For Beginners: RV BOONDOCKING Basics!

[@barryfletcher7136]

I was a Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Explorer Scout. "Leave it cleaner than you found it" was beaten into me long ago.

[@immasher2139]

It's not be beaten into us, but doggone it, it is common sense people!

[@vweavere]

Nice job, guys. We would add that you should use a sieve to screen gray water to remove crumbs. Crumbs attract scorpions and scorpions attract snakes. Don't need to feed the wildlife!

[@j.raynes6218]

You may want to reject me - but when boondocking, we put a trash bag in our toilet and pour in some kitty litter. It lets us use black water tank for grey water. Controls any odor problems. Is changeable as needed. Seems like a "no brainer"!

[@AcmeRacing]

Even when we're not boondocking, we take "Navy showers" in the RV. Get wet, saturate a washcloth, then turn off the water. Soap yourself up and shampoo your hair, then turn the water back on just long enough to rinse. We only have five gallons of hot water, so it's not like we could take long hot showers anyway. I smiled at the comment about heavy socks in Bean Boots. They have room for thick wool socks if you order your usual shoe size. They were designed for hunting season in Maine, and the sizing hasn't changed much since 1912.

[@kristymichael]

We always take Navy showers too (our hot water heater only holds 6 gallons).

[@epiccoloradokhrisstclair7789]

I carry a rake and construction grade garbage bags... we clean up our area and try to go beyond our own area... “better than we found it”

[@wendys.5488]

Good for you, really! Not everyone does this. We also pick up trash when we find it, as we're cursing - Who Would Do This!!!???!!!

[@piedmontpengwing]

Thanks

[@ptcclatlptcclatl1683]

Your comments about people leaving trash are spot on. We've always followed the rule, leave nothing! The only thing we leave in our camp sites are tire tracks.

Wearing a knit skull cap while sleeping helps. Keep your head warm, and your body will stay warm. Your head is almost always exposed while sleeping.

[@RSL-c9f]

Feet, head and hands...grandma always said! I feel ya!

[@elzipperooo]

We use a small bucket and a long handed back brush in the shower. Fill it with water and body soap. Get wet. Then you can dip it and scub. Then rinse. That small bucket goes a long way. If any is left use it for the toilet.

[@mp3ief]

Heat holders are great, thanks for turning us on to them. Tip - get a nice thick, high quality down duvet. They will keep you super warm at night. We’ll never sleep without a down duvet again!

[@Flierted]

Two or three miles from Alabama Hills is BLM Tuttle Creek Campground. There is potable water and a dump station there. When we stayed there it was $8.00 per night.

[@mybackyardparrots9198]

I was living out of my car for a couple of years. It really wasn't as bad as one would think. Anyway, I always kept my medium shoulder length hair clean - just dampen a face towel - add a DOT of shampoo - rub the towel between your hand until you see just a smidgen of soap visible. Take that towel and rub it over over your head and towards the ends. Your hair will be damp, but not dripping. Put a couple DROPS of conditioner in your palms & smooth it over your hair. Run damp towel over it lightly. Towel dry, or let it dry naturally. You will probably wind up using a cup of water for the whole process - damping and rinsing. Stop wasting water on your hair. I remember a few times I actually cut my own hair & dyed my hair outta my car. Ah, good times :) Quick bath: in a public bathroom, or in my car - spray bottle, bit of body wash, or shampoo, face towel - wipe face, armpits, hoohah & butt. Thorough body cleanse was done 2, 3 am - inside my car. Shades up.

A beach umbrella by the campfire on a cold night is a wonderful way to stay warm! Just don't get it too close to the campfire or use it in heavy winds.

[@canadianwarrior2108]

If you actually think PPL need the warnings you added, we are doomed as a species!

In conjunction with the paper plates, use vinegar water in a spray bottle to clean pots and pans. They wipe clean and you don't need to use any water.

[@joycemoses2411]

cslay06 What is the ratio for vinegar to water? Thanks!

[@cslay06]

@@joycemoses2411 Hi Joyce!! My wife and I have experimented a little. . .we use 50-50 vinegar and water. You could probably get away with 1/4 vinegar to 3/4 water. It's amazing how little spray you need to wipe plastic plates and silverware clean. The key is of course, don't let your dishes sit around and get crusty first.

[@robynsineadsheppard6480]

I remember going camping with my family in 1960, when I was 10. Back in those days, ALL camping was boondocking! Tent camping at its best!

[@virginiaoverlander4720]

You can also use an outdoor shower tent to keep it out of your gray tank.

[@shanehanson7514]

We do this with a trash can and m67 immersion heater. Works wonders for showering in the boon docks.

[@dianaauerhammer5681]

And use non toxic soap like Dr. Bronners! Shower tents are great!

[@timosterhout6867]

We have seen the same trash problem this year. Sad to say it's not all newbies. Some of these people think that site has a cleaning service for the bathhouse so they act like they are in a hotel . What they have someone do that WRONG. Our rules. You brought it in!!! You take it out!!!

