There’re a ton of smart storage hacks to organize your camper on Pinterest and Amazon but it’s easy to forget tyhat price doesn’t always equal value. Dollar Tree products can absolutely work better than high-end products in some situations. And simple items like bungee cords and peg boards remain popular for a reason: they work and they’re affordable.

The Best Storage Hacks to Organize Your Camper

The most common sizes for travel trailers and campers are usually between 20 to 30 feet in length and 8 foot wide. Fifth-wheel campers can range from 25 to 45 feet when combined with the towing truck. It’s plenty of space for just about any purpose but larger families or long term RVers or modern-day nomads may need to get create their own awesome storage hacks to organize your camper. Here’s a few of my favorites.

Dollar Tree Find

To be honest, I’m really impressed with the mop and broom collection at Dollar Tree. Each piece is sold separately so everything is replaceable and washable to an extent. Tik Tok seems to agree.

Peg boards are awesome and completely customizable. There are several designs and price points on the market so you can get as fancy as you want.

Designate Storage Zones

I read somewhere that the secret t organizing is being able to recognize pattern, traffic, and flow.

Put simply, figure out what the space is best suited for first and then devise a plan that makes it as useful as possible. Keep in mind that useful doesn’t always mean that it has the most storage.

Bungee Cords are Awesome

If you own a camper, you probably already know about bungee cords. I like them because they are surprisingly useful and the product loyalty for a stretchy rope fascinates me.

Fun Fact: If you are speaking about a musical note you use an H to spell chord. If you are speaking about a rope you leave the H out, spelling it cord.

A shoe rack by the door, towel holders by the shower, and tiny mason jars with matching lids screwed onto the bottom of a shelf or table are all popular camper storage hacks on Pinterest.

Stools and Ottomans

Can you believe that we used to have ottomans that didn’t have hidden compartments? Seems so silly to me now.

Furniture pieces like ottomans, benches, and desks with built-in storage compartments are great perfect for small homes, dorms, and campers too.

These DIY storage ottomans are a great example of multi-functional storage for campers:

Want to keep your food items in the kitchen but out of conventional space? Make your own with a hanging shelf system like the one in this next image. Just unhook whenever you need or don’t need it anymore:

These ceiling hanging storage shelfs are about $40 at camper supply stores.

Securing Bicycles to a Camper

Some bicycle hitches make me nervous when I pass them on a 4-lane going 75mph. Actually, most all bicycle racks for campers make me nervous. I don’t like seeing handle bars or even tires around a window glass likein the photos below:

I suppose my favorite design is something like this:

I have seen some rather creative ways to secure items like kayaks and bicycles to campers while living in an area known for its whitewater and mountain biking. If you pay thousands of dollars for a cool triathlon bike like the Quintanaroo models I see around here you’re going to want to secure it properly. They are sleek and lightweight but span several feet so securing them can be a little tricky.
