Can you store a RTT on its side?

Do you know if it would be fine to store a RTT tipped up on its side or does it need to stay flat?

Yes. I store my tent on it's side in my garage. I place it on blocks to lift it off the floor. Make sure the tent is dry and folded neatly before storing it. I usually store mine with the hinge facing upward.

The biggest thing to do when you store a RTT is make sure it is put away dry - it also wouldn't hurt for it to be clean. I don't worry if mine are stored on their side or flat. What I don't do is put significant weight on them.

I also store my RTTs off the ground and usually on top of a few boards. This keeps them off direct contact with the ground to keep down on abrasion and water damage if an area floods.

They actually come from the factory with the "this side up" stickers all vertical and stored on their sides. So, yes. Store it on it's side with confidence!
