The Storage Bin # LC131633 on the Lippert Underchassis Double Bin Storage Unit w/ Spare Tire Carrier # LC125460 is not waterproof. Lippert only recommends carrying items like cords, fire wood, tire chocks, and sewage supplies in these bins.
We do carry a Rightline Gear 4x4 Duffel Bag # RL100J86-B that has a waterproof, PVC-coated fabric to keep cargo clean and dry. These can be placed inside the bins to keep items dry you wish to store inside the bins. view full answer...
If you didn't submerge the Buyers Products Utility Storage Box # 3371712240 it would keep the contents of the box dry but in order for something to be classified as "waterproof" it needs be able to stay dry while being submerged which this would not do. Under normal weather conditions like rain though this box will prevent water from getting in though. view full answer...
For storage of RV with a water filter system such as the Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System, # CS87FR, you should consider removing the filters from the canisters and blowing out the system with pressurized air using the Valterra RV Blow Out Plug, # P23518LFVP. Do not exceed 30 psi. Allow the filter to dry out and store in a cool dry location. You can do this many times during the camping season but I recommend you not re-use after a long off-season of winter storage. view full answer...
Dry rot on trailer tires is caused by storage/exposure in excessive heat and sun, an overall lack of use, or low inflation on the tires. While I will say that the Goodyear tires on your older trailer are probably of better quality than the Carlisles that came with your new one, it's much more likely that their dry rot was the result of the previous owner's storage situation along with how much he actually pulled the trailer around than the difference in brand/construction between the two... view full answer...
Camco RV and Marine Disposable Water Filter # CAM40043 is intended to last one full camping season for most RVers. During the times between camping trips it is recommend to allow the filter to dry out, to place it in an unsealed plastic bag and to store it in a cool dry location to deter growth of bacteria which tend to thrive more in moist environments. I confirmed these recommended steps with Camco.
The filter can be used, dried and stored as many times as needed during one camping season... view full answer...
In order for something to be described as waterproof it needs to be able to be submerged underwater and keep the contents dry. The Orion Storage Bag # RN7830-01 would not be waterproof as the lid of it is opened and closed with a zipper.
I wouldn't leave the bag out in the rain, but if you were walking a reasonably short distance with this bag the contents would stay dry. Road flares by nature have can handle quite a bit of moisture before failing. The ends of the flares are typically... view full answer...
The Classic Accessories DryGuard Waterproof Boat Cover, part # CA20083, is designed to keep the interior of your boat dry and clean. The PVC-free fabric resists mildew, and is resistant to UV rays. This cover has two rear-air vents that have built-in stiffeners and allows moisture on the interior to escape.
Although there is no guarantee to eliminate mildew completely, the vents will help reduce the chance for condensation build-up and mildew. I would recommend removing the cover occasionally... view full answer...
We do have a solution that would provide storage covers for all the tires on your triple axle trailer, but we don't offer a one piece cover that would cover all three tires per side. What you could do is use three sets of the single covers, part # CA80084. This will protect all your tires from UV radiation which can dry out your tires and cause premature dry rot. view full answer...

I recommend using the Erickson Industrial-Grade Truck/Trailer Tarp # EM57051 for covering your empty boat trailers. This tarp is 12' wide by 24' long so you will be able to cover the wheels and tires to protect them from UV damage as well. Brass eyelets and steel D-rings run along the outer edges for multiple tie-down points to secure it to the trailer and prevent wind damage.
The Erickson Tarp Tie-Down Strap w/ S-Hooks # EM06702 are great for long term storage as they will not break down... view full answer...
The Locking Floor Mounted Storage Box for Enclosed Trailers # M387FR is not waterproof. The latch and lid were not designed to be waterproof as it is to be mounted inside an enclosed trailer. We do have a Dry Bag # CG48FV you can use to help protect any components that would go into the storage bag from getting wet should water be able to get through the lid. view full answer...
In order for something to be considered water tight or water proof it has to be able to be submerged and not leak any water.
The Lippert Underchassis Double Bin Storage Unit # LC236558 that you referenced would keep things mostly dry under normal circumstances, but if you are planning on fording a creek or driving through a hurricane water would get in the bins. view full answer...
According to Konig, after the chains are used they should be thoroughly rinsed, allowed to completely dry and then placed back into the storage bag that was included with the chains.
I'd take them to a do-it-yourself car wash, wash and rinse them well to get the road salt off them and hang them up until dry. view full answer...

The best way to preserve your tires is to put the trailer up on jack stands, partially deflate the tires and protect them from UV rays which shouldn't be an issue in garage storage.
As a general rule of thumb, trailer tires should be replaced every 6 to 8 years regardless of wear. Even though an older tire might appear to have plenty of tread left on it, dry rot and cracking can cause tire failure. You mentioned age not being the issue, so the only cause of separation is misuse or manufacturer... view full answer...

The Camco Dehumidifier # CAM44195 will help to keep the camper dry and eliminate the musty odors that are often generated from humidity during storage. view full answer...
Try just letting the wiring dry out for a day or so and see if that stops the error code. Most likely you have some water in the trailer wiring connectors and letting it dry out will take care of the problem.

For your 42' 5th wheel I recommend the Classic Accessories PermaPRO Deluxe Extra Tall 5th Wheel Cover or Toy Hauler Cover - XT Model 7 # CA80-299-203101-RT. This RV cover has an air vent system and quick-drying PermaPRO fabric to reduce wind stress and vent inside moisture that you would have in a snow heavy climate. The extra-strength, lightweight PermaPRO ripstop fabric repels water and protects against dirt and sun damage. It also has zippered panels to allow access to the RV doors and... view full answer...
The Clearsource Ultra RV Water Filter System # CS87FR really is designed for "weekend warriors" such as yourself, who would only be using it occasionally, and are not living in the camper full time. It is very easy to set up and take down, and it is pretty lightweight, at least as far as water filtration systems go.
We do not recommend leaving it full when in storage though. What you will want to do is remove the filters and blow out the system with pressurized air (do not exceed 30 PSI).... view full answer...
