Has anyone else spent the past month unloading and reloading your rig? My wife and I plan on hitting the Mojave once this crap is over and really trying to not “overpack” but want to be the most prepared!

It's definitely the time to reorg, mod, and plan while we're in shelter-in-place.
i've been unloading stuff and using it...
found a big pump bottle of Purell and some TP in one tote...that was nice
the wife ran out of aspirin, so back out to the camper. our camp trailer has been a convenience store on wheels during this quarantine mess

I put a new RTT on right before this all started. It doesn't fit and had to re organize my entire roof. Tomorrow I'll be in the garage figuring out a new configuration for the bed of the truck and what goes where. I've got everything but I don't feel like it's as accessible as it could be.

Re organized everything today. I really wish I had opening side windows on the cap.
Fridge, toilet, sand spike, waterport, and an extra gallons.
Went through and re stocked all of my electrical stuff. Connectors, tape, etc, fuses, etc.
Brought more frequently used stuff inside for easier access. Adventure tool co. tool rool, Inde Flate system, and all of my air stuff. (Deflators, hose, gauges, etc.)
Ready for Spring. The only thing not pictured is all of the fishing stuff I bring along.

We finally got a frig before all this and itching to use it too. We will be back out there soon!

Yep -Jeep, Ram, trailer, shop, garage, yard. I found stuff that I either needed or was so buried that I obviously don't need to pack it around.

Haha yeah. I walked around my garage yesterday and just kept adding crap to my amazon list and ordered it. I had to restock some electrical crap, fishing line, etc and figured if I order it now hopefully I'll have it by the time this crap goes away. I would just go to Home Depot but my wife flips every time I try and go somewhere.

Everytime I get ready to start clearing out stuff or doing maintenance, it rains.
Once everything gets back to normal I won't be ready.

Spent part of yesterday relocating and organizing gear from my van and trailer, and totes from around the homestead, to a spot in the cellar to make more room in my shop. Built a new rack designed for the specific sizes I use most.
Cleared an 8' wall space.

Loaded it up with my adventure containers (top shelf) and other totes from around the homestead.
Felt good to get this done finally, sorted and organized, and make more space in my shop.
Stay safe, stay clean, stay healthy!

Well, I guess before you can RE-organize, you have to be organized in the first place. That certainly leaves me out!

Heh - it's not a competition.
As indicated, it's only the top shelf that holds my adventure gear. All the black Sterilite totes are household stuff, except the big one with no lid on the floor at this end.
I have a mess of stuff in storage, too, and the trailer is still full as well. I tend to stay out for several months at a time, so haul more than many might for different environments and situations, as well as a mess of camera gear.

yeah, organizing gear and having a place for it was also a quarantine to-do item for me, as well. can't have a basement down here in the swamps, so im using a shipping container and staying above ground. not quite finished and the wife is already trying to sneak some of her arts and craft stuff in there...marriage might be 50/50, but NOT when it comes to storage space!
