Storing zero gravity chairs
I was wondering how others travel with their chairs? I currently just find a spot in the back of the truck usually on top of other stuff. I know silly question but as I look at 3 ft of snow in the yard it's getting hard to imagine my first trip is May 1st.

I have a 5th wheel so both XL Faulkners Zero Gravity chairs go inside basement compartment
When we had a bumper pull.....camp chairs went inside either in isle way or laying on bed.
When we had a camper shell.....stuffed where ever we could find a spot.
Either way........didn't matter
As long as strapped/secured.
Besides they were one of the first items out/set up

bed of the truck if it's not raining. If it is I lay them on our bed at the front of the trailer.

Mine took up too much room in the storage bay, so I quit using mine.

Our chairs go in the front storage. Our storage is quite high so I built a platform so I could put the chairs under neither and stack storage containers on top.

I put mine beside the bed with a towel between them and the wall, they are the first thing out usually. Its still a pain and takes two trips unless I want to bang into everything.

We have a ladder rack on our motorhome. They get stored there when traveling.

In the truck bed under the tonneau cover. Like yourself I too am waiting for the snowbanks to disappear. In the past couple of weeks they've gone from 5 feet to 4 so there's still hope.

Both of our zero gravity chairs fit nicely under the bed. Sometimes we don't even get them out. We use the bag chairs instead. Depend on the weather and our mood.

Got a bike rack at Camping World that hangs on the rear ladder. I hang the chairs on the rack and strap them to the ladder. Haven't lost one yet.

We got lucky and they just barely fit in the exterior storage on the slide for the bed.

We made a bag to hold them and stash them beside the bed with the folding table on the wall as well to prevent scaring of the wall.

Yeah, I always preferred the collapsible tube style chairs because that's the shape of most of the storage compartments (the smaller trailers, anyway). The 0g chairs are certainly comfortable, but they just don't fit in a lot of places. So you end up throwing them in the pickup truck, or storing them on the bed inside or something. The bigger RVs I'm sure have more storage (all you need is a wider door).
I see people bungee chairs to the rear ladder, but I hate keeping them in the elements like that.
