Plenty of room in the back lot for trucks and trailers, but unsure how many parking passes they issue per guest? I'm staying in the HSS Condos and will get a parking pass for their deck, but need to figure out if I get to park my truck and trailer in the outside back lot as well?? :dunno:

I am bringing my trailer and I called A&A Storage in MB for a back up if there isnt enough room at HSS. A&A only wanted under 30 for the entire week when I called them a month ago. Something to think about. (843) 251-6726

I'm sure they'll be ok with getting it all situated being it's MW.
We'll be in the same boat with the truck+trailer,coupe,vert,etc.

yeah, we've had to get a bit creative on parking passes. I think the "rule" is 2 passes per room, not sure about condo's and such. but I've managed to talk my way into more before.

You'll be safe to leave the trailer, i would suggest leaving it hooked to the truck to be safe, or atleast locking and chaining the trailer in a way to make it very difficult to steal.

I will trade you one of myHotel Parking pass for one of your Condo Parking Pass......lol

Sure you will be fine though......

I booked my room last night for the hotel. I plan on just parking the trailer out back and trying to lock it down the best way I can, Wifes going to be driving the Expedtion around......so I figure a couple of Chains, about 3 Locks and maybe something to lock it too...Hook it to the trailer beside me......lol possiably a tree also............make it hard enough to steal and maybe they will go after another one.

Trailer parking is going to be DEEP. I will be rolling in with the F250 and one in tow...

Last year, I had two passes for the Condo deck, and one for the trailer parking lot. BTW, three vehicles and two drivers is a bad idea...at least when UHaul drops the ball on your trailer reservation. :(


BTW, here's a picture that shows the trailer parking lot at the height of MW2010:

last year that stupid 40-something-foot car trailer cause a lot of problems for everyone else. I hope they do a better job or organizing trailer parking this year.

back the trailer up to a pole. wrap the chain around the pole and frame. run a chain through two of the wheels. ball lock.

I wouldn't worry about the trailers not being safe, I usually just throw a pad lock on it and let her go.

People are usually hanging out at all times of the night and if someone tries to steal a trailer. I'm sure they would be caught.
