In the back of the truck. Thats why I spent $1000 on a cap for the truck so I could store things so they don't get wet. We bring them under the awning at night.

Are we talking about the folding bag chairs? If so we keep ours in one of the under compartments.


the OP are asking about storage for a hybrid trailer, which rarely have large storage compartments and very little outside storage. this isn't an issue with larger TTs and 5th wheels.

we lay our chairs on top of the dinette bed. we can fit 2 zero-grav chairs and 2 reclining chairs and the 4' ladder there.

Actually, we can fit 4 of the folding bag type chairs in the front passenger side compartment of our hybrid. It looks small, but it opens up into the front dinette bench.

Jayco 21J with a rear storage garage. I have yet to see a Hybrid with storage as good as the 21J or 26L. I believe the 26L is the same trailer with a storage area in the front for a 4 wheeler??

It will be very difficult to give up this storage when we move to a different TT. I don't know when that will be, but we all know that we will upgrade at some point in time.

Happy Camping

We have a 23B. My wife and kids have the bag typr camp chairs. I am a big ol' boy so I picked up a chair from Sam's club that kinda looks like a director's chair with shorter legs. It has a fold-a-way table on the side that I can fold up to hold the ol' Jack-n-diet pepsi. At any rate, I put it in the back of the TV, the bag chairs go on top of the dinette with the table down for travel. I don't tow like I am in the Daytona 500, so we have never had an issue with them rolling around. Now I am still working on something for hauling 4 bicycles though if anyone has any ideas.

The bag chairs either go in the tow vehicle or in the outside storage compartment.

Godsey, let me know what you come up with for hauling the bikes. I hate putting dirty bikes inside.

The five bag chairs go in the back of the truck. When we are parked at home, they go under the trailer. I started out with them in the large storage area in the back of our 26L, but found that there were other things I needed to get at first, and they ended up in the way. I'm still playing around with the organization. They may end up in the storage area again eventually.

Our original bag chairs went in the front storage compartment, but the new ones are too big to fit through the tiny door. We store them under the folded down dinette table; they don't move. The recliners go on top of the dinette with an old bedspread to pad the table so it doesn't get scratched.

The bikes go on top of the big SUV tow vehicle. There are yakima (and other) racks available for roof top transaport of 4 bikes.

Happy Camping!!
