There are several recommended ways to store your SkyPod Roof Tent, but before doing so, it is important to ensure that the tent is fully dried out. In case you have to pack up a wet tent when leaving camp, make sure to open it up and dry it out as soon as you get back home. This is because mould and mildew can form if the tent is left wet for too long.
When removing the SkyPod Roof Tent, it is recommended to get another person to assist you. This will help prevent any injuries or possibly damaging your vehicle. If you have to remove the tent by yourself, it is advisable to use a hoist system.
If you have to take your SkyPod Roof Tent off and store it in your garage, make sure you never set the tent down on the floor, which could damage the exterior PVC cover. Always use a foam pad to sit the SkyPod Roof Tent on, and yes, it’s okay to set most models on their side.
One thing people don’t think of is wrapping the tent up in a tarp to prevent rodents from damaging the fabric. The best recommendation is to wrap the tent in stretch wrap to protect the fabric from moisture, dust, and insects.
