Just Whipperwhirl 24 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I bring a wet dry vac - and a carpet. I just cant take the dirt. Am I a crazy person? Yes - It is probably time we moved up to a pop up. I just was curios if anyone else brought a vac - or if I am - the only one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YodaGirl 13 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I vac the 10x12 rug that I bring as well as the inside of the tents. Dirt really bothers me.I thought that you meant that you vacuumed the site prior to setting up. LOLYes, I totally get where you're coming from. I can't stand dirt, and the crushed shells at the Fort are even worse! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought you were actually cleaning the entire site I hate when the rug is covered in dirt myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I found out the hard way on the last trip that, no matter how hard you try, there's NO WAY to keep the sand/shells off the rug under the easy up or from the inside of the tent. All I had was a small broom (think 6" handle) and tiny dust pan. I vacuumed the rugs when I got home.For tomorrow's trip I have a full sized broom packed to try and keep up with it. I'm on vacation, though... I just can't do a vacuum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Otter Spotter aka Debbie 58 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 We keep a blower in the MH. I blow the site off once or twice a day & vac the inside of the MH each morning. Now mind you at home, I wash floors when my feet stick to them, and vacuum the carpets when I can't find the cats! :dance: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GOBA Mom Lynn 18 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 We didn't vacuum our tent site for a couple of reasons.1. We never put out our rug. 2. It didn't rain. I would think that would make a difference.3. We didn't have any kids with us. Now THAT would make ALOT of difference. :flush2:We did take a piece of indoor/outdoor carpet to put down in front of the tent door, but like I said, never got it out of the car. Our tent had a porch type vestibule that had roof and sides but no floor, and I did put a chair there right outside the main door, and we took off our shoes before going inside the tent. That probably helped keep most of the dirt out. I did bring a whisk broom and dust pan, but never used it.Besides, I was on vacation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Memphis 105 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 No vacuum, but we do bring a full size broom to keep the pup and rug under the awning swept up. Throw the rug over the clothes line before we leave and give it a good beating but still have to vacuum out the storage compartment when we get home to get the crushed rock out. That stuff gets everywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brerroadrunner 8 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 swear each year we take home more and more of Florida in our camping rugs. I keep trying to get DH to take the leaf blower to keep the outside carpets somewhat clean. We too give the rugs a good beatin before loading, but you can't get it all out. :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Yeah, we rarely make our bed at home, but for some reason, every morning I make the camper bed and everything has to be in it's place!!(But then again every camping trip, I give 1/2 dozen tours) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
canadianfockerfiend Trevor 1 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 wow vacuum a campsite and my wife thought I have issues when i break out the rake. :parrot: Im just riding ya. I was going to sudjest one of those sand free carpets. We use one with out trailer. When it gets dirty we just pick it u[p and place it back down or sweep it so the sand goes into the little holes. That one posted is a nice color. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
