I buy the 3 mil 55 gallon ones.
They are called barrel liners.

They don't look as sexy as the nice white commercial ones. But until I find a better cover set that works in the cold; these will continue to work for me.

Try the ones made by Classic. They are good and no cracks etc after 2 years of uses!

i use real tire covers door side of trailor. No cover under the pullout which is open most of the time. I am seasonal.

Good idea grenger for the ones who keeps their pull out opened all the times. Covers are expensives and like that you need only 2 instead of 4.

Lou, every time I think about 55 gallon trash bags used as tire covers the term "trailer trash" keeps getting in the way of my understanding this concept!

Saw an RVer that uses solar screen to cover the wheel wells. Didn't have a close look but would be easy to fabricate with PVC and screen material. Then come up with a hanging method. Not sure if solar screen blocks UV, but in the Las Vegas sun anything helps.
