I believe that all life styles are different so what may be essential for us may not be essential to you.Here are some things that I truly think all van lifers should have once they hit the road to make their life a little more easy.

- our TOP 10 Van essentials-

1. Extra Power Bank; Great to have extra/backup power, weather it’s for an emergency or to hang outside and work

2. Solar Shower; it’s a perfect way to wash up or cool down outside on a hot day if you are a lil too remote

3. Handheld Vacuum ; Van life gets pretty messy and having a easy and fast way to clean it up is so helpful

4. Velcro; keeps things in place even when we are driving (BEST THING EVER FOR VAN LIFE- VELCRO EVERYTHING!)

5. Toilet; even if it is just a porter potty like ours, it is so useful and helpful to have a toilet at your beck n’ call

6. storage/organizing bins; keeps you organized and allows everything to have a home in your home

7. Folding Shovel; Need for emergency shit-uation or in case you’re stuck and need to dig out your tires

8. Awning; protect you from the sun which helps cool down you and your van. plus it truly opens up your living space

9. Hooks; we now have these everywhere, they help give things a home and easy to put away

10. step stool; if your van doesn’t already come with a step outside it makes getting inside your van easier
