What the three Alexandria facilities offer
Every one of the three Alexandria facilities lists covered, indoor, and outdoor boat storage, plus vehicle storage. That range means you can keep a trailer boat under cover, tuck a fiberglass runabout indoors for winter, or leave a jon boat on an open pad. All three have gates open around the clock and lighting on site. Storage Rentals of America adds cameras and a dump station, handy if you trailer in and need to empty tanks or rinse down. One facility also handles trailer storage. Call ahead about hull length limits and whether the indoor bay clears a T-top or radar arch. Those dimensions vary by building, and a tape measure beats a guess.
Picking between them
Public Storage runs two of the three locations, each rated 4.7, with 522 and 417 reviews. Storage Rentals of America is also 4.7 on 316 reviews. Review counts tell you how many boaters have actually been through the gate, so weight the busier locations if you want a track record. Beyond that, visit in person. Walk the aisle your boat would sit in, check the turning room for a trailer, and watch how the gate and lighting feel at dusk. Ask what the facility does about standing water and drainage on outdoor pads, since a hull sitting in a puddle is a hull taking on moisture.
Storing a boat near the Potomac
Alexandria sits on the Potomac, so salt and humidity are part of the deal. Rinse the hull and flush the engine after every run, and let everything dry before you cover it. A cheap cover traps moisture and does more harm than sun alone. Indoor storage sidesteps UV fade and hail, and covered storage splits the difference. If your boat sits for months, pull the battery and keep it on a maintainer, and treat the fuel before you park it. Confirm your insurance covers the boat at a storage address, not just on the water. Check gate hours before you commit, even at a 24/7 site.
