With 15 trailer storage facilities listed across the state and an average rating of 4.9, your job is mostly picking the right kind of bay. Seven are indoor, nine outdoor, and several handle boats and vehicles too. A few names come up again and again, and they earned it.

Seven of the 15 facilities here are indoor, and nine offer outdoor spots. Some do both, so you can pick based on how much weather you want your rig to see. Indoor keeps UV off the siding and gelcoat and keeps hail from finding the roof, which matters in Iowa. Outdoor is usually the cheaper call and fine for a flatbed or utility trailer that lives a hard life anyway. If your trailer is a boat trailer, pay attention: 10 of the 15 facilities list boat storage, so you have options most states would envy.
Ames West Side Storage carries a 5.0 rating over 363 reviews, which is a lot of people bothering to say something nice. It runs indoor and outdoor, with gated entry, cameras, 24/7 access and climate control. Waukee Storage sits at 4.7 across 78 reviews and offers much the same mix. Moellers Marine & Storage in the boat and trailer world holds a 5.0, and Hillcrest Outdoor Storage and Linden Storage round out the smaller operations. LockBox Storage Council Bluffs has 133 reviews, so read those before you commit.
Seven facilities advertise 24/7 gate access. That sounds great until you think about when you actually move a trailer: usually early or late, which is exactly why gate hours matter. Check them before you sign. Gated entry and cameras show up on several listings, but cameras only record. Ask whether anyone is on site, and confirm your trailer is covered under your own insurance while it sits. Pull the battery and put it on a maintainer if the rig will sit through winter, and drain or winterize anything with water in it.
There are 15 trailer storage facilities listed in Iowa, with an average rating of 4.9. Seven offer indoor storage and nine offer outdoor spots, and some facilities offer both, so you can choose based on budget and how much weather protection your trailer needs.
Seven of the 15 list indoor storage. That is a little under half, so if you want your trailer out of the weather you should book early and ask about ceiling height and door width before you commit.
Yes. Ten of the 15 facilities list boat storage alongside trailer storage, and Moellers Marine & Storage and Linden Storage both appear in the top listings. Ask whether the boat and trailer count as one unit or two when you get a quote.
Usually yes. Most storage facilities insure the building, not your trailer. Call your auto or RV insurer and confirm the trailer is covered while stored off your property, and ask whether contents inside it are covered too.
