Trailer parking 8/3 to 8/10
We are coming into town next week 8/3 to 8/10 and are looking for a place to park a utility trailer. I know the one gravel lot is closed so that doesn't seem like it's an option. Is there any private spaces that can be rented
Finding parking for a utility trailer in Ocean City during the busy summer season can be challenging, especially when some of the common public lots are closed. There are a few options to consider for private or commercial spaces that may accept trailers for a short-term rental.
Here are some options to explore:
- Private storage lots or fenced areas: Some property owners or small storage facilities around Ocean City rent out spaces for trailers or boats. You can check local classifieds, Craigslist, or Facebook Marketplace for listings specifying “trailer storage” or “short-term parking.”
- Marinas with dry storage: Certain marinas offer land storage for boats and utility trailers. Even if you’re not storing a boat, some may accept trailers temporarily, especially if you call ahead. Examples include Sunset Marina, Bay Point Marina, and Lighthouse Sound Marina, all within reasonable driving distance.
- RV parks or campgrounds: Some RV parks allow storage of utility trailers during stays. If you or a friend are staying at a nearby RV park, ask if they can accommodate a trailer for the week. Sun Outdoors Gateway or Jolly Roger Campground may be options to inquire about.
Additional tips:
- Call ahead to confirm availability, as summer weeks are very busy in Ocean City.
- Expect to pay a premium for a week-long rental, particularly for short-term trailer parking close to the beach.
- Consider off-site options just outside Ocean City, where rates may be lower and availability better, then drive into town as needed.
Overall, private storage lots, marinas, or RV park arrangements are your best bet for safely parking a utility trailer from 8/3 to 8/10. Early booking and direct communication with property managers will increase your chances of securing a spot.
