Tips for Experienced and Inexperienced RVers Alike

I always enjoy hearing tips from fellow RVer’s. It seems that everyone has a particular way of keeping things in order, clean, and safe. Here are a few tips that I have found incredibly useful in my travels. This is also perfect for a new RVer!

• When packing always store heavier items lower down and the lighter items on top. This will keep things steady while you are actually traveling and less headache once you stop.
• Many people I talk to prepare many meals ahead of time and then freeze them. (See our freezer meal recipes blog for great ideas) This allows you to spend less time in the kitchen and not have to pack as many ingredients and still be able to enjoy a home cooked delicious meal.
• Put moth balls near the propane lines of the water heater and refrigerator. This will deter spiders from entering your RV.
• To keep bugs from crawling into your RV put small amounts of vaseline around entry points. They are unable to crawl up the slippery substance and therefore stay out.
• The person I received this tip from was unfortunately speaking from experience: but be sure your awning is securely fastened before you hit the road.
• When you park your RV park in shady locations and use your awning to keep the inside cooler.

These are just a few of the tips that I have collected but we’d love to hear any that you have!
