Where do you store your tent?

[HeadShoulderHipsandCalves]

We have a mice infested shed and don't want to risk the tent in there. At the moment it's looking cumbersome in the house.

Does anyone know of vermin proof storage?

I think best to get a 'Really useful box' and store in there if it fits. That's my plan anyway once I've sorted everything out.

Under my bed - but it is a very small tent and I live in a flat with absolutely no storage space whatsoever so have limited options. I’ve decided to reduce all my camping equipment this year and just take the basics going forward.

We have a heavy duty thick plastic storage box from Amazon and keep it in the garage. Haven't checked it for a hike,but hopefully it's vermin-proof!

For a while!

I bought some racking shelves and built them in my cellar for my camping gear after suffering a washing machine flood one year. Now my camping gear is neatly stacked and safely off the floor, and organised so I can choose what to take depending on which kind of trip.

Thanks- forgot I'd posted!

Mine is also under my bed

Our tent us a huge 8 person air tent- my bed would be half way to the ceiling!

Our 8 person air tent lived in the bottom of our wardrobe, it currently lives at my mum's house! Our new 6 person air tent lives under DS's bed, admittedly it doesn't slide under it has to be carefully packed then the bed lifted up to insert it though!

Two huge cotton canvas tents live in my airing cupboard as they'll go mildewey if they get damp.

Old 6 person tent lived in the attic, new tent is too big / heavy and we've emptied an old airing cupboard for it.

My son keeps his in my spare room 😂

Our berghaus 6xl air lives in the built in wardrobe in our bedroom. It takes up pretty much the whole thing. Although it summers in the conservatory so we don't have to lug it up and door the stairs constantly.

All the other gear is in the attic, but we don't think we could physically get it up there!

My vango air tent is in our built in wardrobe. Takes up half the floor space but is safe in their. everything else is kept in a trailer and storage box outside..

Garage but we do have humane mice traps down.

Keep the tent in a plastic storage crate in the garage. Air beds, sleeping bags etc are kept in the house.

airing cupboard

My very small tent lives in the bottom of a wardrobe with 2 sleeping bags and a camping mat - doesn’t impinge on the hanging space.

In the cellar (which is dry).

Attic

Or spare room under a bed. It needs to stay dry

Our old one used to go in the loft but the new one is too big. It's in the bottom of a build in wardrobe, it's pretty big and in the way but the doors do shut. Wish I had a garage to store it in.

In this outside cupboard.

Same type of tent OP. Flipping heavy and too big to store inside!

Ours (same size) is in the bottom of the spare room wardrobe. It's too big and heavy to get into the loft, and too damp in the old shed. We did think about buying one of those outdoor plastic storage crates/boxes but again were worried about damp.
