Making the most of every bit of space is key when you’re living in an RV, especially in your closet. Here are some brilliant organization tricks to turn your RV closet into a place that’s both practical and looks great.
Add Organizers That Fold Up
Organizers that fold are super handy and can be used for anything from clothes to sheets. They’re a must-have in my RV because they can change to fit whatever I need to store.
Add Panels That Slide
Panels that slide can hide extra storage areas. I’ve used them to keep things I don’t use often out of sight, keeping my closet neat and tidy.
Put up Shelves You Can Move
Putting in shelves you can move around means you get to set up the space just how you need it. I’ve had a lot of luck with these in my own RV, and they let me keep everything from neatly folded clothes to little storage boxes.
Give Tension Rods a Shot for Shoes
A simple tension rod can do wonders for organizing shoes at the bottom of your closet. It’s a total game-changer for keeping your shoes tidy and where you can easily get to them.
Use Furniture That Does More Than One Thing
Furniture that can be used for more than one thing, like storage, is perfect for RV living. I’ve added benches with hidden storage to give me more places to put things.
Take Advantage of Hanging Organizers
To really get the most out of your RV closet, hanging organizers are a game-changer. From my experience, they’re ideal for stashing clothes, shoes, and even those smaller bits and pieces without making the floor a mess.
Use Clear Containers So You Can See What’s Inside
Clear containers let you see what’s inside without opening them. I like using them for things I use often to save time and trouble.
Give Storage Nets That Hang Overhead a Try
Storage nets that hang from the ceiling of your closet use the space up high, which is great for light items. They’re a good way to store things like hats and gloves.
Add Baskets Under the Shelf
Baskets that go under the shelf create extra storage by using the space below your shelves. I use them for light stuff like hats and scarves.
Use Wardrobe Inserts That Get Bigger
Wardrobe inserts that expand can change to fit the size of your closet, giving you storage that can change with your needs. They’ve helped me customize my storage as my needs change.
Use Shelf Dividers to Stay Organized
Shelf dividers help you make different sections on your shelves, which makes it easier to keep things tidy and easy to find. I think they’re really important for separating different kinds of clothes.
Give Closet Rods That Turn a Try
Closet rods that turn make it easy to see and get to your clothes by swinging them into view. This clever idea has made using my wardrobe much simpler.
Use Vacuum Bags for Clothes You Only Wear Sometimes
Vacuum bags are great for packing away those big, seasonal clothes like coats. I’m always amazed at how much smaller they make everything, freeing up so much closet space.
Add Drawers That Pull Out
Drawers that pull out make it easy to get to things stored at the bottom of your closet. They’ve been very helpful for keeping my closet organized and easy to use.
Add Pegboard Panels
Pegboard panels are great for organizing small tools and accessories. I’ve put one on the inside of my closet door to make the most of the space.
Get a Thin Hamper for Laundry
A slim hamper that hangs up keeps dirty laundry out of sight and saves space. Hanging it on the inside of the closet door is what I always do.
Choose Hangers That Layer
Hangers that layer let you hang more clothes in the same amount of space. This simple trick has doubled the amount of hanging space I have!
Put In Wire Cubbies for Strength
Wire cubbies are super strong, which is great for when you’re traveling in an RV. I love them for keeping heavier things that need to stay put while we’re moving.
Add Bins That Slide Out
Bins that slide out are a smart way to get to things stored in the back of your closet. They’ve been a big help for me, especially in those hard-to-reach areas.
