In a cover member storage structure that allows a user to manually move a folded cover member from a roof into a box in the vehicle interior, the cover member storage structure includes: a tray (30) on which a folded cover member (12) is placed; and a guide means (40) for guiding and supporting the tray (30) so that the tray (30) is moved from the first position (P1) at the rear side of the first rail (11b) to fold the cover member via a rotating position (P2) to the second position (P3) in the vehicle interior. The tray (30) is swung between the first (P1) and the second (P2) positions via a damper (37), and the guide means (40) includes: the second rails (41) along which the tray (30) is guided from the first position to the second position; and a biasing means (44) for biasing the tray (30) toward the roof position when the tray (30) is moved along the second rails (41).
