When prepping for a trip, I use a vacuum sealer (we love our Food Saver) to package portions of dry goods, fresh or frozen meats and fish, leftovers, and cheese to save space and keep things fresh longer. I make casseroles, spaghetti sauce, and meatloaf, then freeze in RV freezer-sized rectangular containers, remove when frozen and then vacuum them.
Wow lucky those who travel with you. I took a remote kayak/hike trip with a company in Alaska and they vacuum sealed amazing meals stored in bear proof containers. Roughed it outside but ate so well. Great tip.
@@Michelle-bw1xg Thanks, Michelle. Sounds as though you have great outdoor adventures.
I have been using a Food Saver since 1998 the containers are great and 95 % of everything in the freezer is in food saver bags
Love collaboration videos with other TH-camrs. Thanks for sharing
Thanks guys for letting us join in the fun! I hope we meet up again with you guys soon!
For sure! Thanks for joining us for this video! We have LOVED hanging out!
Thank you for the tip about making veggies last longer with the paper towels & then replacing them & reusing for cleaning ! Awesome 😊
We thought they was a great tip too!
Mods and Hacks NEVER get old even the ones we know about but forgot because it's all in the timing of when the right hack saves the day. Thanks to all for sharing - "small is better" but not in the number of mods and hacks ...
Great video with lots of wonderful mods & hacks 🤗 Thank you for having us on this video & sharing our mod 💝
Thanks for sharing with us!
I'm looking at the bonus hacks from the lady with the clear bins. I think what I like even more than that, is how she lined the back of her cabinets with the silver insulation! We use it on the windows to cut the heat....never thought about it for the cabinet heat. Very cool idea!
Love the fridge/veggie hacks!
My best mod is using a Camplux campground on-demand water heater to give me endless hot water (until the propane runs out) with campground or external water is available. Now there is a choice between hot water from the tank or the Camplux with the turning of a valve. Requires a knowledge of plumbing.
It looked like Phil & Stacy also had Reflectix inside their cabinets on the outside wall. I’m trying to think of other ways to insulate the rig, for instance we get a “breeze” from under our slides. I might get some insulation blankets cut to size under my slides and attach them with Velcro when setting up. Rob
We use pool noodles to block drafts from under our kitchen counter & sofa on our slide. It also keeps cat toys from getting pushed under.
Another tip…her a sou vide and put your prepare your frozen food with all seasoning then put the entire frozen thing in the pot with the sou vide and then you can leave it to cool. It will be PERFECT every time. Did I say perfect? Yes. Perfect
Love these collaboration videos !! Safe Travels guy's ❤️
So fun to meet all the new folks and seeing all the incredible hacks! Thanks so much!
Great video with some great ideas. It looks like you all had a great time together!
Love the couple from Our Everyday Get Away. Phil and Stacy too
Cool mods and hacks. LOVE the Texas tee! 👍🏻
Great hacks!!! Good for "small home" use too!!
Great tips! Thank you!❤
Thank you for the video. We love all of the ideas people gave us that will be so helpful!
Love all the tips. Great to see on one place. Watch all you guys . Appreciate this video. Great job
These hacks are so great! I’m excited to get another rig again(sold ours earlier this year). I especially loved the food tips because as a brand new RVer…that was a huge issue last year for me.
I set produce out and let it dry before placing it in my containers, with paper towels. I can keep cilantro for two weeks. Fresh strawberries for up to ten days or more....Dry is so important. I've done this since I got married in 1978. I'm a Master Food Preserver with the Ag Dept of UC Davis trained. Have fun on the road everyone!

Awesome video!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I'm getting so many ideas! Now to find my rig!
LOL! I bought a 2021 NuCamp 320-S (tiny teardrop) trailer and while I waited the 2 months for delivery, I started purchasing storage and decor items based on memory from looking at one on the lot. When my trailer arrived, I realized I had purchased waaaay too many things and some things that didn't fit. 🤦♀️ But I was so excited after watching so many videos, I couldn't resist! 🤣
Great Video! Thanks
I Loved this Video it was Awesome and the last Couple was so cool and cute love all the hacks. Great job.

