What you can specify on a Carport.com RV cover

The basic idea is a long, tall cover you can pull into. From there, width, length, height, roof, overhangs, and how enclosed the sides are are all yours. Sizes run from 21- and 26-foot covers for trailers up to 40×61 for extra-large coaches.

Size the cover to the RV

  • About 12′ wide for a camper.
  • About 18′ wide with pop-outs.
  • About 26′ wide if a tow vehicle parks beside the coach.
  • Custom widths to 40′ and lengths to 61′. Clearance is leg height.

Open, sided, or enclosed

  • Open front for easy parking; optional side overhangs.
  • Top, bottom, or full side panels against wind-driven rain.

RV cover vs. standard carport

An RV cover is a carport built taller and often longer, so a motorhome or fifth-wheel clears the frame. A standard metal carport is usually sized for cars and trucks. If you want walls and a lockable door around the coach, look at metal garages with extra height.

What an RV cover protects

  • Motorhomes and class A / C coaches
  • Travel trailers and fifth-wheels
  • Campers with or without pop-outs
  • Tow vehicles parked beside the RV
  • Sun, hail, sap, and falling branches
  • Optional workshop space at one end

RV carport questions

What is a metal RV carport?

A metal RV carport (or RV cover) is a tall American-steel shelter built to park a motorhome, travel trailer, fifth-wheel, or camper out of sun, hail, and falling debris. Carport.com sizes them to the unit — typically 12 to 40 feet wide and as long as 61 feet — with Regular, A-frame, or Vertical roofs.

How tall should an RV cover be?

Vehicle clearance is the leg height, not the peak of the roof. Measure your RV including A/C units and vents, then add room to pull in. Many covers start around 12–15 feet of leg height. The online designer shows the clearance as you set height; or call (855) 227-7678 with your RV specs.

What size RV carport do I need?

A typical starting point is 12 feet wide for a camper, 18 feet wide if you have pop-outs, and 26 feet wide if you park a tow vehicle beside the coach. Extra-large RVs can use covers up to 40 feet wide and 61 feet long. Leave length for the unit plus walk-around space.

Should an RV cover be open or enclosed?

Open sides give the easiest parking. Half walls or top-side panels cut wind-driven rain. Full enclosure and a closed front or back add the most weather protection. Overhangs are optional. Many RV owners choose 12-gauge frames for the extra height and wind load.

What roof styles are available on an RV cover?

The same three as other Carport.com buildings. Regular is an arched roof with horizontal panels. A-frame (boxed-eave) is a gable with horizontal panels. Vertical uses vertical panels so rain and snow shed — the most durable choice on a long, tall cover.

Is delivery and installation included?

Yes. Delivery and professional installation are free on a level building site in the 40+ states Carport.com serves. A deposit holds the order; the balance is due at delivery. RV carport kits are available if you prefer to assemble.

Can I buy an RV carport kit?

Yes. A kit includes the steel and sheeting for the size and options you design. Choose kit-only in the designer, or call (855) 227-7678. Installed buildings remain the default.

Do I need a certified RV cover for a permit?

Tall structures often need a permit. Certification and engineered drawings are available when you order. Ask the phone team which option matches your county, or start the design online.

Can I get an instant RV cover price?

Yes. Open the designer, choose RV Cover, and set width, length, height, roof, and sides — the local price updates as you go. You can also open any photo in this catalog and price that exact building. Call (855) 227-7678 if you would rather talk it through.
