Adding Storage In Bathroom For Rpod 178

Mainly I have seen that people have done mods to the bathroom for storage but I am not sure what I can buy or if I have to build something. Prefer to buy if possible primarily due to time limitations. 

Basically we never use the bathroom in our 178 and it's used for storage. Right now we just have a plastic bin or two in there but is not user friendly for putting stuff away or taking it out. Looking for some sort of shelf system that could at minimum be used while docked yet at best (and most ideal) used while in flight so I don't need to take things in and out all the time. 

Any ideas of what to do here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 

We use our bathroom, so storage is limited, but it is enough for us.

I am not sure that you are thinking practically here. Since you know 'minimalist' camping, you really shouldn't have that much stuff even now. Keep the quite small bathroom as-is, use the tow vehicle more for storage and consider a 'stand alone' camping storage unit like this gold-plated one.

Sooner or later, there will definitely be times when you and your family will want/need access to the bathroom.

Originally posted by NWRPodder I have spent many years sleeping in tents and backpacking that to sleep in a nice trailer without using the bathroom is completely logical to our family. It's one less thing to clean as well. If I had my choice I would get a model just like the 178 where the bathroom area was all storage but that did not exist.

We tent camped for many years too.  An RPod is a step up in a lot of ways but for me, the A#1 best thing about the Pod is having any-time access to my very own hot shower.  Push come to shove, I might be able to last longer, but after 3 days of camping without a shower I will drive miles for a rent-a-shower and have been known to, really, jump into icy rivers to rinse off. 

A whole lot depends on the kind of camping you like to do.  We will always opt for a National Park if possible, and many of them (and our favorite, the Great Smokey Mountains) don't have shower facilities.  If you go to private campgrounds with full hookups AND bathhouses with unlimited hot showers, you don't need the Pod bathroom.  I'll use campground shower facilities if they're available (and not horrible), but the wife and I both use the onboard toilet.  I'll admit, there can be a bit of a yuck hurdle knowing you have to dump the black tank, and for some people there is an intimacy hurdle too.  It's close quarters in a Pod!  Once you've done it a time or two both of those hurdles pretty much vanish.  And I highly recommend getting over them.  Life is great in a Pod with a toilet and a hot shower!!

We are contemplating a small storage area in the wall behind the toilet along the lines of what marwayne built.  But since I can't convince him to drop on down to Dayton for a spell and help me with it, it'll be a little more simple.
