Storing a Rooftop Tent Off-Season
When the camping season comes to an end, it’s worth taking the time to properly prepare your rooftop tent for storage to extend its lifespan. The most important step is to thoroughly dry and air it out – this removes any moisture from the fabric and frame, helping to prevent mold, unpleasant odors, and material degradation.
How to store it?
The tent can be stored horizontally, vertically, or even suspended from the ceiling (e.g., in a garage). The exact orientation is not critical – what matters is that the tent does not come into contact with damp or bare concrete, which can promote moisture build-up and negatively affect its condition.
Storage conditions
Choose a space with a positive, stable temperature and low humidity. This will keep your rooftop tent in great shape and ready for the next season without additional maintenance.
