While the RV can be a great way to enjoy the great outdoors,
let’s face it: sometimes the inside can
feel too cluttered. So how do you get the most out of your RV so that the
inside of your RV has enough space to feel like the great indoors? Here are a few RV storage ideas to maximize your space!
Use Vertical Space
One of the top mistakes new RV owners make? They completely
ignore vertical space. In an RV, it’s
easy to maximize your horizontal space—which means you can quickly run out of
room. But here are a few ways to get the most out of all three dimensions:
- Wall-mounted
magnetic strips. A magnetic strip can hold kitchen items—but make sure you
get a strong one, because you don’t want any dangerous materials flying around
if you’re hitting some hard curves in the RV. Consider taking these down while
traveling. - Magnetic/dangling
jars. Jars with spices and other RV-friendly contents can be hung
vertically with the right magnetic materials. In short: get lots of magnets. - Use
dispensers, not counter space. A paper towel dispenser hanging from the
ceiling can be a convenient way to handle the issue without using up valuable
counter space. - Hang up
frequently-lost items. You can buy Velcro stickies to easily add and remove
your TV remote control from the side of a shelf or even the TV.
Your RV is a treasure trove of surfaces—doors, shelving, the
inside of cabinets. To get the most out of your space, buy some easy hangers,
Velcro products, and magnets. These inexpensive RV storage ideas can really
help your RV space open up.
Create “Kits,” Not
Single Items
One of the best ways to ensure that you have everything you
need in your RV—without using a lot of space—is to create a kit. For example, consider buying up the
products you would need for an RV cleaning kit.
This is better than keeping around random bottles of RV cleaner. Want a head
start? Here are a few items to keep in your RV cleaning kit:
- Suds
Gallon. Or if you want a more portable version, opt for the Suds Quart. - Stainless Steel
Cleaner comes in a handy spray-on applicator bottle for ease of use. - Mildew Remover is
great for when you’re not quite sure what’s causing that “one smell.”
We also sell the Git-Rot® RX for
Dry Rot kit.. Just
keep them in the box and store them away for a rainy day.
Get Creative
To create extra space, you have to think outside the
box—quite literally. But don’t sacrifice any function along the way. When you
package your kit-ready items together and start using the vertical space in
your RV, you’ll find that your RV isn’t just better organized. With these RV
storage ideas, your RV will be a more welcoming atmosphere in no time.
