Best Travel Trailer Accessories Explained

We’ve had this conversation many times. “How about we hit the road? Okay, how much time do you need to load and be out of here?” We have done this in under 20 minutes! That’s motivation! 

Can’t Wait to Get Out There!

Honestly, on a spectrum from extreme minimalist to indifferent to the weight your travel trailer hauls, we lean toward the minimalist. Travel trailer accessories we haul and store must be proven to provide an advantage removing any drawbacks we’ve come across over the many enjoyable years we have camped in a travel trailer. 

Here are a few travel trailer accessories we would never leave home without.

HitchGrip Carrying Tool 

Hitching and unhitching is quick and easy now that we transfer our weight distribution hitch using the HitchGrip Carrying Tool. Carrying a heavy, greasy hitch head is so effortless with this perfectly balanced handle. 


HITCHPORT® Hitch Storage Kit (available in two sizes) (U.S. Patent #10,899,403)

One of the best improvements we’ve made to our campsite tear down and setup process is to transfer the trailer hitch ball to our HITCHPORT® Hitch Storage Mount which comes in two sizes, (H-701) for 2 inch hitches and (H-703) for 2 1/2 and 3 inch hitches. With our weight distribution hitch stored at a convenient height and tucked away, we no longer have to lift heavy, greasy components from our storage compartment. Everything we need to hitch up and go is secured to the trailer tongue saving us precious space and time.

HITCHPORT HITCH BAR STORAGE KIT

HITCHPORT® Spring Bar Storage Kit (U.S. Patent #10,899,403)

In under a minute, we have our weight distribution equipment stored and secured. Spring Bars slide into HITCHPORT Spring Bar Mounts and are locked in place with a python cable lock right on the trailer tongue.  

WEIGHT DISTRIBUTING HITCH BAR COVER

Expensive equipment is protected with our heavy-duty vinyl cover. It protects our weight distributing hitch bar from the elements when not in use.

TOP MOUNT BATTERY DISCONNECT SWITCH – Wirthco

Our battery disconnect knob is a simple solution to saving our battery’s health. It quickly stops battery drain when our trailer is in storage. If we need access to our travel trailer while in storage with a twist of the knob, we have power. So easy and convenient.

TRAILER CONNECTOR STORAGE KIT

This simple tool keeps our plug off the ground and under cover protecting it from dirt, dust, weather, and UV damage. So simple to install and use.
