If you are like the majority of the population, we have so many things on our mind, that we often forget the many items that need to be completed before spring/summer RV season hits. Here is a checklist to assist with taking some of the pressure off.
Exterior
Inspect Tires: Check the pressure, tread, and any signs of wear and tear.
Wash and Wax: Give the exterior a good wash and wax to protect the paint.
Check Seals and Joints: Ensure there are no leaks in the roof, windows, and doors.
Awning Check: Extend the awning and inspect for any tears, damage or mold.
Interior
Deep Clean: Vacuum, dust, and clean every nook and cranny.
Check Appliances: Test the fridge, stove, microwave, and other appliances to ensure they're working.
Plumbing: Run water through all faucets and check for leaks. Don’t forget to sanitize the water system.
Restock Supplies: Make sure you have all the essentials - first aid kit, toiletries, food, and camping gear.
Mechanical
Battery Check: Inspect the battery, clean the terminals, and charge if necessary.
Fluids: Check and top off all fluids - oil, coolant, brake fluid, etc.
Engine and Generator: Start them up and ensure everything is running smoothly.
Lights and Signals: Make sure all lights and signals are functioning properly.
Safety
Fire Extinguishers: Check that they are fully charged and not expired.
Smoke and CO Detectors: Test the alarms and replace batteries if needed.
Emergency Kit: Ensure you have emergency supplies like flashlights, batteries, and basic tools.
Final Touches
Decorate: Make it cozy with new cushions, curtains, or decorations.
Plan Your Route: Make sure you have maps, guides, and a rough itinerary.
Entertainment: Stock up on books, games, or whatever helps you unwind.
There you have it! Just imagine, soon you'll be on the open road, ready to enjoy the freedom and adventure that awaits.
