How long does it take you to put it away?

It only takes as long as backing into the driveway. I clean it before we leave the CG.....

I clean the PU before we leave the CG.  I only open the camper up at home when we go home wet, or I have a repair to do.  The clean bedding and towels get put back into the camper through the access door as soon as they are washed.  It takes about 2 hours to do a complete clean up/pack down at the campground.  Often I put a lot of things away the night before we leave, but I still clean it the day we are leaving.:)

We've been doing the "break camp fast" version and then come home, open the PUP up and let it air out for a day.  While it's up, we empty/clean/restock, and then close it up and park it for real until the next trip.  

I guess that's my doing because when it's time to roll, I like to get going.  We've put some effort into making the PUP self-sufficient (like Wayne) so that it has everything it needs, and all we have to add is food and clothes.  So far, that's working good.

Hey, Todd, I recognized the building in the background of your photo and realized who you are. We're in the Old Town area, too. (We live by Doug and Debbie, I remember them saying they know you.)

Funny, huh?

We store our clothing in a fashion similar to wavery.  We have two 3 drawer Sterilite carts that just fit under the bed in the aisle when we fold up (without the rollers).  When we set up, we put the carts on the counter next to our bed.  It works out nicely--No suitcases in the way.

As far as putting the trailer away after a trip, we try to do it as soon as possible as long as it is dry.  Living in the rainy Nortwest, and not having a port to park our PUP under, we are careful to dry the trailer completely before putting it away for extended times.  We do have to wait sometimes for the weather to cooperate.  If all goes well, we can get the PUP cleaned, dried, and tucked away in less than a couple of hours.  Wish we had the luxury of a car port to store it under.
