Given the investment required for a caravans and other touring and leisure vehicles, it makes sense that one of your first priorities would be the safety and security of your tourer. Some of you reading this may be thinking you could just use the driveway or the street in front of your home. However, at Caravan Helper, we’d advise against that because the statistics suggest over half the thefts of caravans and similar vehicles occur right outside the homes and properties of the owners. The good news is though if you live in Weymouth, Bournemouth, Poole, Bridport or another town in the generally pretty county of Dorset, there are facilities available that will help keep your caravan safe and sound.
We’ve managed to find seven great caravan storage sites in Dorset, that are spread out enough to cater to you whether you are based in Swanage, Dorchester, Lyne Regis or somewhere else. With many having CaSSOA Gold Standard awards, you can be sure your tourer will be ready and waiting between uses, freeing up space around your property. If you’re worried about the price, check out this post before looking at the guide below.
