Lebanon Valley College sits right in the heart of Annville, PA β€” and the families who spend time here know that Lebanon County living comes with a certain lifestyle. Weekends on Lake Aldred. Summer days at Speedwell Forge Lake. Fishing at Swatara Creek. If you're one of the many Lebanon County families who own a boat, pontoon, jet ski, or trailer, you already know the challenge: where do you put it when it's not on the water?

Parking a boat in your driveway works β€” until it doesn't. HOA complaints, limited space, neighbor friction, and the wear and tear of sitting exposed through a Pennsylvania winter all add up. TBG Storage in Annville offers secure outdoor vehicle storage for boats, RVs, trailers, and more β€” conveniently located just minutes from Lebanon Valley College and easily accessible from Lebanon, Palmyra, and throughout Lebanon County.

Why Storing Your Boat at Home Stops Working

Most boat owners start out storing their vessel at home β€” parked in the driveway or on the side of the house. It seems convenient at first. But over time the problems start to stack up, especially for families splitting time between Lebanon Valley College and home:

  • HOA restrictions β€” many neighborhoods in Lebanon, Palmyra, and Annville have rules limiting how long boats can be parked in driveways or visible from the street
  • Weather exposure β€” Pennsylvania winters are hard on boats. UV damage, moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles degrade covers, motors, and hulls over time
  • Driveway congestion β€” a boat trailer takes up a full parking space, which matters when you have college students moving in and out, visiting family, or multiple vehicles
  • Security concerns β€” boats stored in open driveways are targets for theft and vandalism, especially during the off-season when they sit unused for months

TBG Storage in Annville offers a better solution β€” secure, gated outdoor storage that keeps your boat protected and accessible without taking up space at home. Serving Lebanon Valley College families in Annville, Lebanon, Palmyra, and all of Lebanon County.

Boat Storage Tips for Lebanon County Owners

Getting your boat ready for storage is worth doing right β€” a little preparation goes a long way toward protecting your investment through the off-season:

  • Flush the motor with fresh water after every use in any body of water to prevent corrosion and buildup
  • Drain all water from the bilge, livewell, and any storage compartments before winter storage β€” standing water freezes and cracks
  • Invest in a quality cover β€” a well-fitted cover is the single best protection against UV damage, moisture, and debris during outdoor storage
  • Stabilize the fuel β€” add fuel stabilizer before storing for the season to prevent varnish buildup in the carburetor
  • Disconnect the battery and store it in a climate-controlled space or on a trickle charger to extend its life
  • Check your trailer β€” inspect tires, lights, and wheel bearings before pulling out of storage in the spring
