Newbie help needed.
When I bought my TT. Everything was just jumbled in a mess under the outer cover. I have now cleaned it all up and am trying to pack it in properly, but feel sure I'm missing a trick. The bottom part of the kitchen, with the shelves and legs, and the portaloo take up all the space between the benches. The Awning takes up a complete bench locker and the day tent takes up the other one. Where am I supposed to put the poles, chairs, table and any clothes etc? Or does that all still go in the car? BTW I don't have a front box yet. Also, does it matter the loo is taller than the lockers?
Thanks

We also have a Marathon. In our side lockers we have the roof lining and curtains, 4 chairs in bags, loo rolls , etc - in the main part we put the poles and canvas and Eco matting. 0nce the trailer is folded we put a couple of tables under the top cover. We have the roof bars on top and have a  roof bx fitted that holds all the bedding and towels and rotary drier. In the front box is the loo, the Cadac, pegs, mallet, etc,etc - only clothes and 2 very large dogs in car

Thank you. I shall drag it all out and start again. Did wonder whether to put the dogs in the trailer and the rest of the stuff in the car - but decided against it.
