When your MoHo was new to you - how did you decide what went where... and is it still there in it's original home.
Have you ever done a re-organisation, emptying all the cupboards just to put it all back in slightly different places?

In my current MoHo I've got stuff in fairly logical places [I think] but none of the cupboards were full.
When I get my new PVC, I'm dreaming of being a bit OCD with storage neatness...
You know - "a place for everything, and everything in it's place".
Plentiful use of

for underbed stowing...
My latest thought as I was walking Kerry Hound around the muddy field is that boots will have their own storage box, living - during travel in the under the bed stowage area but when pitched, and the passenger seat swiveled, the boot box can be on the cab floor for ease of access/use...

Do I need to get out more :whistle:

:rofl:

No, storage is important and you should never let your other half pack it or you will never find anything!

...only on every trip :whistle:

I've got drawers, tubs, tins, felt containers, snap lock boxes, over-the-door-16 pocket hanger, zipped bags and holdalls. This time I have a garage space so I'll also make use of a boot net that came with a car a few years back.

But it'll still be shuffled around before each trip - as messing about in a MH is so much better than going to work ;)

We're between MHs at the moment, and have decided that we ought to pay proper attention to payload on the new one so we're having to think very carefully about what goes where and what stays at home.

For starters if it's not been used on the last two trips it's not going back in. I think we may have to manage without water :)

Long time
Only a part of my 'stuff' is in its original position, I regularly turn out the storage spaces and throw bits out, rearrange, and sort out, it's the only way to keep on top of what's where!
We live in the van so everything has to be in its place!

Last van within a couple of trips we had sussed out where to keep everything. This one, has a massive garage but nt nearly so much usable space inside the van. Once bike, table and chairs in the garage, we are nearing rear axle payload. Still trying to sort everything else out nearly 2 years on. If I could persuade John to wear crumpled cothes i would shelf the wardrobe and be sorted. Till next time I went out lol
