I really like the floorplan of the 2022 Greyhawk 27U, but where do you put your trash can? There are drawers under the sink and really no other good place to put it, that I can see. Would love to hear where others are putting their trash cans.

Place the trashcan at the end of the counter under the extension.

Thanks Ken. You're right, that's about the only place. We have a dog, so not ideal, but fortunately with a lid I think that will keep her out.

I put ours behind the passenger seat. Leaned the seat back far forward since it's not being used when we're parked. That made a nice little nook for a tall, rectangular pedal-lift lid plastic can, just forward of the entry steps. When we're moving, I put it on the bottom step inside the door. Very stable. The hardest part was finding just the right size trash can for the space. We do not have swivel captain's chairs

CW5AVRet, great idea. Thanks for sharing...also, thanks for your service!!

Thanks for your support & welcome to the forum! Another great forum is https://www.jaycoowners.com/forums/, specifically for Jayco folks. Both run by RV Life & there is some content crossover. Both have a lot of RVers who are a lot smarter & more experienced than I am. No dumb questions on either one, but sometimes you'll get referred to another thread where your question was already asked & answered many times before. Also it really helps to be as specific as possible, as you were in your question. Tossing out, "My RV broke. What should I do?" will just draw friendly fire.

You figured out my nickname so I'll take a guess & thank you for your service as well!

27U is not the same floorplan as my 25R, but comparing the layouts online you might be able to put a trash can where we put ours. We are able to fit a tall skinny can with a lid between the front slide wall and end of the cab area, kind of behind the drivers seat. Store it in there for travel, pull it out to extend the slide, and then put it back where it was, out of the way.

Thanks again CW5AVRet and to JaytheDJ.

Great idea from JaytheDJ. We use that space for a small 4-drawer unit from Home Goods. I'm sure JaytheDJ would also just caution, be extra vigilant whenever putting stuff behind the slide "lip". Be sure always to eyeball both sides, top & bottom before extending & retracting the slide. I'll just tell you how I know. Early on, I was extending the main room slide when I heard an unmistakable crunching wood sound. I had overlooked a small folding stool tucked behind the wall and the very powerful slide mechanism was crushing it and tearing off the front of the wall. I stopped before there was much damage but lesson learned the hard way!
