How to prepare your motorhome for winter storage

Winter is knocking on our doors, so this week Motorhome Matt and Keith tackle the essential steps to prepare your motorhome or caravan for winter storage.

In the face of persistent wet and cold weather, properly preparing your leisure vehicle for winter is crucial to ensure it stays well-maintained and safe.

Covering everything from security tools to combatting damp to rodent infestations to whether you should store your motorhome on a driveway or a secure facility, this episode takes you through each stage of consideration.

Matt shares valuable advice on the benefits of using a cover - think birdlime, tree sap, and even sneaky thieves - as well as practical tips on choosing, fitting, and maintaining this protective essential.

In the Q&A, Matt answers your most asked questions about preparing leisure vehicles for winter, including caravan covers, batteries and alarms, plus some confusion of towing weight restrictions.
