Our tips for saving space in a motorhome
Travel light
Choose a trip in motorhome, When you leave home, you accept the restricted, nomadic lifestyle that goes with it: so it's important to concentrate on the essentials, not the superfluous. So before you leave, it's a good idea to sort through your personal belongings. Keep only the bare essentials, and only the items or clothing you'll need. For essentials, such as household products, remember to use reusable products and limit the use of different cleaning products. For example, use white vinegar, bicarbonate of soda, black soap and Marseille soap. These items take up less space than a two-litre bottle of cleaning product.
Optimise your interior storage
All the tips you need are inside your motorhome to save space. For example, use the inside of your furniture doors to optimise storage space, by attaching coat hooks, hooks or Velcro to hang small items. Don't forget the backs of seats, which can also be used to hold small practical items such as umbrellas or water bottles. Make the most of clever storage solutions such as storage nets or magnetic bars, which can be used to secure metal utensils in the kitchen, for example.
There are also storage units that can be hung from the ceiling of your motorhome for towels or light objects to save space.
Pack stackable items
To save space in a motorhome, you need to opt for compressible and stackable items. You can use vacuum bags to store clothes and sheets. Stackable plastic or silicone bowls and cups are also practical, as they take up little space when stacked on top of each other. Think about space-saving camping equipment too, such as folding chairs or pots and pans that can be folded or have their handles removed.
