Nice set up! My husband and I also travel in our Dodge caravan. We use a freezer and cooler set up too. We have 4 freezer packs that we rotate so I keep two in the cooler and two in the freezer. This way we don't have to plug our cooler in unless we're driving. Our bed is right up to the back door so we store our food in the back floor compartment and we also removed the seats in the middle so we now have a basement for extra storage for our laundry, shoes and solar panels. Our clothes are kept in bins under our bed for easy access. We also have a pop up screened tent that we cook under or hang out in when its raining. I love seeing what others are doing with their minivans. Wishing you safe and happy travels. 😊

I do the same with the freezer packs. I alternate them, when one is in the cooler the other is in the freezer.

I'm learning something new every video! LOVE the table! I do not have the space for a bunk bed, but it's a cool idea! Love the fabric on your window covers, too!

Anyway I 💕 like your build and the bunk bed idea is great even if you're alone... Enjoy your travels and enjoy traveling with your family. I use to travel with my parents alot, I have three girls and when they were young we all traveled together and we use to have a blast Best Trip was from Missouri to Oregon Anyway loved your Van fix..keep it up...!!!

So good to see you out there enjoying yourself thank you for sharing all your tips and ideas!! I have a 2009 caravan no build I put together last summer I talked to my friend into buying a box trailer and doing a no build and he ended up buying that disco matic bunk bed for him and his son he got the extra large model.... It never occurred to me that a smaller model might fit in a minivan I usually travel alone but you hit a home run with that overhead storage I'm going to have to look into this.... If you sleep on the bottom and use the top for storage you can keep the floor of the van way more organized and utilize it for other things like sitting and watching a movie!! That is so smart thank you so much for all the ideas!!

That is exactly why I wanted to keep my floor open so on days with bad weather I could sit there and edit. The Disc O Bed fits surprisingly well in the Caravan.
