Actual length including hitch?

My Airsteam is 2k miles away and I’m looking at local storage units for this year. Airstream lists the exterior length of my 25’ as 25’11”. I am assuming that does not include the hitch or rear bumper. Does anyone have suggestions about how to estimate the actual total length of the trailer?
Thank you

A 25' Airstream is 25' 11" total from bumper to ball.

Assume it's 26' and you will be good.

My 25' is a little longer than its specified "overall length" in the owner's manual by a bit, but it's close. My 34' was similar, just a little longer that the specified "overall length"

To measure I parked on concrete and used a carpenter's level to plumb down and mark the concrete at front of the hitch and at the rear of bumper. Then I moved the trailer and measured between the marks.

All Airstream lengths are from the back of the rear bumper to the front of the hitch ball socket. Most, if not all, SOBs list the box size and the rear bumper and hitch are not included. So if a park says up to 22', a 25' Airstream has about a 22' foot box.
