Planning a caravan trip? Here’s how to organise your caravan and make the most of small spaces. Try these storage tips for caravans on your next road trip!
Planning a road trip is exciting but also comes with a unique set of challenges. How do you fit everything in a caravan?
The key to organising a caravan is to find innovative ways to make the most of the space. Here are my top tips!
store food in quality clear containers
Keep out insects, moisture and help prevent spills by keeping your food in sealed containers. Clear storage containers are the best option so you can see what you have at a glance and easily grab what you need. These slim containers are perfect for small spaces.
collapsible laundry basket
Collapsible laundry baskets are ideal for camping and caravanning as they fold completely flat so can be tucked away to store, saving you space (and your sanity!). They are actually really handy to carry anything, not just when you’re doing laundry.
divide your drawers
Customise your drawers by using drawer dividers. Not only will this help keep everything organised, but it will stop movement and cushion your items when you’re on the road.
use ‘dead spaces’ for storage
hook it
use a dish drying mat
Kat’s tip: Label everything! Having labels on your pantry containers and other items helps you to find it quickly and also put things away.
moisture absorbers
pack only what you need
It sounds like a great idea at the time, but will you really need that puzzle or cocktail shaker? Stick to your packing checklist because the less you take, the easier it will be to keep everything organised. Check out this great checklist for caravanning with kids.

collapsible storage
Stock up on storage options that will fold or collapse down. Collapsible storage boxes are fantastic as they can be flattened for travelling or when not being used. I love these foldaway stackable storage baskets, because when you stack them, they turn into drawers! The sliding drawer function makes it easy to access your items. Use it for clothes, shoes, medicines, toys, hats/sunglasses/sunscreen or whatever you need.
If you’re heading off on a caravanning adventure, have fun while you’re getting organised – I know you’ll really appreciate the forward thinking once you hit the road.
Happy travels!
