Welcome Kathy!

TM's have limited storage compared to up-right models and the 2619 is one of if not the most limited of the TM models.


There is storage under the curb-side dinette seat. Depending on the size of the fresh water tank, you may or may not have any space under the street side dinette. We have the 40 gallon tank and for all partical purposes it uses the whole street side storage area.

There is very limited storage in the over-head cabinet on the forward shell above the bed. The only thing we put there is the privacy curtains.

In addition to the fold-up wardrobe cabinet, there are three large drawers and 3 under-counter cabinets on the curb side.

There is a cabinet under the kitchen sink, but much of that is occupied by the water heater.

The bathroom has a couple of small under-counter cabinets (enough for TP, toilet chemicals, basic bathroom stuff).

There are also two optional hanging cabinets you can put up after the TM is setup. We opted for the over-sink cabinet and that has helped get a lot of stuff off the counter when setup.

The 2720 has the larger rear bed and does have a storage compartment that is accessible from the inside and outside.

When we pack, a lot of stuff goes on the floor of the TM. Once at the campground, things get put away in the wardrobe cabinet, over-sink cabinet and on the beds/counter tops. Other things like folding chairs, portable BBQ, etc goes in the back of the tow vehicle.

A lot of people have come up with extra shelves, storage organizers and over-door hanging solutions to add more off-counter storage.

It does have limits, but we and most others have found work-arounds.

Generally the more stuff you bring, the more weight you are pulling - so the limited storage does help keep the over-all weight in check because it forces you to prioritze what you'll bring and what you'll leave behind.
