TRAVEL ECO-FRIENDLY IN YOUR MOTORHOME

Here are some top tips on Eco-friendly travel in your Motorhome.  Travelling can make a huge impact on your carbon footprint and the planet.  Making small changes will change that footprint over time.

Plan Ahead

Plan ahead of your journey, will your motorhome fit down some of the roads on the route? Plan stops in advance to help reduce fatigue.  Don’t forget to take your license and vehicle documents and make sure you take out motorhome insurance.

Efficient Driving Techniques

Learn a few fuel-efficient driving techniques so you don’t burn through the fuel so quickly.  Maintaining optimal tyre pressure and reducing engine idling can save fuel consumption and emissions.

Renewable Energy Techniques

Add Solar Panels and other renewable energy solutions suitable for your motorhome, running power from these sources will save money on electrical costs.

Water Reduction

Install a flow restriction on your taps and shower, these devices can help save you water by reducing the amount that flows through your taps and showers.  They are easy to install and make a big difference in water consumption.

Water Conservation

Fix any leaks promptly to prevent water wastage.  Use biodegradable soaps and detergents to ensure the grey water from your motorhome is as eco-friendly as possible.

Environment Conscious

Consider the campsite you will stay at, does the location have eco-friendly practices and renewable energy sources?

Respect the environment around you and the wildlife, pick your rubbish up behind you, empty water in the authorised dumping areas, pick up food scraps, try to erase all traces of your footprint, and always adhere to the ‘leave no trace’ practice.
