Winterization Near Me?

Is anyone going to winterize their trailer soon, and does reside in the northern Virginia area. I want to do it myself, but I would like somebody to see if I am doing the process right. I have read all the winterization threads, but I will feel better if somebody with experience can make sure that I did the process the first time right. Thanks.

I live in Richmond and won't be winterizing until mid dec. Depending upon the cold, I may do it later, as we plan on camping year round. I might just put in a couple of ceramic heaters and let em run to keep the trailer toasty as well.

It's that time of year for me. I'll be doing it within the next two weeks. Freezing temps have already arrived a couple mornings. I have a few things to figure out myself this year...as I have different systems in the PARK MODEL.

Good luck. It's really not hard...just get it right.

Talking

No I believe that California is on the top of that list....
or close anyways....

if we are in the lead for global warming it sure isnt warm here.....

I guess thats what we get for moving to a mountain area that the lowest elevation in the area is 4750' and our place is at 5200'

but the lot with a panaramic view of the mountains and the lake is priceless...

To us its paradise,
considering that we both grew up in a farming community, in eastern oregon. Now we live in the Mountains, full timing right now......till the house is built. but we can go fishin out our back door, go ride ATV's for hundreds of miles, go hunting (during season of course), without traveling for hours. ect ect...
Now how many kids can go back to school and tell their friends that they got to go camping the entire summer??? Our kids are loving it....
