I have a double city mini. I'm not looking for a rain cover. I'm looking for something to cover my stroller when I leave it outside. It doesn't fit inside my house open so I would need to close it each time. I'd want to leave it outside covered.
I've seen people have a tarp type thing with an elastic or draw string.
Does anyone know where to get such a thing or what size I would need. Like I can buy one made for a lawn mower or something.
Ok any advice welcome
Anon because I've been asking everyone I know.

Go to Wallyworld and buy a tarp and some bungie cords to keep it in place.

That is an option but I prefer something that has elastic and draw string internally along the hem. If I'm trying to put it on quickly or with a baby crying I don't want to be busy with bungee cords.
I appreciate the suggestion though.

I'd call around to upholstery shops, awning manufacturers or folks that sew boat canvas and covers.See if you can provide them with the tarp, cut to fit, hem edges and have them set grommets and make you the drawstring. Or have them make it from something durable like Goretex. I had a shade triangle made for my patio, it was a custom size and it only cost me $39 made from Sunbrella, the local shop did a great job reinforcing it and did an excellent job on providing hardware.

Maybe call the manufacturer. Or look on their website. It may exist on eBay. You could ask someone who has one where they got it.

Thank you goodmorning and the happy wife...
your responses were really helpful. So far I've been folding it to bring it inside... But I will look into both those options. I really should measure it... so I can know what size would work best but both your suggestions look great!!
Many thanx!
