We designed our custom BBQ grill covers to the exact size of your grill, smoker, or outdoor kitchen island. This gives them a good fit and makes them useful for a longer period compared to one-size covers from a big box store. At ALCO, we cut and sew each cover.
If you want to order from our heavy-duty vinyl, we offer free shipping for covers worth above $85. The section below shows our varieties of grill and smoker style covers, how you can choose a befitting material, typical prices, and answers to common grill cover questions.

Common Questions
Is it better to cover a grill or leave it uncovered?
It’s best to cover a grill when you are not cooking. This is because the burners, knobs, and lid are protected from rain, pollen, bird droppings, and sun when they are covered. The exception is humid or salty coastal air, where Consumer Reports suggests leaving the grill uncovered except in bad weather so damp air is not trapped against the metal.
How long should you wait to cover a grill?
To cover a grill, wait until the lid cools. Our vinyl has a heat resistance of up to 160°F, and any cover can be melted by a hot lid and scorch. We recommend that you also allow the grill to dry first if it’s wet.
What is the best material for a BBQ cover?
The best material for a BBQ cover is heavy-duty vinyl. This material is completely waterproof, UV-resistant, and wipes clean. The strongest option of our vinyl BBQ cover is 18 oz., and it comes with a lifetime warranty. Meanwhile, 12 oz. vinyl is a good choice for milder weather. See our guide on outdoor furniture cover buying guide for more detailed comparison.
How do I know what size grill cover to get?
To know the exact grill cover to get, measure the grill itself in inches. This includes the full width including side shelves, the depth front and back, and the height to the top of the lid. Enter the exact size you measured in our form. Do not round up the numbers in the measurement; we will add the slack.
Do grill covers cause rust?
Yes, a grill cover can cause rust; however, not when the grill is dry and the cover fits well. Rust usually occurs in grills when there is moisture on the metal. Therefore, we recommend that you always allow the grill to dry before you cover it to avoid rust. Near the coast, wipe the grill down every week to remove salt and moisture (Consumer Reports).
Is it okay to leave the grill outside in winter?
Yes, you can leave the grill outside in winter, but with a good cover. However, before you leave the grill outside in winter, make sure you clean the grill, let it dry, then cover it. Disconnect the propane tank and keep it outdoors or in a detached shed, not inside your home (Consumer Reports).
