Winter Motorhome Essentials: Protect Your Van from Damage

It’s that time of year again. The days are shorter, the weather’s wetter, and if your motorhome is heading into winter storage—or you’re planning to travel in your motorhome during winter—you’ll want to make sure you’re fully prepared. In this episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt and Keith share their top winter motorhome essentials, covering everything from damp prevention and rodent control to security gear and safety kit you shouldn’t leave home without.

We explore the full motorhome winter checklist, including battery care, covers, gas and water tips, and how to keep your waste tank from freezing. Matt even revisits a controversial opinion on one of the hottest debated items in winter storage, and admits he’s changed his tune.

Plus, we talk all things NEC National Motorhome and Caravan Show 2025, where to find us, how to claim your free orange podcast bag, and how to get a discount on your show tickets.

In the Q&A, Matt tackles Malibu vs Adria motorhomes and whether a campervan sat nav shows more accurate speed than your dashboard.

If you’ve ever wondered what to put in your motorhome for winter, how to stop mould in cupboards, or what chocolate can tell you about mice, this one’s for you.
