How we prepared for our Rv road-trip, ideas to help you with yours!

 

Traveling in an Motorhome preparation

Are you ever 100% ready to take a trip? How about Road trips? Are road-trips in a RV an exception? I totally think so!! It helps relieve my anxiety about forgetting things!! I think as long as you have essentials then you’ll be ok!!  Why do I say this??  Well it’s a lot like camping, but it seems like more is required because you are taking your home with you everywhere you travel but while Rv-ing you can stop & pick up any essentials you need!! See You bring  along your cooking stuff, clothes, bathroom & shower stuff, vehicle stuff & I like to make some meals ahead of time!! Nothing  wrong with eating out  but if you’re frugal or on a budget & you forget something that can be purchased at the grocery store or Walmart, you just pick it up & you’re good to go!! These were my thoughts as I was scrambling to put everything in the Rv!! 

Things to bring on your Motorhome/RV Road-Trip  

  • cooking utensils, pots, pans (I found I absolutely love using a pressure cooker/instapot) so I brought this along on this trip!! Another tool I absolutely love is my garlic Press!! IKEA has one of the best!
  • paper goods- paper plates, bowls, paper towels, napkins
  • plastic silverware 
  • food-canned, & refrigerated items 
  • bathroom toiletries 
  • towels 
  • clothing.. yours & the families 🙂 I usually have everybody pack their own 
  • hubby packs his tools for maintenance & repairs 
  • emergency kit include a tire plug kit including wrenches & sockets & especially one that takes off lug nuts
  • 12 ton (hydraulic) jack or jack 
  • air compressor 
  • Newer Spare tire, (not an older one)

On this Road Trip we planned on visiting The Grand Canyon, but came across some other special places like Canyon de Chelley, Zion National Park & Mt. Rainier National Park!! 

Rv/ Motorhome Meal preparation 

I love having meals prepared so that while traveling, you can get the nourishment you need, don’t have to expend energy cooking  & you don’t have to stop for a long time!! 
On this trip I also prepared breakfast sandwiches for the start of our trip, because  we were leaving at 2am 🙂 I just bought English muffins! Scrambled up eggs, added onions & seasoning & waaa laaa!! They were out in the fridge put together & microwaved in the morning!!

On this trip I purchased food containers at Burlington coat factory but you can purchase at Walmart or shop on Amazon for them as well!! They are so helpful to have on hand 🙂 & of course I had to pick up a few outfits to Bring along! Again Amazon or other places like Burlington would do!!

 

With everything in the motorhome 🙂 our coffees ready to go, sandwiches wrapped in foil for when we get hungry, we’re off for our summer adventure! Buddy, the Dog & all!!

Safe travels friends!!
