We use paper plates ALWAYS; a handy tip is go to a "dollar store" and buy an arm load of different size plastic baskets. They are great for storage and organization in the cabinets. Don't use a trash can larger than a 5 gallon bucket; smaller bags are cheaper and because you fill it "often" you will get into the habit of taking it out the door when you leave. Make sure that you have a GOOD manual can opener for backup over your electric one. This may seem extreme, but when we bought our RV, we purchased an OEM replacement kitchen sink at the time. They are plastic, and one day while "on the road" if someone placed a hot pan, etc in the sink...you have a problem; it is stored under the bed in the front bedroom.
As you go on, you will learn and adapt...............