[@michaelquillen2679]

Good video. We were tent campers for 40 years. When boondocking, we always drink water we brought that is bottled or in jugs. The fresh water tank is for dishes or or flushing toilets. We always dump grey water on ground (the cattle haulers in this state slosh their cleanout water on the highway). We do sponge baths instead of showers. We also have a solar camping shower from our tenting days. Our 2000w generator keeps our battery charged (twice a day). We've never used our furnace...just use layers of quilts and wool socks! Trash? Pack it in; Pack it out.

[@squirrelsrus1]

One thing I try to do is instead of dumping your dishwater, try to use it for a #2 flush.

[@bobcole3852]

How you do dat? You step on valve to flush and it opens the "port" at bottom of toilet. We have a brand new Winnebago and there is no water shutoff on Dometic toilet

[@squirrelsrus1]

@@bobcole3852 After a #2, I like to fill the bowl back up with water by slightly pressing the pedal and then flush it to make sure I don't get a "poop pyramid". So when I save my dishwater, I can dump that into the toilet instead of using fresh water, step on the lever and flush it.

[@dross24MA]

@@squirrelsrus1 This trick of keeping a little bit of water in the bowl (just enough to cover the flapper) also keeps the flapper seal from drying out and keeps tank gas from seeping into the rig.

[@judycarter6055]

I wonder what pioneers crossing the west in covered wagons (original RVs) would say about today's boondocking 🤔🙄? "Honey get the block under the right left wagon wheel please while I disconnect the oxen" (typed in jest lol). Great suggestions.

[@girv]

Great point on trash! We're seeing lots of reports of trash on public lands up here in Canada as well. Take extra trash bags with you to help keep both of our countries beautiful!

Thank you for mentioning the trash problem. Nothing more discussing then to stop in a beautiful natural area to seeing human garage everywhere around. :-)

[@Milesco]

"Disgusting", but yeah, I agree.

[@chucknewman3445]

A drone is great for scouting boondocking sites before getting the rig in too far. Also, there are small battery powered pumps that allow easy water transfer from a jerry can to your tank. Your back will thank you.

[@Lotoja-x20]

I’ve always enjoyed your approach to sharing what you love to do. Nice to see someone sticking to what they’ve always done since 2006. :). Instead of buying a new rig or RV each year to try and drive interest to your channel. Or shameless attempts to try an monetize every aspect of their content. Keep up the good work!

[@frankcates3909]

Thank You for drawing attention to the problem of improper debris, trash disposal issues in this latest Boondocking episode. I live in a city where many folks just are not respectful of what to do about their trash. I go around my sidewalk/street area & pick up debris every day, or at least 5 out of seven days a week. So no one should be offended as you talk frankly about personal responsibility of keeping the lands clean. It's not only education, but a matter of caring that will keep lands clean., as well the air & water. While I can't make it out to those beautiful locations in the West, the scenic views you show are wonderful to see. Keep these vids coming. Camper Frank, Lynn, MA.

[@SouthernCal57]

I too carry a rake and shovel. Not only for boondocking but for State, County and Nat'l park campsites. Also, good idea to have a small portable air compressor especially for boondogling.

[@snowchel]

I laughed when I saw the Heat Holders! I LOVE them! No other socks or slippers compare.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

They are really fantastic!

[@robertpowers6727]

Battery management is the biggest issue, even with a generator and solar panels. At night, the battery will still be used by power stealers. Shut off the inverter, the water pump and anything else that uses power. We use the stick up lights all over the rv to save battery usage. As we know, if your battery, except lithium ion, goes under 50%, the battery will fail in a very short time, like a year or two. We try to use any area toilet facilities to keep black tank usage to a minimum. Very good advice here. California has the worst litter problem I have ever seen. Trash strewn highways are the norm.

[@richardkoch8752]

I gave my wife heat holder socks and gloves for Christmas.........I am VERY much on her good side for it :)

[@BK-dv1hh]

Trash....we always try to leave the campsite better than you found it! That works boondocking or campground sites. It doesn’t cost anything.

Take it in, take it out and then some. Learned from my father. Nice hearing it from other folks.

[@thewitmerexcursion]

Camp Suds is a biodegradable liquid soap that works well in hot or cold water. I find it takes care of greasy dishes nearly as well as Dawn, but rinses with less water and with far fewer suds. I've used it for showers and washing my hair too. It's one of the few things that we carried over from our tent camping days.

[@eurekamarijka]

Ditto! I also keep a teeny squirt bottle of Dr Bronners peppermint for body and dishes.

[@timgeorge8644]

Sean get a syphon hose from Harbor Freight ( the one with the Copper Tip and Marble inside) to transfer your water from the Jerry Jug to your tank . Put the jug on your tailgate and you wont have to hold the jug up or spill a drop :)..

