Homemade RV Sewer Hose Carrier
Storing bulky 3-inch sewer hoses inside bumper tubes or basement storage bays is awkward and unhygienic. Building an under-frame sewer hose carrier from a square PVC vinyl fence post provides a clean, weather-proof container that accommodates hoses complete with 4-in-1 elbow fittings attached.
Materials & Build Procedure
- Purchase a 5-inch x 5-inch vinyl fence post sleeve (cut to match your frame width, usually 64 to 72 inches).
- Secure two square vinyl fence post caps for tube ends.
- Attach a heavy-duty magnetic cabinet door catch or stainless pin latch to hold the end caps securely closed during transit.
- Mount the square tube underneath your trailer frame crossmembers using perforated metal strapping and UV-resistant heavy-duty nylon cable ties or self-tapping metal screws.
- Drill several 1/4-inch drainage holes along the bottom surface to allow moisture and condensation to drain freely.
