The average cost to store a boat in Blacksburg is $85 each month.
The ideal size of boat storage depends. Class A boats (typically fishing dinghies) should be able to fit in a 10 X 15 storage unit, while Class 2 boats should have at least a 20 X 40 storage unit. If you're renting covered or indoor boat storage, remember to measure the boat's clearance.
You can find places to store a boat near you, from Grissom - Highland to Farmview - Ramble. Enter your zip code, use the map, or access the list view to find convenient boat storage throughout your neighborhood.
Here are the amenities you'll find:
Read this advice for storing a boat long-term:
If storing outside, use a vented boat wrap or boat cover, which can typically be found at your local boating retailer.
You should winterize your boat, as Blacksburg winter temps can get below 35. First, flush and drain the engine, and add lubricant to keep it from corroding. If you're keeping gas in the tank, add a fuel stabilizer. If not, drain the fuel lines. Replace the engine filters and check clamps, belts, hoses, and the oil. Drain the coolant and use antifreeze. Clean and wipe down the inside and outside of the boat to remove moisture. Finally, plug exhaust outlets to prevent rodents from entering.
Try not to store a boat outside in the winter. Blacksburg's high humidity in the winter months can allow mold and mildew to develop in your boat. If you need to rent outdoor boat storage, use a vented boat cover. Indoor, climate-controlled boat storage offers the highest amount of protection from damp air.
Insurance is highly suggested for boat storage in Blacksburg. Oftentimes, homeowner's or renter's insurance should cover any damage or theft while your boat is being stored, but check your policy to confirm.
