Fall is the most important detail of the year — it's what protects the rig through months of sitting.
What should you do to an RV in the fall?
In fall, remove summer bugs, tar and sap, wash and inspect the roof, wax or seal the exterior, clean and fully dry the awning, clean the interior and remove all food and moisture sources before storage.
- Bug and tar removal on the front cap
- Roof wash + inspection
- Wax or polymer sealant
- Dry awning before rolling up
- Interior clean-out
