Below is a checklist guide to reference when preparing to break camp.
Preparing the motorhome for travel will require several small tasks. Properly
securing and storing items will help prevent them from getting lost or being
damaged during travel.
Outside Checklist:
• Disconnect the cable TV, lower the television antenna and (if
applicable) the satellite dish.
• Disconnect and stow the phone line.
• Retract the awnings and secure them for travel.
• Close LP-Gas tank valve. Check the level of the LP-Gas tank to
ensure a sufficient amount is available.
• Connect the sewer hose.
• Drain and flush the holding tanks. First close the grey water valve,
run enough cold water down the sink and shower drains until the
grey tank is at least 50% full. Be careful not to overfill or flood
the grey tank. Next, open the black tank valve allowing the drain
cycle to complete. If applicable, connect a non-potable water hose
to the No-Fuss hose bib and flush the black tank system. Close the
black tank valve, open the grey water valve. The water from the
grey tank will help flush the solids from the drain hose.
• Disconnect the sewer hose, flush hose with clean water from
non-potable hose, store the hose. Install the sewer cap.
• Fill the fresh water tank (using the potable hose). Disconnect and
store the fresh water hose. Remove any hose protected water
pressure regulator from the city water faucet.
