If you’ve ever tried to back a 35-foot motorhome or a loaded trailer into a tight storage space, you know why drive-through units are worth seeking out. At Elite RV & Storage in southwest Bakersfield — 8700 Scobee Street, off Highway 99 near Panama Lane — you pull straight in one end and straight out the other. No spotters, no jackknifing, no white-knuckle three-point turns.

Pull in one end, out the other

A drive-through (or pull-through) unit has a door on each end, so you drive forward the whole way — in and out. For anything long, heavy, or awkward to reverse, that’s the difference between a two-minute drop-off and a ten-minute ordeal.

• No backing up — ideal for RVs, boats, and long trailers that are a pain to reverse.
• Faster in-and-out — hook up and roll out forward when it’s time for the next trip.
• Easier on drivers of any experience level — no need to be an expert at reversing a rig.
• Less risk of dings — forward-only movement in a wide, clear bay.

Sized for the big stuff

Drive-through access only helps if the unit is actually big enough, so ours are built for oversized vehicles from the ground up:

• Tall ceilings and oversized roll-up doors that clear high-profile RVs, wake towers, and stacked loads.
• Wide, paved drive aisles with room to line up straight before you pull through.
• Enclosed, drive-up construction that keeps Valley sun and dust off whatever’s inside.
• Gated 24/7 access with video surveillance and LED lighting throughout.

Who drive-through units are perfect for

Drive-through storage is a favorite for RVs, boats, and oversized vehicles that are hard to reverse, and for contractors and fleets moving box trucks and trailers in and out on a schedule. It also pairs naturally with warehouse-sized units when you need to load or unload a vehicle inside the space without ever backing in.
