Storage Pads

What do you recommend for home parking/storage; concrete or gravel?

Both will work just fine. Gravel has to be added over time and can be a pain when needing to lay under the RV. Concrete should be thick enough to handle the weight load. It should also be sealed.

Asphalt falls in between the two and can also be a good solution.

I made some storage pads from 2 x 12 cut to @ 4' long. I then covered them with rubber stall mat which I purchased at Tractor Supply.

Any floor is good, I put my tires on 3/4" treated plywood...and put the jacks down.

I had gravel since I bought this place two years ago. Finally poured the concrete pad and love it. So nice to have a solid surface to park/work on.
