Mine just goes into the garage. However, I started doing something last winter. I fill a 2 gallon watering can from my garden, and keep it in the garage, to rinse off my bike if needed. That way, I don't have to fuss with the hose, which I have to shut off because the pipe freezes. Before winter, I coat the steel parts with a spray that leaves a waxy residue. I warn people not to touch my winter bike, if they want to stay clean.
