Remove your tent and get hides
Lexx:
The reason why no such feature is in the game is because we don't know how to do it: Using the tent walls isn't possible. Adding some other item to use feels strange, etc. The only way I could imagine this, was with adding a caravan cart to use. But here the problem is, from where the hell is that thing coming if you build a tent. This led me to another idea: Building a tent will require brahmin hides and a caravan car (with the hides in it's trunk). Though, I bet players wont like that, as it makes it harder to build a tent.

would be a reason to use the bank to store the caps needed for a caravan but iirc the only places to obtain them right now are junktown and ncr?

"Back in the day", the Car was made a companion to simplify implementation (or was it the Trunk?), which of course caused problems.
Those problems seem to have been fixed.
So make it that Tents are companions that don't move, and you can only have one of them.
When you "/remove tent", done in the tent area itself by its creator, the "companion" is removed from your character record and a "GM command" is executed that drops the 0-7 hides that you get from destroying the tent.
Just like the way GMs make stuff during events.
"/remove tent" would use a modified version of "~disband party"
I hope this solves the problem.

What about adding a tanned hide or something like this (we could also remove the hide from this wooden construct):
I know the scenery object for this exists but i cant find an image of it now.
This object could be placed next to the tent and if used/skill[repair]/skill[science] you disassamble the tent.
You might even make a little dialog to prevent unwanted disassambling "Do you really want to disassamble your tent ? Your tent will be lost if you leave this location" if you dont like the safety trough skill usage.
