    Storage Compartment Organization

    We just traded in our Grand Design Imagine 2970RL travel trailer for a Forest River Sunseeker 3010DS Class C motorhome. The TT had a large "basement" under the bedroom with room for several large, plastic storage tubs as well as a ladder, grill, blower, etc. The MH has multiple smaller...

    Gear storage

    I recently traded my 28’ Salem in for a 2280ESP. Obviously there’s a huge difference in storage areas. What do folks carry in their pop up trailer for camping?

    Extended fuel storage

    Has anyone added/upgraded the fuel storage capacity of a DX3? Mine is a 2017 and the wife wants me to investigate adding enough capacity to drive from central Texas to the blue ridge mountains of NC without having to fill on the way. Don’t ask why, it is not for me to question :-)

    RV Diesel Fuel Storage Question

    Every year I full up my 2013 Solera RV with Diesel fuel (26.4 Gals) and place into storage here in Florida. Then around six months later, I take out and travel. Today I had a conversation with a knowledgeable Diesel mechanic, and he told me due to the low sulfur fuel I was doing all wrong on my...

    Storage level

    We are wanting to build a storage pad for a 30 ft travel trailer in our property. We can level the RV pad but the towing vehicle will be uphill to hitch up RV from the pad. Is this ok or does the tow vehicle need to be level too? Thanks.

    Winter Storage - Outdoors

    Hello all, For the past three seasons I've wedged the HW296 in to the garage. I love the indoor storage, other than it completely consumes space the I like to use for work and other projects. I'm contemplating storing outdoors this season on a side yard. Pros/Cons? If you store outdoors, do...

    New "real" mattress, bag it for winter storage?

    Greetings, We just bought a new mattress for our trailer and for the first time since we've owned it we're deciding whether or not we need to do anything to protect it from nesting mice while it's closed up for the winter. This mattress, unlike the previous one, is a "real" one, so it's a...

    Mesh cover over trailer in summer but what to do in winter

    I have looked at some of the responses about trailer covers pro and con. I am probably in the con camp because of the moisture and the hassle. BUT Since I store my trailer amidst a bunch of pine trees, I would like to keep the sap off the roof (as much as possible) and also the needles. A...

    Basement storage lights fuse blown?

    I have a 2013 Georgetown 378xl. I shorted out the basement storage light on the driver side. The passenger side is OK. I've been searching fuse after fuse trying to find out which one I may have tripped. Is there an inline fuse that I could be missing? Thanks

    Keys for storage compartments

    We bought a used 2016 Forest River camper. It did not come with the keys for the storage areas. It is equipped with the Lippert slam locks. I have even called a locksmith and he has been unable to figure it out, How do I find out what keys I need to order or do I need to replace the entire locks?

    Storage cover suggestions?

    Hi All! I have an Forest River Flagstaff AFrame and it's stored outside. I have tried the RV covers the dealer sells and that lasted a few months, $100+ lost. Last year tried a 16ml poly tarp, also shredded pretty quickly (but more cost effective, even if I have to replace every year.) Was...

    locks on storage spaces won't open
