Caravan Storage Solutions

Cooking, Eating & Kitchen Accessories.

 

1.

Find a place off the bench top or out of the pantry for your fruit. I hang these bags on a hook, they can hold a surprising amount of apples and oranges. When your not using them, they fold down really small for storage. Kungsfors Net Bag.

2.

A collapsable stainless steel and silicon colander that is super stylish too. Klockren Colander.

3.

A great space saving idea. By using a dish drying mat, you can eliminate the need for a dish drying rack. I use one in my caravan and I think it works really well, especially as sometimes the van can be a little un-level. It does prevent the water from running along the bench top too. Nysköljd Dish Drying Mat.

4.

This basket can be used for anything you want really. As its a bit prettier than your average storage box, I have this basket on display in my caravan kitchen. Made from steel and birch veneer, its also a sustainable storage solution for your van. Risatorp Basket.

5.

These plates and bowls are made from tempered opal glass making them lightweight and easy to handle. Personally, I prefer bamboo, but for those of us who prefer the feeling of a “proper” plate, these glass ones come close to the real deal. Oftast plates and bowls.

6.

This bamboo chopping board is small and lightweight. You can use it as a chopping board AND a cheese board for happy hour. Aptitlig Bamboo Chopping Board.

7.

Protect your dry food from moisture and going stale by storing them in these sealed dry food containers. I’ve used these for cereal and the great thing about them is that the lid is really secure and I’ve never had to deal with any accidental spillages. IKEA 365+ Dry Food Jar With Lid.

8.

Collapsable silicon colander. This one is a bit lighter than the previous one and doesn’t have handles, making it a little easier to store. This is the one that I travelled with and I love it. Klockren Colander, silicon.

9.

These shelf inserts come in two sizes and create more magical space inside the cupboards. There is even the option to screw them permanently into place. Made from steel, these inserts are another sustainable way to add more storage solutions into your van. Variera Shelf Insert.

10.

A lightweight bin that can be attached to the inside of your under sink cupboard door. Variera Waste Bin.

11.

The grater is flat, which makes it easier to store in a limited kitchen space. IKEA 365+ Grater.

12.

These spice mills are compact and super durable. You can adjust the size of the cracked peppercorns and salt. If you’re worried about travelling with them because they are made from glass, they fit perfectly inside a beer cooler and can be completely protected from knocks (speaking from experience here). IKEA 365+ Ihärdig Spice Mill.

13.

Protect your bench tops and your camping table from heat damage with these lightweight cork pot stands. They come in a 3 pack but I’ve only needed to use one for the caravan. When I needed an extra pot stand, I’ve just grabbed my little bamboo chopping board. Too easy! Heat Cork Pot Stand.

14.

A magnetic knife rack is a brilliant idea for a caravan. Get your knives off the bench, out of the drawer and onto the wall. Kungfors Magnetic Knife Rack.

15.

This is the magnetic knife rack that I have in my off road caravan. I place my Scanpan knives on it, plus my scissors. The knives stay in place while travelling, but I do need to put the scissors in the drawer on corrugated roads as they sometimes like to wiggle their way off. I can not rate having a knife rack in a van highly enough! Hultarp Magnetic Knife Rack, Black.

16.

This stainless steel kitchen utensil can be hung on hooks or will stick easily to a magnetic knife rack. Grunka 4 Piece Kitchen Utensil Set.

17.

This dishwashing brush has a suction cap and I just think its really clever. Another solution for keeping items off the bench top. Rinning Dish Washing Brush.

18.

Save space and weight by using bendable chopping boards. I’ve used these ones in the caravan for a year and they’ve held up really well. Finfördela Bendable chopping Board, 2 pk.
