As full time workers, my wife and I have never exceeded 3 weeks on a vacation. With FIRE growing near, we can finally plan trips measured in months, rather than weeks. We've bought our "retirement" RV already, and are gleefully poring over maps and planning journeys, but we've never "shut down" the house for that long.
I would love to hear recommendations from those who routinely leave their house for months at a time. Have you made any plumbing or wiring modifications for this? What do you do with fridge/freezer? Stop your mail? Or is there some type of service that can forward it? I assume you (like us) get neighbors to remove flyers and stuff to avoid signaling thieves. We have a trusted lawn service (who has keys to the gates).
Any recommendations or tips would be welcomed.
Thanks in advance. I'm counting down the days, and want to be ready!
