Space Saving Ideas to Have the Perfectly Organized RV

Are you ready to prep your RV for the season? When you begin moving into your rig and remember the clutter that got to you last year, it is time to think about what you can do differently. The secret to a stress-free journey is a well-organized space.

Step 1: Inventory & Routine

Start by making an inventory list of every item you have on board. Once you see the full list, take a hard look at quantities—do you really need 12 drinking cups? Paring down is the best way to create extra space. Once you’ve cleared the clutter, develop a routine: a light daily cleaning and a weekly deep clean will ensure everything makes its way back to its designated “home spot.”

Kitchen & Cupboard Hacks

• Maximize Vertical Space: Use free-standing drawer units in cupboards. Secure them with bungee cords while underway, or invest in RV-specific latched versions.
• Nesting & Stackable Items: Swap bulky sets for stackable nesting mixing bowls and dish cradles to save massive amounts of “cabinet real estate.”
• Clear the Counters: Use hanging baskets or mini-hammocks for fruits and veggies. A roll-up sink rack is another essential space-saver.
• Square Over Round: Replace round storage canisters with square ones to maximize every inch of your cupboard corners.

Clever Storage Solutions

• Magnetic Strips: Mount magnetic strips for knives or small jars. You can even add magnets to your cutting board to tuck it up under a cabinet when not in use.
• The Ceiling & Walls: Screw mason jar lids to the ceiling for hanging storage. Use pegboards for pots and pans, and door-mounted trash cans to keep floor space clear.
• Nifty Thrifty Ideas: Use a magazine rack to store canned goods (it keeps them from rolling!), or mount a paper towel holder to hold your roll of garbage bags.