[@Channel-wr3zk]

Have you ever used dehumidifiers for water collection? Naturally you may need to filter/sanitize. Just an idea for extending your water supply if you're in a humid climate.

[@TrishBenedict]

We love our Travato’s Truma Combi system. Combination hot water and heat. Gentle warm air. And it’s so quiet we can even run it at night and not being awakened by the fan. And it runs on electricity or propane. I think the Alde in T@Bs is similar. I wonder if you can burn some of the paper plates. Many of them are plastic coated and might be toxic to inhale - not to mention putting into the environment.

[@jerryhudson6454]

We went to Alabama Hills in October of 19. We were not aware till we got there that fires are not permitted from May through November. Other than that, it is a wonderful boondocking site! And as far as the trash thing goes, we always try to leave our site looking like no one was ever there. We've had to pick up other people's trash.

[@dadofmichelle]

East vs. West and Water: You mentioned that boondocking in the West is preferred, because you don't get so hot and sweaty, and therefore don't need as much water. I live in the Northeast, and although dispersed campsites are far more rare, getting water at one is rarely a problem. You do have ot haul out the grey water, but it's rare to find a dispersed campsite in the Northeast where water isn't nearby; most that I know of are next to a stream or river.

[@mer2633]

I've found1 gallon water jugs from the dollar store are easier to fit in small places and easier to lift if I want to put it in the freshwater tank

[@ricklashley2024]

Just wanted to drop a note about conserving water while boondocking, BABY WIPES!!!! They have changed the face of taking showers forever... LOL I also add a small amount of alcohol to the container, personal choice...

[@reginaldsmith7976]

I usually pick-up two Meijers Bags of trash at every campsite. My other complaint, barking dogs. I don't camp to hear dogs bark. 😎. As always good job. I enjoy your product.

[@morpheuszzz662]

Another option for keeping warm at night is to buy a rechargeable hot water bottle with a fabric cover. The one I have will stay warm for 8+ hours. Under your blankie, it will help keep you toasty. :)

[@dross24MA]

For personal hygiene, I recommend Aloe Vesta Cleansing Foam. It is widely used in nursing homes, is very gentle and requires little or no rinsing, your preference. It is available many places, both in stores and online. The particular "variety" I prefer has a circle with "1 Cleansing" on the bottle.

2 hacks that we used on our 2013 FC20: 1 solar… for less than $500 you can easily Cary 2 150W panels, attach them in parallel, add a Renogy voyager charge controller and when you stop, hook them up directly tot the batteries (we use lithium) in your trailer. You can get lots of additional power for very little $$. 2. For cell service, use a weboost. We liked the one with a cell phone cradle. It takes an unreliable signal and turns it into a streaming internet (200-300Kbs) connection. Then we also tether our phone to a router mounted in the trailer and we have Wi-Fi!

Make EXTRA SURE your CAMPFIRE is completely OUT with NO HOT COALS!!! One day outside Flagstaff, in a windy dry area someones large campfire log caught back on fire due to the brisk wind .

I've made an "hour shower" (recycling the shower water through a 7-stage filter and UV light) and I shower for months on the same 7 gallons of water. I've extended this to both sinks now and recycle all of the hand washing and kitchen sink water. It does take effort to remove any bits from going down the drain, but now I don't have any gray water. I can simply run a drain line into the wild and release purified clean water...

Another great video!! Thanks so much for all of your tips. A few additional tips to consider to stay warm: (1) use velvet plush fleece sheet sets that put the coziness of those fleece blankets under and on top of you then put another fleece blanket on top - they really help retain more of your body heat, (2) use hot water bottles with sweater covers on them - one by your feet and hug another like a teddy bear, and (3) a throw blanket with velvet plush fleece on one side and Sherpa on the other - the Sherpa side next to you really traps the body heat even more (you can usually find them at Walmart for around $15).

Once again, a great and informative video! Thank you for taking the time to do this!! We took a much smaller plunge in a portable boondocking package with the Lion Safari ME with expansion pack and 400w panels (another channel reviewed it last month). Although only a 2K inverter and a largish amp hour reserve, it makes for an acceptable boondocking solution. Coupled with your great recommendation about a generator and other smaller lithium inverters, the Lion Safari ME is a solution that may serve others that otherwise can't afford the huge "solthium" upgrade (either pro or DIY install). I'm not affiliated with Lion's products, but find it's a great solution that got us into boondocking at a much lower entry cost. I also appreciate the hygiene solution on the used T/P and surprised you didn't highlight the TOTO portable! While gross to us in the US, both are normal ways of life to most people outside the US. One way I'm thinking to use the T/P technique is to employ a "Diaper Genie"! Not sure how much space it will take up but that may serve as several solutions in one package!

I buy the long ones and put it on my discharge pipe. I push it about half the length up on yhe dischage, attach the hose and fole dthe extra back over the outside of the pipe.
