You’ve been looking at buying an RV for a while now. You’ve settled on a travel trailer<\/a>, but that’s still a big category to choose from. Like every home, every trailer is unique. Understanding different travel trailer sizes and types is going to narrow down your search even further, so you can find the perfect fit for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Takeaway<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n
Travel trailers vary in size from 8 feet to over 40 feet<\/strong>, with average lengths<\/a> between 20 to 28 feet<\/strong>. The size dictates the living space, amenities, and the type of vehicle required for towing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nHow to Choose the Right Travel Trailer Size for You<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Selecting the ideal travel trailer size isn’t a universal choice. You have to assess your own needs and wants based on…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
What Are You Going to Use It For?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf you plan on traveling to remote places down dirt roads and around windy mountain roads, then you’ll want something maneuverable<\/em>. If you’re traveling to campgrounds, then you want to *consider any <\/em>**length restrictions <\/em>that RV parks have<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n*
\n
What Style Do You Prefer?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nChoosing the right travel trailer size isn’t just about length and width. You need to consider what style of camping you prefer. <\/strong>Do you like to cook your meals indoors<\/a> or outdoors? Do you prefer to spend all your time outside and use your camper solely for sleeping? Are you planning on living in your RV full-time?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
How Many People Does It Need to Accommodate?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Are you bringing your family, your hunting buddies, ski mates? It’s more than just who you’re bringing, but what accommodations do they need? Do they require privacy and separate rooms or is everyone good with sleeping in the same space? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Are You Hauling Smaller Recreational Vehicles With Your Camper?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nDo you like to bring dirt bikes, four-wheelers, paddleboards, kayaks? Those toys<\/em><\/a> count against your GVWR, <\/em>so keep them in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
What Terrain Do You Plan to Travel?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Make sure the trailer you choose can stand up to the trails you take it on. You can take trailers off-road, <\/em>but you need a camper that can absorb the bumps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
What’s Your Vehicle’s Towing Capacity?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nYour current vehicle’s tow capacity is how much weight you can safely tow<\/em>. So if you have a Gross Combined Vehicle Weight Rating (GCVWR<\/a>) of 10,000 lbs and your vehicle weighs 2,000 lbs, then you can tow a trailer weighing up to 8,000lbs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
How Do You Plan to Store Your Trailer?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nDo you have enough space on your property? Or do you need to find storage? If you need more storage space than you have, then you can look at renting a storage place with something like Neighbor<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Neighbor is a peer-to-peer storage marketplace where you can find safe, affordable RV storage close to home. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
How Much Are You Looking To Spend on Your Travel Trailer?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
It’s easy to go looking and forget that your budget is limited. So decide on a good price range<\/em> for you to narrow down the selection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To help you think through these questions, let’s look at different types and sizes of travel trailers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Are the Different Travel Trailer Sizes?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Travel trailers range between 10-40 ft. Average RV lengths are between 20 to 28 feet. That means there’s a perfect fit for you, so let’s find it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
