Our van is also stored some miles from home and not possible to bring home. From February each year to End of September, the van is kept in a state of readiness, everthing loaded apart from clothes, and clean bedding. Typically day before any adventure we pack the van with clothes etc, and prepare the bedding etc.
For coming home clothes packed into bags, and placed into the car, this eases re storing the van after an adventure.
For wintering all cloths and bedding removed and sodt furnishings stood up to allow for air to circulate. Water taps kept open, along with water drains.
Toilet flush water emptied, small amounbt of toilet blue put into cassette, and foul water container. Curatin drwan but not blinds. Hitch covered, and tyres inflated 5 pis past normal running.
Never had an issue with tis set up, and all good yr to yr.

All this just reminds me of how lucky we are to be able to store caravan plus car at the side of the house with plenty of room to walk around and to plug van into garage.
My son keeps his TA in storage but can park it outside his house for a couple of days before use.
I have nothing but admiration for the intrepid folks who can't bring their vans home but soldier on regardless
well done!
