HI, If you have space at home or sometimes the airport will allow, you can rent one of thoes 20 foot storage containers for about 60.00 to 80.00 per month and pull the wings and keep it in there for the winter months. Thats what I did with mine and it worked prety well but there isn't much room to work on it, but it will stay dry and protected. You might also consider purchasing an enclosed trailer for your plane.
