Get yourself some non-slip shelf liner and line your kitchen RV shelves with this stuff, it's great! Keeps things from sliding while you are traveling. I find that it's helpful to keep the cabinet that my glasses are in packed full, then things don't have any room to fall over!

To keep canned goods and boxed goods, get yourself some plastic baskets at the dollar store. Measure your cabinets first! The dollar store has a great variety of baskets.

I found some great bottle organizers in my Home Trends catalog and ordered a couple, they work great.

Home Trends has a lot of great kitchen organization items that work well in an RV. The over the cabinet hangers etc. are great!

Good luck, have fun!

Our cabinets are so full it is not possible for anything to move or tip over.

We just got the new fiver and are enjoying setting it up for our first trip. The question came up this evening of how do you store your drinking glasses when you are travelling? We have some plastic tumblers that would be sure to fall over and move around if not held down some way. How does everyone else do it? Also where do you store them?


The only glass we have are the coffee mugs that are just stored in an above counter cabinet. The few glass, glasses like a juice glass and small wine glass we stow those in one of those six pack cardboard carriers like for glass bottled beer/pop, etc. In over 35 years and some 150K miles towing, I don't think we ever had anything break in the cabinets. We also line the shelves with the rubber non slip stuff.

Those Styzz products work great! I have the mug and the glass holder, wouldn't trade them for anything. The mugs and glasses stay right where I put them and the cabinet isn't that full either!

I use the rubber shelf liner material on the bottom of the shelf. I put the glasses upside down on top of it. In the over 10 years doing that I have never had a broken glass.

The shelf they are on, is full with glasses, coffee cups, and other glass dishes and does have a spring rod across the front. As the shelf only has a 1/8" lip at the front.
