Secure Keurig in trailer

I wondered what others did to secure their full size Keurig in their trailer while driving.
Our regular coffee pot, we just emptied out, wrapped it in a towel and put it in the sink, EASY.
Since the Keurig keeps water in a separate tank, I wondered what others did so it didn't end up bouncing onto the floor.
Thanks

We set our full size Keurig in the sink while we are motoring. Works fine.

We leave the coffee pot and Igloo icemaker on the rear counter, but we also have shocks on the trailer and they never move in the tow from Concord, NC to Orlando, FL. If you're worried, use some museum putty on the bottom of your coffee maker, etc. and they'll stay put.

We leave the keurig on the counter on a piece of custom cut rubber shelf liner. It hasn't moved in three years, two different campers. I was worried at first, be even with some hard stops and rough roads, no problems. YMMV

We just leave it on the counter ready for use at next campsite. In 4500 miles on bumpy MI roads it has not moved.

Like someone else suggested, I got tired of packing everything away, over and over.

I bought museum putty. That stuff *works*.

(I wouldn't recommend the "clear gel" type. Use the white play dough type. The clear doesn't seem to hold as well.)

I use a stand alone paper towel holder in the kitchen, I never pack it away, and don't use the putty for it. It's never moved while in transit. It does have a rubber bottom on it though. I've left our coffee maker (Cuisinart) on the side bar...no putty...no rubber footing...and it didn't move.

Our Tassimo destroyed the sink in the 2703SS TT. Fortunately the dealer replaced it under warranty, was the plastic sink variety.

+1 as above...also do this with other stuff like remote controls, table placements, flowers...originally thought this would be a problem, but everything stays put...
