Winterizing Bench cushions and bed mattress

[Dash]

We just purchased our gently used Escape RV trailer and need to store it for the Winter. Should we remove the bench cushions and the mattress for storing? Thanks!

I do not think so, put some damp rid in a cup in the sink and close it up, maybe crack the vent a tiny bit. Winterize it off course.

I just up-end the cushions so air can get underneath. I have a mesh sheet underneath the mattress and it all seems to work fine. And I leave the vents open a bit for air circulation and the 5.0 itself is covered and winterized.
