Hi Shiraz, we leave as much as possible in van. All we need to pack is food, clothes and drinks....not necessarily in that order.....the drinks never get forgotten!

Cheers.

Thats why I look after the outside of the van, SWMBO packs the inside and each individual packs their own clothes!

No cross wires and no excuses if you left any clothes behind.

Oh..............and I say "Yes dear"............a lot!:kiss:

Nice list ROnEM.
Like BoD...we divided inside outside responsibilities.
And similar to Burnsey, we leave our van pretty well loaded.
Over the years we've built up a collection that stays with van.
Could probably just hitch and run and not be too light on for anything but meat, milk and veggies.
SWMBO replenishes and swaps open stuff for sealed when we get home. Wash, iron and restock clothes and towels etc. before cover goes on. I check and organize all the external bits and pcs (all have clearly marked carry bags). Recharge the batteries for drill, impact wrench and radios, etc. Empty/clean toilet, flush hoses, filter, etc. Just have to now remember to put the BabyQ back in the hatch (or maybe get another Q for home?) as its become addictive and spends time on the deck at home now.
Ditto for the Pathie. Its ready to roll apart from inflating the airbags and folding out the tow mirrors.
Use a little Citroen as a daily driver most of the time.

 

[Brad]

Yep, we are the same. All we need to pack extra is food, clothes and iPads.
