Here are some little known RV camping hacks to make road trips easier

Parking

For RVs with slide outs, keep an item on hand that is the same width as your slide so you can easily measure if your slide will fit.

Boondocking

Use Campendium and iOverlander to find incredible FREE, dry camping destinations with awesome views.

Water

Fresh water tanks should be sanitized with a mixture of bleach and water at least once a year or after taking the RV out of winter storage.

Driving

Always adhere to the safe following distance. Allow 1 second of following distance for every 10 feet of your vehicle length.

Storage

Always fully charge and then disconnect or remove RV batteries before storage, so they do not die.

Sealant

Use painter's tape to make sure sealant lines around windows and doors are straight

Winter

Any more than a few inches of snow can cause roof damage. Brush snow off with a broom, but leave ice where it is.
