RV for the Holidays: Overcoming the Space Challenge

Living in your RV over the holidays will present a few unique challenges, but will also be amazingly rewarding. Here are a few tips to help you weather the challenges of the holidays in your RV.

One of the greatest challenges of an RV is the limited space. During the holidays, with all of the shopping and gift giving, the space can seem even more limited. When you plan what gifts to give, you may want to choose items that are easy to store in the space that you have. This means purchasing smaller gifts.


Many stores have options for shipping directly from the store. This is a great option for RVers since it doesn't require any storage. Online shopping is one of the best ways to take advantage of direct shipping. You can also make your purchases and then take them directly to mail them, in order to avoid using space in your RV.

In addition, you may not have space to store the supplies you need to do all of your gift wrapping. You would need to have wrapping paper, ribbon, tape and other items in order to wrap all of your gifts. However, if you do not have space for these items, you can take advantage of the gift wrapping options that many stores offer. Even if you need to store these wrapped gifts, you won't have to store all of the items for gift wrapping.
