🧹 3. Transition your gear for the season
November is also a great time to think about “pre-winter” organization—storing away summer gear, prepping for snow, and keeping your outdoor toys protected.
Why it matters
- Prevents weather damage from moisture or freezing.
- Frees up garage and driveway space.
- Makes spring unpacking a breeze.
Storage tips
- Clean everything before storing—boats, cars, or RVs.
- Cover or shrink-wrap to protect finishes.
- Choose a facility with security and easy drive-up access.
🏢 4. Support Local, Store Small Spotlight: Barker Self Storage
Located at 4303 N Barker Rd., the new Barker Self Storage facility is a welcome addition to Spokane Valley!
We offer:
- RV Storage
- Boat Storage
- Car Storage
- Drive-Up Self Storage Units
With clean facilities, friendly staff, and easy access for large vehicles, it’s a convenient and secure option—especially if you’re looking to winterize your gear or free up space at home before the holidays.

🔧 5. November To-Do List:
- Shop local and always support small businesses!
- Sort through outdoor and recreational gear—decide what stays and what stores.
