Covered and indoor spots
Covered storage is the middle ground: a roof over your rig, but open sides. Five facilities in Tempe offer it, and three go fully indoor. If you're leaving a vehicle for months, indoor is worth the extra cost because it blocks UV and keeps dust off the paint. Extra Space Storage on the list earns 4.9 from over 1,200 reviews, and Public Storage runs a gated, lit facility with covered and indoor options. Ask about ceiling height and whether you can pull through, since tight indoor aisles are where mirrors get broken.
Outdoor and boat options
Six facilities offer outdoor parking, which is the cheapest way to keep a rig in Tempe. The tradeoff is sun. A good cover for the tires and a windshield shade are cheap insurance against cracking. Two facilities handle boats, including Public Storage locations with gated, lit access. If you're storing a boat, check the gate hours before you commit, because only two facilities in town offer 24/7 access. The rest will have you planning launch days around a closing time.
What to check before you sign
Ratings here are high, but reviews only tell you so much. Drive the route you'll actually take and see how tight the turns are with a trailer. Ask about cameras and lighting, since a few facilities list them and most don't. Confirm whether the gate is 24/7 or limited, because two facilities in Tempe are open around the clock and the others aren't. And call your insurance agent before you move the rig, since some policies want to know where it's parked long term.

Questions people ask
How many vehicle storage facilities are in Tempe?
There are 12 vehicle storage facilities in Tempe, with an average rating of 4.7. Five offer covered storage, three have indoor units, and six have outdoor spots. Two facilities can take boats. Only two offer 24/7 gate access, so check hours if you need to get in and out at odd times.
What's the difference between covered and indoor storage?
Covered storage puts a roof over your rig but leaves the sides open, so sun and dust still reach it. Indoor storage is fully enclosed, which blocks UV and keeps the paint and tires out of the weather. Tempe has five covered and three indoor facilities. Indoor costs more, but it's the better pick for long-term parking.
Do I need climate control for an RV in Tempe?
Three facilities in Tempe offer climate-controlled storage, which helps with heat and temperature swings. For a short stay, covered storage is usually enough. For months at a time, climate control protects batteries, electronics, and interior finishes. Ask what temperature range the facility actually holds, since that varies.
How do I protect an RV stored outside?
Use tire covers and a windshield shade to block UV, and keep the battery on a maintainer. Wash and wax before you park it, and check the roof seams after summer. Tempe sun is hard on rubber and plastic. If you're leaving it for winter, drain the lines and check the gate hours so you're not rushed on pickup day.
