Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the topics covered in this episode.

What size units are available at Modern Storage Shackleford in Little Rock for boat and RV storage?

Modern Storage® Shackleford offers units up to 15 feet by 40 feet, which is large enough to store most full-size boats, motorhomes, fifth-wheel trailers, and other oversized recreational vehicles. If you are unsure whether your vehicle will fit, the facility team can help you find the right unit size before you reserve.

Is there boat and RV storage available near central Little Rock Arkansas?

Yes, Modern Storage® Shackleford is a newly opened facility in central Little Rock, Arkansas, built specifically to serve boat and RV owners in the area. The location fills a real need for secure, purpose-built vehicle storage in a market where options have historically been limited.

Why should I store my RV at a storage facility instead of keeping it at home?

Many residential neighborhoods and HOA communities prohibit long-term RV or boat parking on private property or in driveways. Even where it is allowed, storing a large vehicle at a dedicated facility like Modern Storage® Shackleford protects it from weather exposure, reduces neighborhood friction, and keeps your property looking clean year-round.

What should self storage operators know about opening a boat and RV storage facility in a secondary market like Little Rock?

Secondary markets like Little Rock often have strong recreational vehicle ownership rates but fewer purpose-built large-format storage options compared to major metros. Facilities that offer units sized 15 by 40 feet or larger tend to attract long-term renters with high-value assets, which supports stable occupancy and lower turnover. Modern Storage® Shackleford is a current example of this strategy in action in central Arkansas.

How do I reserve a unit at the new Modern Storage Shackleford location?

Modern Storage® makes the reservation process straightforward, and you can contact the Shackleford facility directly to check availability and secure your unit. It is a good idea to call ahead or inquire online, especially for the largest unit sizes, since high-demand options at newly opened facilities tend to fill quickly.