You two are FUNNY!
Love your videos!
Thanks for watching
Great video, thanks 👍👍👍👌
Thanks for watching
Very much enjoyed the content 🖖🏻👍🏻😘🙏🏻
These are some very excellent and helpful veidios. However, they have reached a point of upper class millionaire RV'ers that exceed my KISS standard.
Great lists from all the TH-camrs. A shout out to Turn it up World. Nice seeing you both again. Deana and Duane
Thanks for watching! We so loved connecting with Dave and Tonya!
Can you post a link for the clear bins that Stacy & Phil showed. Especially the shoe bins
I was coming to ask the same!

@@GratefulGlamper thank you so much 😊
@@GratefulGlamper Thank you!!!
I just moved into my RV, I gave my sister the RV mattress she uses it as a topper, i bought a nice mattress 8 month ago and did not want to part with it.
Great video. Veggies are good.
Phil and Stacey Rock!
We agree!
For Chris and Aaron, I’m wondering if they take the plastic bags a step further and reuse or repurpose them or throw them in the trash? Thank you.
I always like your RV hacks so many good ideas. You taught me about Five below stores. I’m preparing to go full time after loosing my mom this year. I have a beautiful fifth wheel I’m thinking of a class what are your thoughts about buying used I’ve seen some beautiful ones I know I very thorough inspection trying to make the right decision. Thank you for all your help tips and information your positive energy and your fun. Wishing you a wonderful day from Porter Ranch, California.
Thanks so much, best wishes and so sorry for the loss of your mom. That’s super hard.
Oh yes for privacy
Great video guys! But you missed something big. Alaska didn’t have an appearance. 😂
Love your videos, but have questions about switching fridges. All of our research says you must switch wiring. The difference from AC to DC requires a much bigger wire to be done safely. That has stopped us from making the switch to date. Everyone should check their wiring before making this upgrade.
Hey there, you won’t necessarily need to change wiring depending on your application: The couple we spoke with that installed the 12 volt fridge used the same 12awg wire that was connected to the old fridge and just added a fuse. The wire size safety specs for our Dometic DC4101 are as the following from the manual. “ Wire Size
Maximum Length
Wire Size
13 AWG2
8.0 ft (2.4 m)
8 AWG
12 AWG
13.0 ft (4.0 m)
6 AWG
10 AWG
20.0 ft (6.1 m)
Wire Size and Maximum Length
13 AWG is up to 8.0 ft (2.4 m)
12 AWG is up to 13.0 ft (4.0 m)
10 AWG is up to 20.0 ft (6.1 m)
There is a link to their install video: th-cam.com/video/jBB-QUwKmW4/w-d-xo.html
If you want the RV to seem less like a “cave” and to have more light, paint the woodwork white 👍🏻
Good point. White really does lighten things up!
How do you go about sending one of these vacuum packed mattresses back????
When you exchanged your mattress for a firm one, how did you handle returning the medium one? Were you able to roll it up?! So curious :)
RV Mattress had us donate the medium firmness one.
What make and model is the 12 volt refrigerator in the one video? Thanks
Hi, I just saw your video for Lectric XP3.0. You are talking about eBike rack ...what did you buy and did it worked? We have a Sprinter Van and we do not know which rack to buy ;0)
I really enjoyed the video and all of the ideas. Just curious, where did you meet up with all of the other youtubers?
We were all working on a project together
Chris is the most popular name in RV’s.
I immediately replaced my stock mattress to sleep number mattress.
How did you return/ exchange your mattress? How did you roll the return one back up
RV Mattress had us donate that one that was not to our liking.
I would love a link to Stacy’s clean bin shoe holders…I can’t find them on Amazon!
Yes, please. Would love the link to the clean bin shoe holders, also. Thank you!

