• Make sure it is clean, inside and out. You don’t want food left in the motor home or worms in the boat that will spoil.
• Check the fridges and cabinets. These things also attract critters, so either lock up your food in secure containers or take it home.
• Once parked, open the fridge and cabinets to allow air circulation.
• If you are leaving items with batteries, remove the batteries to avoid corrosion.
• Lubricate everything from door hinges and locks to slide-outs. If it moves, it should move freely.
• Liquids should all be checked. If they should be empty, remove them. • If they should be full, then be sure that they are winterized.
• Fuel and other engine liquids should all be checked, filled and treated. Start the engine to circulate the protectant.
• If the RV has a generator, be sure that the fuel in it is either drained or treated.
