For a van, it looks huge, tidy, and comfortable on the inside. Both of you know what you need; all items / nooks are functional. Love how you made your garage spacious (and that you have a 'secret doorway' from the inside and the space for laundry basket). PS. I wonder why I don't see a lot of van built with your kind of shower setup (shower rods, extendable clothesline, pocket storage). It's very convenient. ✨

A way around this definite irritation is to load the bottom half as normal (of-course, non-squishy items). Then the top items can be loaded into several bags, such as plastic, string hammocks, or even the larger left over plastic containers from food items like fruit. Think ones you can see through. Then it's only lifting out a small number of containers instead of individual items. Always keeping "standard" items, such as mayo, in the same spot on the bottom will mean only "digging" down to that one known spot.

@@sethwoot Wow I love that idea with the solar shower! We'll have to look into that more as an option, cause as you say, the resources are there, might as well use them! Thanks for the feedback!!

This is almost my ideal shower at the back of the van. Slide out heavy duty board that then hooks on to the edge of both doors, so you don’t stand on the ground. Then a very short awning that comes out covering the top to only the edge of the doors from the roof of the van if it rains, if not then you can shower in open sky. And lastly a shower curtain that wraps around the rectangular space your in. Or to be safer and avoiding strong winds, can also install a fold out panel from the doors to connect and lock. So you basically have another extra opened space from the back of the van that can also be use for a projector screen to binge movies during camping with friends.

Great. I love that toilet. You just have to be sure you wouldn't need to visit the toilet when you have a guest! A closet to me is a necessity! Outdoor shower is great but try create an indoor collapsible shower tent like I've seen some vans have, for times when it's not possible to bathe outside. Love the laundry chute.
