Looking for vehicle storage in Yuma

danceswithcages - 11-26-2015 at 01:04 PM

Hi all-

First post from a Baja n00b...sorry if this is posted in the wrong place.

My buddy and I are trailering our bikes from Montana tomorrow, heading to Yuma.

We should be in Yuma Sunday, crossing at San Luis Monday morning. (unless there's a better crossing...)

I need a storage place for my Jeep and small trailer...

Can anyone point me towards a good place that is safe and secure?

We will pick the Jeep up December 29.

Yes, a month of exploring Baja by motorcycle :)

Thank you

Welcome to the forum! I headed south through San Luise two years ago, then returned north through Algodones a month later. I like Algodones, but it can get jammed up on weekends and holidays.

If you are headed west toward Mexicali, I would use Algodones (or enter MX at Mexicali)

If you plan on driving secondary roads to Highway 5 south of Mexicalli, I would enter at San Luis (interesting drive, with lots of potential wrong turns)

I suppose where you store your tow vehicle will be a factor, and I have no recommendation there.

Have an epic journey, and I hope you can post updates whenever you find WIFI connections!

I live in buckeye. It's about 2 hours from yuma or 2 hours from the crossing at lukeville. Plenty of room at my place if you can't find anything closer.

You might also want to post up on thumpertalk in the baja forum.

Thanks for the tip :)

We'll be rolling in to Yuma today and I'll go check them out. Finally got out of the snow and really looking forward to warm weather.

It was -5 when we left Friday!
