Here's a way to tie everything down....

Here is a little info on a cheap product that works great for me.
Velcro type double sided hook and loop tape. Hooks on 1 side and loops on the other. best thing of all CHEAP!!

7 bucks for 35 FEET of 3/4 inch wide velcro tape. I use it for all sorts of stuff. The tape is tough enough to use on hoses, extension cords, anything you might want to bundle. I even use it to secure fuel cans in the bed of my truck. I always keep a roll in my trailer. the tape is tough enough to be screwed down, or as I do cut a small slit in one end and use a tie wrap to permanently attach a short piece to one end of my water hoses, and extension cords . That way I always have a piece to tie up my hoses on hand. Try it. this stuff is worth it. Reuse pieces of it over and over. It flat works..
Good luck, Great travels.

  • Thanks for the link. This is extremely useful, just like having a lot of clear plastic tubs.

    I use narrower versions of this in data centers and computer rooms as an alternative to Zip-Ties to secure bundles of wires, but still allow them to be repositioned. Very useful, and this price is right.
