And how do you organize your camper, RV, or van? Well, no need to worry! We’ve got the top 4 ways you can get your RV organized without getting stressed.
Eliminate All of Your Excess and Leave It at Home
After a couple trips, you might realize you don’t need everything you brought. But, it already has a place in the RV and you haven’t eliminated it yet. This might be a good time to take a few steps towards getting rid of the excess. Here are a few things to help with this process.
Don’t Let Fear Help You Pack
Fear has a way of persuading us into needing more things with us than we actually do. The fear of every situation can carry a lot of baggage on our trips—and there is a difference between being prepared and being afraid.
RV Storage Hacks & Organization Can Start at Home
If you are traveling for a week or two at a time, you can use your home as a staging ground. Instead of using your RV as a storage locker that is like playing a game of Tetris when you need something, create storage bins at home for each type of trip.
If you are heading to the mountains versus the lake, there are two different types of extras you might bring. Stage those in storage bins at home, leave the appropriate space in your RV, and just bring the one or two you need. And quit playing Tetris inside your RV.
Be Realistic
After traveling full-time for multiple years, RVers realize you don’t use everything you bring. Being realistic in what you actually use—not what you wish you used—can go a long way in eliminating excess. And once you eliminate excess, you might be shocked at the space you have.
