Your travel trailer is your home on wheels, and you’ll want to keep it shiny and in perfect condition for your travels. However, cleaning can be daunting, especially for new owners. The nooks and crannies in your vehicle can harbor dirt and grime, which, if neglected, can affect its structural integrity. The dust and muck can also carry germs, which can cause you to get sick. Most of all, a dirty camper looks unwelcoming and uninviting, which you want to avoid at all costs.
Here are a few things to consider when cleaning a travel trailer. Read on to learn more, and for more information, contact your preferred camper dealership RVs and Boats For Less.
Exterior Cleaning
When cleaning your travel trailer, rinse off the exterior with a water hose, then use a mild soapy solution and a soft bristle brush to scrub any stubborn stains. Pay extra attention to the hard-to-reach areas and rinse your vehicle again to remove all soap residue.
Interior Cleaning
Once you’ve cleaned the exterior of your travel trailer, get inside, starting from the top and working your way down. Use a vacuum with a brush attachment to clean any cobwebs or dirt from the ceiling and walls. You can sweep the floor and wipe down all surfaces with a disinfectant cleaner.
Bathroom Cleaning
Next, you want to give special attention to your bathroom by scrubbing the toilet with a cleaner designed for RVs and using a soft bristle brush to clean the shower and tub. You also want to use a window cleaner to help cleanse the mirrors and windows. If you notice any mold or mildew, seek the help of a professional mechanic to treat it, as it can indicate leaks that have gone unnoticed.
Kitchen Cleaning
Finally, you want to clean the kitchen by clearing bins and containers, removing everything from the cabinets, and wiping down the surfaces. You also want to organize your items and refill supplies before your next outing.
