Caravan trip packing list — fully prepared before you hit the road
On a caravan trip you carry your home with you, but arriving at the campsite to find a missing hookup part or kitchen item is a nuisance. Share the list through a room code with your travel companions, so it's settled from the start who brings what. No sign-up needed.
In short
For a caravan trip, first get vehicle papers, an electric hookup cable, a water hose, levelling blocks and gas equipment ready. A fire extinguisher, first aid kit, kitchen utensils, camp chairs, bedding and a torch are also needed. For electricity, water and gas connections, follow your vehicle's manual and ask a service centre about anything you're unsure of.
21 items go straight into your new room; delete what you don't need, add what's missing. No account needed.

Tips
How to connect electricity, water and gas differs between vehicles; read your vehicle's manual before the first trip and ask a service centre about anything you're unsure of.
Before setting off, check tyre pressure, oil and lights; load evenly and keep heavy items low down.
On arrival, park on level ground, steady the vehicle with levelling blocks and only then make the connections.
Secure frequently used items (torch, first aid, extinguisher) where they are easy to reach so they don't slide around while driving.
How it works
1. Open your room
Tap the button and the items land in a fresh room. No account, no email, nothing to install.
2. Share the code
Send the room code or the link to the group; everyone's on the same list in seconds.
3. Finish it together
Who's buying what shows up instantly; bought items get ticked, so nobody buys the same thing twice.
Frequently asked questions
How do you get electricity in a caravan?
Campsites usually offer a hookup point, which needs a cable and, if necessary, an adapter that suits your vehicle and the site's system. For the correct connection and safety, follow your vehicle's manual.
Why do you need levelling blocks?
A level vehicle matters for comfortable sleep and for some types of fridge to work properly. Steady the vehicle with blocks and keep within the limits given in the manual.
What should you do about gas and fire safety in a caravan?
Make sure the fire extinguisher and the gas and smoke alarm are in place and working, use gas equipment as the manual says and ventilate when using a hob or heater. If you suspect a gas leak, don't use the equipment and contact a service centre.
Can I change the list?
Of course. The ready-made list is just a starting point: delete, add, move items between categories.
Do I need an account?
No. A room code is all it takes — no email, password or signup.
How long is the list kept?
As long as you use it. A list is only deleted after a month without any activity; even opening the room resets the clock.
Can I install it on my phone?
Yes. With the room open, tap "Save Room" to add it to your home screen and open it with one tap.
