[quote timestamp="1468541145" source="/post/23026/thread" author="@qccamper"]Hi all, after only two camping weekends, my girlfriend wants to change our recently bought QS10 for a travel trailer because of the lack of storage and organization. We have two kids, so we need space for extra clothes and food. Do you guys have ideas for better storage solutions or pictures of your setup? 

I like our QS and I don't want to change it!

Thanks a lot![/quote]I would look at the problem from the other side:  Perhaps you are bringing too much or perhaps those camping are disorganized.

Every trip we bring a small note pad and paper.  We write down what we miss from home and what we brought that we didn't use.  After every trip, the camper becomes less cluttered and even becomes lighter

Camp discipline can sometimes be difficult, especially with kids, but teaching them early will save plenty of headaches.  Every member of our family uses a small duffel for clothes and personal stuff.  If it doesn't fit into the bag, it doesn't come on the trip.  In each duffel is a plastic garbage bag.  Dirty (but dry clothes) are placed into the plastic bag and into the duffel as clean clothes come out.  Dishes and other things are cleaned and stowed before the next activity.  Outdoor gear (stove, lantern, chairs, games, etc) stay under the dining tent until we leave.

For those who might be interested in improving galley storage, I found this sterilite 4 drawer unit at Walmart: http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/sterilite-4-drawer-cart-white/6000083204738

Removing the bottom drawer does a perfect fit in the QS galley door:

That looks great. May I ask how you removed the bottom drawer? It's hard to tell from the photos of the item but it looks like the frame is all one piece of plastic.
