Trailer cover

What trailer cover do you all recommend? Something to protect the roof from sun damage while being stored here in the south this summer.

One of probably a thousand threads where this question has been asked. Search feature at the top of the page will help with finding more of them.

There are several brands of covers with some having different materials. I've used Adco and National RV Covers. It all depends how much you want to spend and how long you'd like it to last. Here in NYS ours have lasted about 5 or 6 years, but we don't get the severe sun and heat the southern states get.

There are the only two brands we've had actual experience with.

I’m on my sixth year with an Elements All-Climate cover and it is still doing great. It has been through a couple of snows, high winds and plenty of rain. There are no rips and mildew has never been a problem as the material breathes and dries quickly. I have a much lighter cover that I throw on for gaps between summer trips to protect from our extreme summer sun but the Elements has been great from fall to spring.

My rig is 26 feet long. It’s easiest to pull the cover on with two people — one on each side on stepladders. I can take it off alone, though. Some will say they have problems with a cover blowing and wearing the finish of the TT. I’ve never experienced that but keep it cinched down and use pieces of pool noodles or pads for protection.
