One thing I've started doing before every camping trip
I started keeping a simple checklist on my phone before every trip after forgetting a few things one too many times.
It's mostly just the basics. Charge the batteries, pre cool the fridge, fill up the water jug, grab the camp chairs, and make sure I actually packed the coffee.
It only takes a couple of minutes, but it's saved me from getting an hour down the road and suddenly wondering if I left something sitting in the garage.
I still forget little things now and then, but definitely a lot less than I used to.
