Tandem Axle Boat Trailer Cover And Wheel Covers for Year-Round Outdoor Storage

Good morning Brandon. We don't have a custom-fit cover specifically designed for an empty boat trailer frame, but we do have a few options to help protect it from the sun and weather year-round.

For covering the trailer frame, I'd recommend a heavy-duty tarp like the Erickson # EM57049 (12' x 20') or # EM57044 (10' x 16'). These have reinforced tie-down points so you can secure them around the trailer. We also carry other sizes depending on the length and width of your trailer. You can use some bungee straps like # TS83FR.

For the winch, we have the Dutton-Lainson Winch Cover # DL24051 and Bulldog Winch Cover # BDW88SV. These are designed for specific electric winches, so we'd want to check the dimensions and style of your winch to make sure one would work.

I'd definitely recommend tire covers as well to protect against UV damage and dry rot. For example, we have the Adco Tyre Gard # 290-3933 (black) and # 290-3923 (white), which cover both tires on one side of a tandem-axle trailer. These fit tires measuring 27" to 29" in diameter, and you'd need two covers to protect all four tires. We have other sizes available as well.

We also carry full boat covers if you ever need to protect the boat itself while it's on the trailer.

How long and wide is your trailer, and what size tires does it have? That'll help me narrow down the best options for your setup!
