Compass Self Storage
Plant City self-storage with RV, boat and trailer parking, climate-controlled units and a 4.9-star rating from 557 reviews.
Plant City sits between Tampa and Lakeland, close enough to the interstate that a rig is easy to move and far enough out that space is not at a premium. Two facilities here take trailers, and both also handle boats and vehicles. Reviews average five out of five across the pair, so the small sample is a good one. One caveat worth knowing up front: neither facility is exclusively trailer storage, so plan to share the yard.

39 RV & Boat Storage is the newer, smaller operation with just 12 reviews, but they are unanimous. It takes covered, boat, trailer and vehicle storage and adds a gated entry, cameras and 24/7 access, which matters if you tow after work or drop a trailer before dawn. The other option, Compass Self Storage, carries a 4.9 across 557 reviews, a much deeper record. It handles boat, trailer and vehicle storage and lists climate-controlled space among its features. Call ahead to confirm that climate space fits your trailer's height and length before you commit.
Start with access hours. Only one of the two runs 24/7 gate access, so if your schedule is unpredictable, that decides it. Next, ask what surface you are parking on and whether the spot is covered, since Florida sun does slow damage to tires, seals and gelcoat over a few seasons. Compass has the longer review history, which is worth weight if you want evidence rather than a hunch. The smaller facility gives you cameras and a gate, which many owners value more than a big name. Visit both in person, look at drainage after rain, and see how tight the turns are with a trailer behind you.
Ask about insurance requirements and whether the facility needs proof of coverage on the trailer itself. Confirm the gate code policy and what happens if you arrive after hours. Walk the spot and check for low spots that hold water, plus overhanging limbs that could drop debris on a roof. For longer stretches, pull the battery and keep it on a maintainer, and consider a cover if the rig sits outdoors. Plant City summers bring heat and heavy rain, so ventilation inside a closed trailer helps keep mildew down. Snap photos of the unit when you park it, and note the date.
Two facilities list trailer storage here. Both also take boats and vehicles, and together they hold a five out of five average rating from reviews.
One of the two, 39 RV & Boat Storage, advertises 24/7 access along with a gate and cameras. Compass Self Storage does not list it, so confirm hours directly if that matters to you.
Yes. One facility in town lists covered storage, which keeps sun and rain off the roof and tires. Ask about clearance height before you book if your trailer is tall.
Look at drainage and shade at the spot, confirm insurance rules, and ask how gate codes work. Pull the battery for the off season and use a maintainer so it is ready when you are.
