List of RV Paper Towel Holder Ideas to help you out
Are you tired of knocking the roll of paper towel off the counter when you reach for it?
You need a better solution.
So I’ve compiled some different camper paper towel holder ideas, and hopefully at least one will be right for your RV.
The term “RV” is so broad ranging from pop up campers and camper vans to massive Class A motorhomes. So your needs may be different than another RV owner.
Scroll through them all to find the holders that is right for your RV.
1) Camco Paper Towel Holder Pop-a-Towel
Of course I’m putting an RV paper towel holder by Camco first because they are the leader in RV and camping products.
This paper towel holder has two parts.
- A mounting bracket
- and a part that holds the actual paper towel roll.
The mounting bracket screws into a wall, cabinet door or underside of a cabinet, and then the paper towel holder slides into and off of the bracket for easy portability.
So you can take the paper towel outside for outdoor meals.
You can find this RV paper towel holder at many camping stores, or you can check it out on Amazon.
2) Simple, Portable countertop Paper Towel Holder for your RV
This is a simple, yet elegant-looking paper towel holder that you can plop onto your countertop and take with you for outdoor meals and picnics.
The downsides:
- it will take up some of your valuable counter-space in your RV
- it is a smooth rod holder so it may not allow you to rip off just one piece of paper if you’re trying one-handed
- it could slide around your counter on travel days (so tuck in a cabinet on those days)
The upsides:
- it is a vertical holder so it’ll stop the paper towel from unrolling onto the floor
- relatively inexpensive option
You can likely find a paper towel holder like this at your local stores, but if you want to see this product (by Spectrum Diversified) on Amazon you can click here.
(We actually use one like this to hold my daughter’s hair scrunchies!)
3) Easier to Tear Vertical Paper Towel Holder by OXO
Do you hate it when you go to rip off one piece of paper towel and you end up with 10?
This vertical paper towel holder from OXO allows you to tear off the paper towel using just one hand. It will take up space on your countertop, but the convenience of it may be worth it.
This OXO product is popular and well-rated.
But will it work for you?
4) Wall Mount or Under-Cabinet Mounted Paper Towel Holder
This paper towel holder by the company simplehuman can be mounted to the wall using 3 screws, or if you don’t want to screw into your camper’s walls, you can screw it to the underside of your wooden RV cabinets.
Sorry I don’t have a picture of it “in action” in an RV, but the picture below will give you a sense of its possibilities.
Plus it has a mechanism to stop the paper towel from un-rolling.
Do you have space for this in your camper?

5) Adhesive Undercabinet Paper Towel holder
As you know, a lot of campers don’t like to screw into their walls. This attractive stainless steel paper towel holder does NOT need to be screwed.
Instead, it uses an adhesive tape to stick it to the walls or to the underside of your RV kitchen cabinets.
This popular paper towel holder is made by SUNTECH and is available on Amazon.
6) Sleek Under Cabinet Paper Towel Holder for your RV
This paper towel holder by Prodyne mounts to the underside of your upper kitchen cabinets, or to the wall or inside a cabinet door (if you have wide enough RV kitchen cabinets).
The black knobs go inside the paper towel roll to squeeze it in place.
Check it out and see if it’ll become your “go to” paper towel holder for camping.
7) Two-piece Magnetic Paper Towel Holder
Here is a unique magnetic paper towel holder that sticks to magnetic surfaces.
It is actually two separate sections – you can see them in the picture below.
Many RV’s have their fridges covered in plastic paneling, but if you do have an RV fridge with a steel door, this magnetic paper towel holder will help keep your paper towels off your countertop.
This is a popular and really well-rated holder.

8) One-piece Magnetic Paper Towel Holder
Here is another paper towel holder that sticks to magnetic surfaces, but this one has just one single rod to stick through your roll of paper towel.
- You can mount it vertically or horizontally depending on your space and needs.
Because it is magnetic you could easily bring it outside to use at your outdoor kitchen, and pack it back inside when finished.
9) Over-the-Cabinet RV Paper Towel Holder
This style of paper towel holder hangs from a cabinet door.
So this means that it won’t take up space on your countertop and you won’t have to screw into your walls or use adhesives.
You’ll just have to make sure that it’ll fit over your cabinet door and that there is room inside the cabinet so you can close the door.
Or you can hang it facing outward too. Then it would be within easy reach of the sink or food prep area.
10) iDesign’s Over the Cabinet Door Paper Towel Holder
Here is a horizontally-mounted paper towel holder for your RV that hangs from cabinet doors.
It is another great option for campers that don’t want to screw into their walls or clutter up their countertop.
You can hang it inside the cabinet, or on the outside of the cabinet door.
Will this work in your camper?

11) Popular Paper Towel Holder for your RV
Sorry I don’t have a picture of this “in action” but this popular paper towel holder from Kamenstein can be mounted vertically or horizontally. So it gives you some options.
It features a ratcheting mechanism that prevents the roll from unspooling all over the floor.
This holder is really popular with thousands of customer-submitted ratings.
12) EZ-Roll Paper Towel Holder (versatile and great for camping)
The EZ-Roll paper towel holder is very versatile and with the bungee cord hooks it can be mounted in lots of different places. You can hang it from tables, strap it to a tree, a chair, to Command hooks in your kitchen and more…
It makes a great camping paper towel holder.
13) Bungee Cord – an easy paper towel holder for camping
Instead of buying a dedicated paper towel holder, you could try just using a bungee cord through a paper towel roll.
A lot of campers like to cook their meals outside their RVs and it is convenient to have a roll of paper towel close at hand. It’s a simple paper towel holder for your camping kitchen.
If you use a bungee cord that is too taut though it may bend your paper towels in half so keep this in mind.
14) Paper Towel Holder that looks like a Coca Cola vending machine
I thought I’d add this to list because it is pretty quirky.
If you love the vintage vibe of old co*ke bottles, or you like retro style, check out this unique paper towel holder from SUNBELTGIFTS.
It is well rated with lots of customer-submitted pictures on Amazon.
How do you keep paper towel from unrolling?
An easy way to stop paper towel from unrolling is to use a vertical paper towel holder, or to ensure your horizontal paper towel holders have a resistance-mechanism to ensure unraveling (this will allow for one-handed use too).
Thanks for checking out this article. I hope at least one of these options has helped you out.
