Storage Ideas

The single best thing we did to improve storage in our 179 was to open up the cabinetry beneath the stove.  We cut an access hole just inside the door and added slide out shelves.  Completely transforms the cabinet into usable space.

We have done several storage related changes that help for our long distance trips.  We purchased a multi-pocket shoe bag that is made to hang over a door.  We cut it off at the height that we wanted and screwed it to the side of our microwave cabinet.  It has about 10 pockets that we use for lots of stuff-flashlights, keys, suntan lotion,. bug spray, sunglasses. long nose lighter, etc.  we also use a lot of clear plastic boxes available at Wal mart to store thigs so we can categorize them.  they fit in over head cabinets stacked on top of each other.  We installed a clothes hanging rod in our bathroom at the top of the wall to hang our coats and some clothing.  The rod is easily removable if needed.

The best thing to do is try to take only what you need.  this makes storage a lot easier.
figure out what you really need to take and then try to determine where you can keep it -what has the most use is the easiest to access.  Take less and make sure that almost everything you take is really used.  At the end of the trip, look at what you didn't use and really decide if you need it.

I have been all over websites looking for storage ideas. You need to be creative in r-pods to figure out to solve unresolved issues, i.e. kitchen wall use, bath wall use, bed wall use, etc. Would appreciate to hear how you have introduced efficiency into your R-pod....I have a 2016 179.
