However, modern technology has blessed us with vacuum cleaners!

Best RV Vacuums
1. Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Editor’s Choice
We’ve had this dyson stick vacuum for a few years now, and it’s been great for tiny spaces, like our RV. I love that there are color options (ours is pink!), and it’s lightweight. The dust cannister is easy to empty and the charge holds for an hour at least. It’s quite long (just over 4 ft long) and narrow, so it’s easy to store vertically in our utility closet.
This vacuum works well on all floor types and is designed for homes with pets. It comes with several attachments too that help you reach the hard-to-reach spaces. Charging is simple, just place the vacuum on the charging station.

2. LG A9 CordZero Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Best RV Vacuum
LG is a brand known for quality and longevity, and they’ve created a quality stick vacuum that is both compact though on the high-end of the price spectrum. Big perks are the flexible storage and charging options: you can wall mount the vacuum, charge it on it’s floor stand, or dismantle the pole from the charge block (handle) and slip that onto the base. This makes it my top pick of the best RV vacuums.
There are four color choices to choose from. All the filters and interior parts of washable by hand, and you can add an additional filter if you’re worried about allergies and bacteria.

3. Miele Complete C2 Vacuum Cleaner
Heavy duty vacuum
This vacuum is more bulky and heavy than the stick vacuums, and it takes up more space; however, the trade-off is that it can hold more dust with a larger dust bag and filter. Furthermore, you don’t need to stress about if the battery is charged, since you plug it into an electrical outlet. However, this may not be the best solution to someone living off-grid since it may draw more power than the battery-powered alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you use a vacuum in an RV?
Yes, you can use a vacuum in an RV! The biggest choice you’ll need to make is if you want to use a battery-powered or plug-in vacuum. The battery-powered vacuums are often more compact but the battery life limits you to 60 minutes of cleaning at a time. Whereas, the plug-in vacuums offer more dust storage for a deep clean with no time restrictions.
What is the best thing to clean an RV floors with?
When I live in my RV, I sweep daily because dirt and dust always seem to make their way in; however, sweeping does kick up the dust. Using a vacuum cleaner allows me to suck up particles at the source and it can be a fair bit faster than sweeping. I’ll mop the floors, if needed.
How do I clean the dust out of my RV?
Personally, I find the best tool to clean the dust out of an RV efficiently is by using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping kicks up the dust, but a vacuum can get that stuff at the source. Additionally, it can really do more with suction to remove hair and crumbs stuck in hard-to-reach places like couch cushions and corners.

As a family of five, I always found it a struggle, even in a small space, to keep the dust at bay. We always took our shoes off at the door and spent a few times during the day washing the bottom of our feet, yet they were always black again from the interior floors!
