- So we need to actually make a run to the Home Depot
to get some stuff for our RV renovation.
But, we thought that while we are here
there is no better time than to show you
the top things that you need for your RV
that you can get at your local Home Depots.
These clear totes are perfect for RV living and RV life.
We have several of these.
And to put all of the things that you wanna put
in your storage compartments, right?
So for us in a class A in the basement compartments
we put things in here like a pair of jumper cables,
any extra fluids for the rig, some ratchet ties,
some bungee cords, just like those miscellaneous things.
You don't use it every day, but putting it
in a clear tub so that you can see what's in it,
and you're not guessing about what's in it or where it is.
And then we take it a step further on ours
and we just put a little label across it.
But these are perfect.
You can see actually what is in it 'cause it's clear.
And this is actually watertight
so if you end up with any sort of water intrusion,
or anything like that, it's nice and watertight.
There's also two sizes.
So this is a 70 liter.
And then here is a 50 liter.
So a little bit smaller on this size tub
versus this tub, which makes it great for RV life.
Because that means whether you have a travel trailer,
or a fifth wheel, or whatever you have for storage,
one of these bins most likely will fit
in whatever storage space that you have.
So this is our pick number one
for things you can get for your RV from Home Depot.
So one of the must haves for RV life is a headlamp.
Now I cannot tell you how many times
that having a headlamp has come in handy.
Especially if the dumpster for the RV park
happens to be any length of distance
from where you are parked.
Putting on a headlamp to see your way around at night
to go put the trash in the dumpster
has been completely invaluable.
So headlamps are great for that.
They're also great for if you need to go out in the dark
at any point in time to check on
anything outside of your rig.
So we keep one of these inside of our rig
right above where the door is to exit.
So if you need it, it's right there, super handy.
And I can't tell you how many times we've used these.
So this is absolutely a must have for RV life.
And so this is pick number two for things
you can get for your RV from Home Depot.
So pick number three of things that you can get
for RV life from Home Depot.
Now this is something that you need to have with you
regardless of how new or how old your RV is.
Because as you go down the road, and your RV moves,
things are going to come loose,
things are going to possibly break.
So we recommend every single RVer carry an actual toolkit.
Now, and what I like about these from Home Depot
is there's a couple of options.
This one is a 76 piece toolkit and it is 40 bucks.
Or you can step up to the larger toolkit
that is 137 pieces and this one's 50 bucks.
They both come in a nice sturdy case.
And you want some sort of basic toolkit,
screwdrivers, pliers, a hammer,
all of these types of things when you're on the road.
You're gonna end up finding something
needs to be tightened at some point or fixed.
So you want to make sure you have a basic tool set with you.
And just decide what size set you want.
But one of these is great for RV life, highly recommend it.
So this is pick number three,
things you need for RV life from Home Depot.
- [Man] The Home Depot app is just amazing to find stuff.
So check this out.
You go to the Home Depot app and then you
just start typing in the item you're looking for.
And the cool thing is that it tells you
what aisle and bay that it's in, so.
- [Woman] So this is aisle 46 bay eight,
or aisle 47 bay seven.
And see 46, we're right here. - Yup.
How cool is that?
- [Woman] So our next pick for RV life, pick number four,
you can get at your Home Depot is some Flex Tape.
Now we carry some of this on hand
because if you have any sort of issue where
you get a snag in the roof of your rig,
anything like that at all,
and you need to prevent water intrusion
while you're out and about, some of this
will take care of that in a pinch.
Now this isn't a permanent fix.
If you have a leaking roof,
don't go throw a bunch of Flex Tape on it.
But this works great in a pinch.
You're out on the road, you're traveling,
you snag a tree branch pulling into a campground
that's got a tree branch that's low, this will help.
So carry some of this.
Super inexpensive at Home Depot, it's 13 bucks.
Keep it with ya.
So Flex Tape, pick number four
for RV life that you can get at Home Depot.
So pick number five of five things you can get
for RV life at your local Home Depot.
This is the one that we have used over and over again.
And so we have a high rate of repurchase
for this particular product.
And that is Gorilla Tape.
Now this is not your normal duct tape people,
no, this is Gorilla Tape.
This is taking duct tape to a whole new level.
We have used this for so many purposes
from taping up the tow bar on the back of our RV temporarily
to get it up and out of the way
when it didn't wanna fold away.
We have used this in so many places
throughout our RV when something
just needs to be held together for a while.
So my joke at this point is that our entire rig
is held together with Gorilla Tape and zip ties.
Small exaggeration, but only a small exaggeration.
So Gorilla Tape, absolute must have,
better than duct tape.
So this is pick number five for things that you need
for RV life that you can pick up at your local Home Depot.
So we absolutely love Home Depot for RV life,
but also for anything home improvement-wise as well.
Now this is not a sponsored video.
Home Depot did not ask us to come film this,
or say anything positive about them.
We just honestly love being able
to pick up what we need for anything.
So as of right now, the taping of this,
we are knee-deep in an RV renovation project.
We're picking up some of the supplies
we need here at Home Depot.
So it's great for anything that you might need,
RV renovation-wise, mods and upgrades-wise,
anything that you might need to pick up.
So the wonderful thing is, is these are all across the USA.
You probably have one in the local town
that maybe you are in right now.
So make sure that you stop in,
grab what you need for RV life.
Also, don't forget to hit that subscribe button,
ring the bell so that you get notified
every time that we release a new video.
And we'll see ya on the road.

This has come in handy for so many reasons.
(vacuum whirring)
As the guy vacuums.
It's awesome.
