THE 5 BEST RV STORAGE UNITS IN TORONTO

An RV (recreational vehicle) is like a home away from home, but during off-seasons or when space becomes limited on your property, storing them can become a concern. This is where RV storage units come in handy, typically offered by self-storage facilities with indoor and outdoor options to accommodate various sizes, from small teardrop trailers to 40-foot motorhomes. These storage solutions are designed with security measures to conveniently protect your RV from harsh weather conditions and potential damage caused by wildlife or even humans. Here are some of our favorites in the city!

How We Chose the Best RV Storage Units in Toronto

How Much Does RV Storage Cost in Toronto?

The typical cost of RV storage per month ranges from $200 to $350 for outdoor and uncovered parking units. Indoor and climate-controlled units typically have higher rates, starting at $500.

Security: We chose companies with reliable surveillance and alarm systems, fire protection, gated fences, proper lighting, and on-site staff.
Accessibility: We considered the proximity of their locations from accessible streets and central hubs, as well as the extent of their operating hours to accommodate different schedules.
Storage Options: We shortlisted companies that offer a variety of parking units to suit different types of RVs. Indoor options with climate control are a plus.
Maintenance: We inspected their facilities based on cleanliness and proper upkeep, such as evenly paved surfaces and well-maintained grassy areas.
Customer Service: We assessed their staff based on their responsiveness to customer concerns and their assistance in the booking process.
Insurance Coverage: We checked if they offer insurance options to protect RVs in case of any damage or theft.
Lease Terms: We assessed the companies’ contract terms based on the clarity of details and the flexibility of terms, including rental duration, cancellation fees, late payments, etc.

Access Storage is Canada’s largest self-storage chain with a coast-to-coast presence, boasting over 200 locations. Established in 1998 in Scarborough, the company primarily expanded through property expansion and acquiring storage businesses across the country.

XYZ Storage is a premier locally-owned business with five strategic locations across the GTA. Originally established as All Canadian Self Storage by owners John Donald and Hal Spradling, they have been serving the community since their inception in 1997.

Indoor units can reach sizes of up to 400 square feet, allowing for the storage of smaller RVs despite the limited ceiling height. These units still benefit from the facility’s covered drive-thru feature. Larger RVs, however, can be parked in regular (8’x16′) and large (8’x32′) outdoor slots. Additionally, the facilities are equipped with CCTV cameras, security features, and intercoms, facilitating easy communication with staff members both inside and outside the building.

Over the past 20 years, this family-owned business has expanded to over 30 locations throughout Ontario and Atlantic Canada.

While it’s been less than two years since the Leaside branch opened its doors, it has already amassed a substantial following. This is attributed to its prime location and industry-standard features, such as covered docks, ample ceiling heights, automated systems, and incredibly helpful staff.

While they’re limited to outdoor units, the parking lot is impeccably maintained with evenly paved and elevated surfaces, with efficient drainage, and devoid of potholes. Similar attention to detail is evident in the spacious parking slots and circulation paths, which are well-lit during nighttime hours and protected by round-the-clock surveillance and secure gates.

Clean, bright and secure space in the heart of the city

“Had a great experience leasing a parking space for my camper. Clean, bright, and secure space in the heart of the city. Alisha was awesome and super helpful and understanding. Thank you!” – Jesse Brodlieb, Google Reviews

We were treated like celebrities when we arrived

“We had researched outdoor storage for or RV in the area and found Apple. On April 23rd we picked up our new trailer in London, Ont. and started heading home at 1:30. A quick call to Alisha and she informed us they were open until 4:30. Anyone who drives knows how bad the 401 Eastbound can get.  At 4:25 we were just getting off at Bayview and another quick call to Apple. We explained our scenario and Alisha put our minds at ease as she said she would stay late to accommodate us. We were treated like celebrities when we arrived. We can’t thank Alisha enough for giving up her valuable weekend time to support us. Greatly appreciated…Thank you for the great service.” – Allan Walker, Google Reviews
