No matter what you use your van for, you’re in it to take adventures or travel on the road for days, if not weeks or months at a time. We all know that showering is one of the daily essentials that people think must be hard to live without in #vanlife. Opting for a full shower in your rig does make it easier, but we’ve got good news – it’s not the only way to ensure you get your daily shower! We’ve put together a list of some of our tried-and-true favorite options for showering in van life. All of these are affordable, convenient, and easy options for showering in and outside your van, no matter where you are.
1. THE ROADSHOWER
The RoadShower is a patented pressurized solar shower by Yakima that you can take with you on the go. The long, black tube mounts to the top of most roof racks with lock loops and included mounting hardware. Open the tank cap to fill it with water, pressurize manually with a hand pump or an electric pump, and use one of the garden hoses to shower off the side of your van. For added convenience, you can purchase their Shower Head Attachment for a more traditional shower experience.
The RoadShower comes in three sizes: 4, 7, and 10-gallon tanks, so you can enjoy showers of varying lengths based on your needs.

2. TOURIG BUNKER BASIN
The TOURIG Bunker Basin is a compact, stowable shower solution that can be used indoors or outdoors. The shower can be mounted to the ceiling inside your van or hung from a tree or another outdoor structure. Pair it with your van's shower nozzle or other portable options.
The shower curtain adds privacy to outdoor showers and is made of quick-dry fabric that stows away easily when not in use.

3. NEMO HELIO SHOWER
Nemo’s pressurized shower has a 2.9-gallon reserve tank with a hose and a foot pump. Unlike other showers that need to be hung overhead, this one sits on the ground and provides 5–7 minutes of hot, pressurized water with just a few manual foot pumps.
The tank can also be refilled anywhere without requiring a hose, adding to its convenience for remote locations.
