Caravan Storage Ideas for West Aussies

Travelling through Western Australia in a caravan is a dream for many, but managing space in such a compact environment can be challenging. Effective caravan storage solutions make all the difference, especially for families travelling with kids.

At Morley Canvas, we specialise in custom caravan storage options like cutlery rolls, tool bags, and protective covers for outdoor equipment. Our sister company, Carnaby Canvas, complements our custom products with a range of ready-made solutions to simplify your caravanning experience.

Here are some caravan storage ideas to help you make the most of your space and keep your caravan tidy and functional on every trip.

 

Maximising Kitchen Storage

A well-organised kitchen is the heart of any caravan, but space limitations can make it tricky to store essentials like cutlery, utensils, and cookware. Without proper storage, mealtime can quickly become chaotic.

It also includes a Velcro hook for easy mounting in your caravan or 4×4, ensuring it’s always within reach when needed.

Investing in efficient kitchen storage not only makes cooking easier but also keeps your caravan tidy, saving you from rummaging through drawers for essentials during mealtime.

 

Protecting Outdoor Equipment

Outdoor gear such as BBQs, generators, and camping tools are essentials for a caravan trip, but these bulky items can be difficult to store safely. Keeping them protected from weather and damage is crucial for maintaining their functionality.

Keeping Kids’ Belongings Organised
