How should I get rid of a stale smell from a tent I’ve had packed away in the garage. I have it hanging now, but I’m not sure if that’ll do. I’ve considered putting it in the washing machine, followed by setting it up in the sun. Would that work

My little brother just bought his first car. The tent on the windows is kinda crappy, so he wants to remove it and get it redone professionally. Whats the easiest way to remove the tent without scratching up the windows?

People who love to be out of doors discover the usefulness of canopy tents sooner or later. These are overhead structures that stand on poles, offering a good amount of protection from rain, wind and sunshine. They could be portable or fixed, large or small, conical or round, colorful or monochromatic. The choice, as you can see, is amazing.

Some of the most popular uses of canopy tents include:

- Outdoor social and marketing events

- Camping

- Overhead shade and shelter

- Vehicle shelters

- Storage space

Using high quality canopy tents enable you to tackle several issues at once. You can instantly convert an open space into a closure with sufficient coverage and make the precincts really attractive, in just a few minutes. Since canopy tents are available in a wide variety of styles and sizes, you would have no problem buying a tent that answers your needs. Even so, it is recommended that you keep the following tips in mind before you make your purchase.

Most of us are not hard core engineers, though we are quite good with a basic tool kit. So, select a product that is easy to set up. Check whether the instructions are easy to follow.

You need a tent that is just big enough to give you complete protection. Canopy tents are available in a number of sizes starting from 5×5, 8×8, 10×10 and so on. Of course, very large tents of 30×40 are also available. Expect these to be expensive.

Always select tents that are made of sturdy material. The canopy material has to be tough enough to withstand the hot sun, rain and wind. Check whether the canopy tent comes with rust proof poles and bolts. This ensures longevity of use and gives you good value for your money.

Choose wisely. In case you live in a very cold place, you need to buy canopy tents with high roofs as these can easily accommodate heat lamps.

Many people like to take the easy way out and they buy pop up canopies. But, even though pop-ups are easy to install and may be carried easily, they are quite small. Besides, these tents are too flimsy for severe windy conditions.

Choose tents that have a really good measure of shade block. At the same time, the tent must also have sufficient light allowance too.

Canopy tents are a really good way of setting up a protected area. You can take these tents outside the home for an evening beneath the stars or you could take it with you while you go camping. You can hold a birthday bash or a large exhibition under its covers. With the tent erected properly, you need not worry about sudden rains or the intense heat. You just need to make your purchase sensibly to enjoy many years of use.

My husband and I love to travel. We like to tent camp in places that have lots of trails. My favorite place we’ve ever tent camped is Rocky Mountain National Park. Any other suggestions?

My friends and I want to go camping but we need to find a private camping site. We have a large tent and there are ten of us going. We make a lot of noise. And hopefully it’s around Randolph County, not in Randolph County just around it. Not a trailer campsite either. Thanks.

ANY CREATIVE IDEAS??

Should we just make it a little earlier in the day? The only thing is it’s going to be warm outside. The later the better.

I should mention that we DO plan on having a tent, but the funds are low so we’re looking to cut back. We’re paying for everything ourselves and we have thought of ways to cut back on other things as well.

I am looking at tents and want one that does not need a ground cloth to keep dry. What are the types of floors used by major tent makers and which ones would be considered to be as waterproof as a built in groundcloth?
