The price can range depending on the size of cover you need, but a cover is worth every penny. A motorhome cover will prevent rust and the general exterior of the vehicle.
Why should I get a motorhome cover?
If you want to preserve your motorhomes life then investing in a storage cover will definately add years to your motorhome. If you don't use your motorhome all year round then covering your motorhome up in the Winter months is a must. If you dont have a garage large enough, or a sheltered space that you could use then the best option would be using a motorhome storage cover. We also recommend using a storage cover if you and your motorhome are situated near the sea for long periods of time as the salt in the sea breze will damage the exterior.
What will happen if i dont have a motorhome cover?
By not protecting your motorhome with a cover you are allowing natures elements to gradually effect the appearence of your beloved motorhome. For example:
- Sunlight will fade the interior and exterior
- Over exposed to bad weather could lead to rusting
- Build up of leaves and dirt
- Risk of the inside getting damp and mouldy
- The windscreen and windows risk being scratched
Will it damage my motorhome?
NO, motorhome storage covers are specially designed to protect and preserve your motorhome/caravan. They have added features that give all the protection needed for your motorhome to withstand the British weather. For example, it has fleece lined panels to protect the windscreen and windows from getting scratched. The inside of the cover is a very soft and durable fabric that will not scratch your motorhome, whereas the outside is a strong canvas like material that is UV protected and waterproof.
