One tip I will provide, clothes that are one or two wearings away from the trash, load them in the coach. I consider these disposable and when travelling after the clothes are worn they are thrown away rather than laundered. These include, but are not limited to, dress shirts that are no longer "suit and tie quality" due to age, old jeans, underwear and socks.
We do occasionally go out to the coach and reevaluate what is packed away due to the changing of the seasons or if we are going to travel through multiple climate zones, for example from Central Virginia to Florida in January or from the flatlands to the mountains in late October or November.
Our primary goal is to have fun and not have the RV become a chore or a PITA to load and unload with every trip thereby minimizing the fun.

Great suggestions! I'm working toward a "fully stocked" coach, yet without overdoing it...easy for me to do!
Years ago we had a travel trailer, and kept some old expendable pieces of clothing in the trailer for one of those "just in case" times. Never really used them but it was good to know we had them.
Our free time has been a bit choppy lately so we have yet to be able to just drop things and take off. We hope to do that in a few weeks' time.
Thanks again for the good ideas, and happy travels!
