Indoor essentials & Just for fun
Now, let’s go inside! Indoor essentials are not much different than you would need in sticks & bricks, but you do need less of them. We still use our cooking ware and utensils from home, but we would recommend getting unbreakable dishes as this will save a lot of stress & mess.
Indoor essentials
Stick cordless vacuum - we use this multiple times a day and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s small enough to store easily, has multiple attachments for hard-to-reach places and is powerful.
Steam mop or Swiffer mop - for daily maintenance, we use our stick cordless vacuum but every few weeks, we try to do a deeper clean on the RV and clean our floors with a steam mop.
Unbreakable Microwave Safe Dishes - don’t take glass dishes into an RV, it won’t make the first trip!
DVD player (and a few DVDs to keep in the RV) - you might not always have WiFI or cable and rainy days happen.
Air purifier - RVs are not always made with the best materials for air quality, so we have a small air purifier to help.
Cooking ware - this is what we have in our RV and we find that we are able to cook just about anything with these items - pots (one small & one large), skillets (one small & one large), baking sheet, 8x8 casserole dish, 9x13 casserole dish, silicone muffin pan, mixing bowl/hand mixer, plastic mixing bowl set, silverware set, cast iron dutch oven, small set of reusable containers (to store leftovers), coffee cups (2), a few other cups for water (brands like Rtic, Stanley, Yeti, etc. travel well).
Linens - dish towels, blankets, sheets (we have 2 sets for each bed), bath towels (we have 2 per person, just for when it’s laundry day), hand towels/washcloths
Just for fun
Travel USA Map Sticker - you’ve gotta keep track of where you’ve been and this is a fun way to do it!
Plants! They are decorative, make your RV feel more like home AND are great for helping with indoor air quality.
Rugs! This makes the RV feel a little more like home and adds a pop of color.
