RV accessories and RV camping recommendations 2022? A combination of freedom and adventure, recreational vehicle life is amazing. But there are many aspects that can be optimized, to make your RV life even cheaper. You need a clothes hamper! Smaller or even collapsible hampers work great. We’ve found collapsible hampers work best for us because we have limited space in our rigs, but if you have a larger, more spacious interior, you can certainly use a traditional hamper. Hangars waste a lot of vertical space around the hook. These hangar travel trailer accessories are much ‘shorter’ and don’t make your shirts drag the bottom of a short closet.

Campers have few spots for knickknacks and decorations, but RVs can also be notoriously sterile looking. You’re going to want to take some things to make your little home cozy and inviting. For example, use rugs to add color and soften up your space. Plants can also add life and vibrancy to your home, and help purify the air. I had two hanging plants in our minuscule camper, and they made the RV feel cozy. We hated not having any art on the walls, so we ended up decoupaging small printouts of our favorite pieces right on the walls. You can also use 3M Command Strips to hang up prints or photos or invest in a digital picture frame. Remember, though, the shaking that a camper goes through while traveling can be intense, especially on bad roads. Quakehold is useful for securing things (like artwork and small plants) so they stay put.
Some folks drive their RVs solo, and although I can’t say much about hitching and unhitching a motorhome and car combo, our good friend Bob has found a great way to hitch and unhitch a fifth wheel trailer solo. He marked the front landing leg that’s near the extend/retract button at regular intervals all the way up and down the leg. Hash marks on a landing leg help get the rig back to the right height before hitching up. Then he numbered each hash mark. He keeps a pad and pen in the hatch near the landing legs button. When unhitching, once he’s raised the trailer to where he can drive the truck out from under it, he jots down the hash mark number that is visible on the leg. Then he drives out, parks, and returns to the trailer and raises or lowers the landing legs as necessary to get the trailer level.
Storing your RV cover back into its protective bag has always been one of the most frustrating things to do. When you get a new RV Cover, it comes folded perfectly and packed tightly in a nice little storage bag. Once you’ve removed it and used it though, folding the cover back up perfectly and packing it into that storage bag is nearly impossible. Frankly, I think it’s a waste of time so I’ve come up with a better approach. Buy a large plastic garbage can with wheels on it from your local home store, With your cover on the ground, fold it up as much as you need to, then stuff it in the can (It doesn’t have to be perfect), Put the extra straps and stuff that came with the cover in the can on top of the cover, Place the lid on the garbage can and roll it away until the next time you need it
One In, One Out: This rule applies to anyone looking to prevent a build up of “stuff” in the RV. The “one in, one out” mentality changed the way we shopped. A trip to Costco meant we bought what we needed at the time, not what we think we might need in six months. Just because there’s storage space doesn’t mean it needs to be filled. A minimalist approach to RV living worked the best for us. Once we got the hang of it, life became much more enjoyable. We no longer had an “explosion” of stuff when we camped somewhere for a week or longer. It ended up becoming a “one in, two out” policy naturally and the bonus for us was saving money.
Now that you know what you need and the cost, you need to determine how you will finance your living expenses. Getting a job that allows you to work remotely is the biggest challenge when it comes to living full-time in your RV. If you have a job, you can find out if you can work remotely before you hand in your resignation letter. You will have to completely convince your employer that you are more efficient working at home than in an office. You can also show your employer that you can still communicate efficiently through Skype and other platforms and be willing to put in the work.
