How to Prepare Your Motorhome After Winter Storage

How do you prepare a motorhome after winter storage? In this episode, Matt and Keith share a practical motorhome spring checklist to help you travel safely and avoid breakdowns as you head on your way.

It’s very easy to assume you can just turn the key and go. But after a few cold, wet months sitting still, your motorhome needs a careful once-over. Tyres age, seals stick, pipes crack, and water systems quietly grow things you might prefer not to drink.

Matt talks you through the checks that really matter, the ones that cost very little time now but can save you a cancelled trip, a recovery callout, or a four-figure repair bill later.

And in the Q&A, Matt answers your questions on:

Air suspension pricing, why quotes can vary so much, and what to look for before booking
Travelling to Germany, whether UK motorhomes need the G607 gas certificate, and what’s actually required
Gas-free motorhomes, lithium batteries, diesel heating, and whether moving away from gas is a sensible long-term choice

If your first trip of the year is already in the diary, give this a listen before you set off. A couple of sensible checks now can make the difference between a relaxed getaway and a very long weekend on the hard shoulder.
