Storage & Organisation
Small spaces get messy fast. Smart storage — nets, bins, hanging organisers, under-bed drawers — is what separates a comfortable camper from a chaotic one. Think vertically and use every dead space.
Cargo nets on the ceiling or walls hold lightweight gear (clothes, towels, maps) without taking floor space.
Stackable storage boxes (Really Useful Boxes) that fit your under-bed space are the backbone of car camper storage.
Magnetic strips for knives/tools on the wall. Hooks everywhere. Bungee cords for securing loose items.
A hanging wash bag or shoe organiser on the back of a seat creates instant pocket storage.
Audit what you actually carry — be ruthless, every item must earn its space
Map your dead spaces: under-bed, door pockets, above windows, behind seats
Install cargo nets on walls or ceiling using screw-in hooks or suction mounts
Build or buy under-bed storage drawers/boxes sized to your platform
Add magnetic strips to walls for metal tools, knives, bottle openers
Fit hooks for coats, towels, headtorches, dog lead
Use packing cubes for clothes — much easier than rummaging in bags
Keep a 'go bag' with essentials (torch, first aid, phone charger) always accessible
