CAMPING WITH KIDS OR TEENAGERS? PACK ONE SMALL CLEANUP BOX
Camping with a family creates more mess than you expect—snack wrappers, spills, dirty dishes, wet paper towels and food scraps.
Instead of searching through the vehicle every time something needs cleaning, pack one sturdy plastic box with a tight-fitting lid and keep all your cleanup supplies together.
WHAT TO PUT INSIDE:
🧤 Protective gloves
For handling garbage, greasy cookware and messy equipment. Pack sizes that fit the adults and teenagers who will be helping.
🧽 Microfibre cloths
Reusable, compact and excellent for wiping tables, coolers, camp stoves and condensation inside an RV or tent. Different colours can be assigned to dishes, general cleaning and dirty equipment.
🧴 A small, properly labelled spray bottle
Choose a ready-to-use cleaner suitable for the surfaces you will be cleaning. Follow the product directions and never mix different cleaners. Keep cleaning products away from younger children.
🧻 Paper towels
Useful for grease, food spills and messes that you would not want to put on a reusable cloth.
Heavy-duty garbage bags
For regular garbage, wet waste and messy items. Strong bags are less likely to tear or leak inside your vehicle.
Clear bags
For bottles, cans and other recyclables. Check the campground’s recycling rules before sorting.
Small food-waste bags
For leftovers, fruit peels, crumbs and other food scraps. Use designated organics bins only if the campground provides them and accepts your type of bag. Otherwise, follow the campground’s garbage instructions.
Important: none of these bags is bear-proof. Food scraps, recycling and garbage must never be left beside the tent, under the picnic table or outside overnight.
Never dump dishwater on the ground or into a lake, and never burn or bury food scraps or garbage.
