When we first started, wife had to have the nice plastic plates, glasses, three or four different size bowls and cook pots. It didn't take a lot of dish washing to start to like paper plates, two sizes of cooking pots, and for bowls, we started using Ziplock storage bowls. Buying four each in different sizes covered our eating and storage problems. After several trips, we unloaded about half of what was packed in the trailer and didn't miss any of it............
Same here. That was 40+ years ago. Still every now and then we end up having a clear out because stuff just "replicates" in the old space shuttle.
Another thing we've learned to do is to plan our meals better and to stop carrying so many recipe books (admittedly recipe books is MY weakness.)
Example: if we're going to the coast we take along our favorite seafood recipes instead of an entire cookbook. Herself keeps the recipes in a pocket folder. Light weight, easy to stow. We then only pack those dry ingredients for those recipes and pick up the seafood at the coast.
The next trip we may be headed to beef country so we take along our favorite red meat recipes.