Well your mattress sounds great but I have a dream cloud with 365 day trial. Some times 120 days may not be enough if you have injury's like I do. Hitting the pavement sometimes at 180 mph, I was a Motorcycle Racer, makes sleeping difficult so the extra time, I hope, will help decide what level of mattress I need. Can't and would not on your channel recommend anything, except this may be important for people with injuries. I can say I have not decided yet. But hopefully the extra time will help.
How does your mattress fold when you bring in your slider.
In our slide out the bed is fixed and doesn’t fold
You have mentioned a couple times that you didn't like your first new mattress and got a replacement. What happened to the other mattress? If it was returned to Brooklyn Bedding, then please describe the return process including how the mattress was prepared / packaged for shipment. Thank you.
Brooklyn Bedding had us donate the mattress we didn’t like and we found someone right away who needed it and was willing to come pick it up. The new ones come rolled up in a box for easy transport
@@GratefulGlamper Thank you for the reply. Is that scenario typical? Safe travels!!
Link to clear shoe bins from You Me and the RV? I need them in my life.
yes exactly
What brand fridge did you get
Aaron and Chris got a Dometic 12 volt fridge
Like your tshirt are you from Texas
I have to say … we tried rv mattress ( Brooklyn bed) and we were not happy. Have a memory foam at home and it just wasn’t comfortable. Felt worse the og mattress. Not great!
What was the name of the fridge
Is there a link to the stackables Stacy showed?
Yep in the description
I didn’t catch what kind of refrigerator that was , make and model??
I found it at Home Depot
It’s from Dometic
I invested in a vacuum packer, ziplocks can leak
This is awesome! How do you make a living?
We are entrepreneurs and own a business we work from the road.
So amazing!!! Love it and your videos, thank you!!!
Brand and model number of compressor style fridge?
The Dometic?
The 2nd set of youtubes talking about the produce and leaving the fridge open the whole time was giving me anxiety lol
😂

Was this some kind of TH-cam conference? How did you happen to be with all these vloggers?
Hello! Sure enjoy watching your channel! Asking for HELP PLEASE! Since watching this video last evening, I have spent at least 2 hours on Amazon searching for the storage bins that were in the closet of You me and the RV, and I am not finding anything even close! Can you please help us find those!!! I have searched their Amazon page as well as yours. Would solve a HUGE problem for us! Thank you for posting such great content! Any help is much appreciated! :)
Bins in the overhead: amzn.to/3ekR6xo shoe bins: amzn.to/3ekRI6a
@@GratefulGlamper You Rock!!! Thank you!
Interesting tips. The only bummer is Turn it up has devolved into clickbate titles/thumbs and that’s a big turn off for the TH-cam community
Does no one recycle????
We do every chance we get and many times I actually being recycling with us until I can find a recycle container.
ALL manufacturers of RV’s should be embarrassed. They put in complete garbage for mattresses, whether it’s a $20K travel trailer or a $100K toy hauler. We’re talking about a couple of hundred dollars if they signed a quantity deal with mattress manufacturers. Even if they pass the cost on to us, it would be so much better than the joke of a mattress they all put in. It’s really disgusting what they do. Wish there was a manufacturer who had balls to change the industry and put in mattresses that people can actually sleep on. That will never happen unfortunately…HORRIBLE!
chris and aaron: "and you're not wasting anything...."
Actually, you are. All those single-use plastic bags.
Washable plastic airtight containers would be better, but of course, it's all about fitting everything into a smaller fridge.
I usually try to wash and reuse my ziplocs, but I only wish they were more durable and last longer.
Have you looked into purchasing Silicone Reusable Food Storage Bags?
Initial cost is a bit expensive, but overall cost savings may be worth it.
If you drink to get drunk you are an alcoholic. If that’s the case don’t kids deserve a better life?
Totally, where are seeing talking about getting drunk in this video?
This video was boring. Only useful if full time.
Famous RVers??? Lol ….
Stacey you were not being a good example to children. You should know better than to not climb or stand on furniture. LOL.
😂
This might not be the right video to ask this questions… what are cool activities that you would like to see at campgrounds ?
We enjoy when there is a walking or biking trail.
