Many people who start fulltiming are not sure if they're going to like it so they rent a storage unit for their most prized possessions. Some discover that those possessions are not very prized after a few years. :-D Everything else can be sold at garage sales, on Craig's List and given away to relatives and charities.
As far as stocking the trailer - take all of your favorite pots, pans, cooking utensils, etc. Pack enough clothing so that you don't have to go to the laundromat every week plus an assortment so that you're prepared for any weather. Scan photographs, put favorite CDs on an Ipod, get a Kindle and investigate hobbies that don't take up a lot of space.
Don't go crazy buying RV specific stuff. Take a few multiple week trips if possible before you actually start fulltiming. You'll get a better idea of what you really need.
