the craft from the elements, such as rain and sun, providing a more stable environment. Covered storage helps regulate the temperature, which increases the lifespan of the boat's components. Additionally, using protective covers and removing all excess moisture can help protect the craft from the dust and debris that can accumulate in storage facilities.
