Storing your RV can be contingent on what is and isn’t allowed by your HOA and the possibility of being towed.
The backyard
Depending on the size of your backyard you may be able to store your RV just behind your house. While this option may sound tempting because it’s free and convenient, there are a few reasons why this might not be the best option depending on the size of your RV.

Outdoor storage facility
