Covers for Winter

Hi,

So I just became an owner of a Travel Trailer. Where I live we get on average 10 - 14 feet of snowfall total in the winter months. There is only one place in the area that provides covered storage and I just found out that there is approximately a 10 year waiting list.
So, my next option is to buy a cover for it and park it in my driveway and remove the snow as it falls. I don't want to go the cheap way and buy tarps to cover it. I have been looking on campingworld.com and seen a few of the ADCO covers that they have.

Does anyone have any experience of these covers and whether or not they are up to the challenge of the winters we experience here?

cheers.

I have an Adco cover and just covered my tt yesterday. The cover seems to be made well, the installation was easy with ample, adjustable wraps to keep the cover securely in place. This is my first year so I have no way to judge durability but we are hoping to get at least two off seasons out of it.

I've used an ADCO cover for 3 years, held up well, last year noticed a corner was chafing. I padded the bottom front corners with foam, all was well.

With the new trailer, I plan on continuing to use it. Same length.

can't help you on the cover question, but if I had the extra money I think I would open up another covered storage in your area. Sounds like a lot of people would show up. I have tried to find covered storage in the general area where my TT is stored. There just plain and simple is not any. I even looked into possibly opening one, but it was going to take much more cash than I had!
