Common Questions
Which material should I choose?
If you are trying to choose between the 18oz and 12oz vinyl materials, please choose based on your environment. For regular weather conditions, 12 oz. vinyl is a great material at a slightly less expensive price. If you are going to experience heavy weather conditions such as heavy snow, heavy rain, and lots of wind, then please choose the 18 oz. vinyl material.
What is the most common material?
The 18 ounce vinyl is used to make 90% of the covers ALCO offers. Even though both materials are equally strong and look the same, the majority of customers pick the thicker material.
Are they easy to clean?
Yes. Contrary to other polyester covers that resemble canvas, vinyl is a material that is extremely slick and is therefore simple to clean. Canvas will capture and hold mold and stains that are difficult to remove, as opposed to the sleek ALCO Vinyl custom furniture covers.
How strong are the covers?
18 oz vinyl is a very strong and long-lasting material, in fact, it is the same material that is used on the semi trailers to cover their cargo! As you can imagine, the abuse the material can endure on the highway is extreme, and if they didn't hold up, the truckers would not use them. That is why 18 oz vinyl is one of the strongest covers that you can purchase.
My cover will be used indoors. Which material is ideal?
The 600D material is the perfect material for indoors or even outdoors if its mostly in the shade and not in harsh conditions.
Common Questions
Custom Skid Steer Covers – Frequently Asked Questions
What do Custom Skid Steer Covers protect against?
They shield your skid steer from rain, snow, dust, UV, bird droppings, and wind-blown debris while parked. Covers reduce corrosion, paint fade, and premature wear on hoses, controls, and seats.
Which materials are available?
Choose 12oz vinyl (medium duty) or 18oz vinyl (heavy duty). Vinyl is waterproof and built for outdoor exposure. 600D polyester may be available for light-duty indoor storage on request.
12oz vs 18oz vinyl—what should I pick?
Use 12oz for regular weather and budget projects. Select 18oz for harsh conditions, frequent handling, high UV, or long-term outdoor storage—our most rugged option.
Are the covers waterproof and UV resistant?
Yes. Both vinyl options are fully waterproof and resist UV cracking and fading, making them ideal for year-round outdoor use.
How do I measure my skid steer for a custom fit?
Measure in inches: Side A (width), Side B (length), and Side C (height). Include mirrors, beacon lights, or rear weights if you want them covered. We add slack for fit on all sides except height.
Will the cover fit with attachments mounted?
Yes. We can size for mounted buckets, forks, sweepers, augers, or other implements. Provide overall dimensions with the attachment installed, or request a separate attachment cover.
Can I add access features or security options?
Optional upgrades include cover splits, zipper doors, flap openings for fueling, and tie-backs. Reinforced tie-downs help secure the cover in high winds or when trailering (use at your discretion).
Are these covers easy to clean?
Yes. Vinyl wipes clean with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh solvents or abrasives to preserve seams and surface finish.
Do the covers handle severe weather?
18oz vinyl is engineered for heavy rain, snow load, and strong winds. Add tie-downs for maximum stability in storm-prone yards or open lots.
What color options are available?
Standard colors: Black, Brown, Blue, White, Tan, Red, Navy Blue, Yellow, Olive Green, and Gray. Availability may vary by material weight.
Can I trailer my skid steer with the cover on?
We don’t recommend trailering with a cover due to wind loads, but if you must, choose 18oz vinyl and use multiple tie-downs to minimize billowing. Inspect fitment frequently.
What is the production lead time and shipping policy?
Most custom skid steer covers ship within 10–12 working days after order confirmation. Shipping is free on orders over $150.
What warranty is included?
12oz vinyl covers include a 3-year warranty. 600D polyester (if used) includes a 2-year warranty. Heavier 18oz vinyl is covered by an extended warranty—ask at checkout for current terms.
How is pricing calculated?
Pricing is based on your machine’s dimensions, material selection (12oz or 18oz vinyl), and add-ons like splits, zipper doors, or tie-downs. Larger sizes and heavier vinyl cost more.
Do you offer bulk discounts for fleets?
Yes. Contractors, rental fleets, and facilities ordering multiple covers qualify for quantity discounts and coordinated delivery. Click “Custom Quote” or call for tailored pricing.
