Getting creative about how to pack it all in is part of the fun of a TC. Add shelves to the cabinets, a shoe holder pocket thingy in the closet (for small items), plastic bins for organization, etc. To make use of unused space I even replaced the decorative panel over the entry door with some plywood onto which I attached a paper towel holder, spice rack, hat/glove bin, & book/magazine rack. On the outside I use a hitch haul under the rear overhang of the camper that can carry my wood leveling blocks, a bin with my sewer hose & fittings, and a bin of firewood. (I only carry kiln-dried lumber fragments that can be gathered from just about any construction site, after asking for permission of course.) I've also added a small 2' wide deck across the back of my TC on which I could fasten extra gear if needed ... but haven't needed it yet. Two of my main objectives are to minimize how much stuff I need to put away before I can hit the road and to keep stuff out of my way so I can use the TC facilities enroute without moving or climbing over things.
