What's actually available
Two facilities in Long Island City handle boat and vehicle storage, with three more nearby if you widen the search. Between them you get one covered option, one indoor option, and one outdoor option, so there is a real choice depending on how much weather protection you want. Public Storage carries a 4.8 rating across 965 reviews and offers covered, indoor, and outdoor spaces. Access Self Storage also rates 4.8, on 318 reviews, and adds climate control to the mix. Neither facility advertises 24/7 gate access, so check the posted hours before you commit. A locked gate at 9 pm is fine for winter storage and frustrating in July.
Covered, indoor, or open air
Indoor is the pick if you care about gelcoat and upholstery. UV does quiet damage to vinyl and canvas over a season, and a roof keeps hail and fallen branches off the hull. Covered sits in the middle: shade and some overhead protection, still open to wind-driven rain. Outdoor is the cheapest path and perfectly workable for a trailer boat you rinse regularly. Whichever you choose, pull the drain plug, tilt the bow up, and loosen the cover so air moves. A battery maintainer beats a dead battery in April. Ask about insurance requirements before you sign; facilities differ on what they want on file.
The neighborhood angle
This is a working waterfront part of Queens, with the Pulaski Bridge and the river close by, so a facility here cuts your tow time if you launch locally. That convenience is the whole argument. Smaller inventory means you should call ahead rather than assume a space is open, especially in fall when everyone hauls out at once. Ask what the gate setup looks like and whether you can get in on a Sunday evening. Look at the lot surface and drainage too. A gravel yard that puddles is worse for a trailer hub than a paved one. Confirm the space fits your beam and tongue length before the first payment.
