Typically 38' × 55' × 16' (custom to your rig) Package
RV Pole Barn — Built for Motorhomes, Fifth Wheels & Toy Haulers
Tall enough for a Class A motorhome. Wide enough to walk around it. Built post-frame to clear-span — no posts in the middle of your bay.
An RV pole barn isn't just a tall garage — it's a different kind of building. The door has to clear a Class A roof (most need 14-foot openings). The trusses have to span 38 to 50 feet without a post in the middle. The walls need to handle a sliding awning, an AC unit, and a couple of slide-outs.
We've built RV pole barns across Delaware and Maryland's Eastern Shore — Clayton, Milton, Woolford, Easton — for owners who got tired of paying $200/month for outdoor RV storage and watching their rig fade in the sun. The math usually works out: a properly sized RV barn pays for itself in 5–8 years and adds resale value to the land.
Tell us your rig (length, height with AC, slide configuration) and your property setbacks. We'll spec the package — door size, eave height, truss span, and floor type — and quote it in plain language.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size pole barn do I need for an RV?
Add 5' to your rig length, 6' to your width, and 2' to your tallest point (including AC and antennas). A 35' Class A typically needs a 40×60×16 minimum to allow walk-around space, slide-outs deployed, and door clearance.
What size overhead door do I need for a Class A motorhome?
Most Class A coaches are 12'6" to 13'6" tall with AC. We spec 14' tall × 14' wide doors as the standard — that gives you clearance plus margin for satellite dishes and roof equipment.
Do I need insulation in an RV pole barn?
Not for storage-only use. If you'll work on the rig, store batteries that drain in cold weather, or want to extend the life of seals and tires, insulation is worth the upgrade — typically blown-in or vinyl-back fiberglass with a moisture barrier.
Can you build an RV pole barn with a boat bay too?
Yes — this is one of our most popular Eastern Shore configurations. We spec a wide center bay for the RV and a narrower lean-to or attached bay for the boat trailer. Same building, single package quote.
How much does an RV pole barn cost in Delaware or Maryland?
Depends on door size, eave height, concrete, and electrical. The big cost driver is door size — a 14×14 door is the largest single line item on the quote. We send written package pricing within 2–3 business days of your request.
