Valet Service
We offer a full pre-export valet service, covering both the inside
and outside of the caravan. this includes the roof, wheel arches,
underside, bathroom, cooker, fridge, etc. So your caravan is as
good as new when it arrives with you!
Road Freight
Exporting to Europe? Road freight might be the solution for you!
Loading the caravans straight into a trailer, this method can
streamline shipping, especially to landlocked countries in
Europe.
Flat Racks
Though one of our less common methods of shipping, the use
of flat racks is an option for caravan movements. A flat rack is a
type of container but with only the end walls and the floor, so it
is open on both sides and on top. These are generally used for
out of gauge cargo, which is cargo that exceeds the size of a
container but is still sailing on a container vessel.
Ro-Ro (Roll on, Roll off)
Ro-Ro vessels are not dissimilar to a car ferry, only far larger and
without the need for passenger space. Often an option for
caravans which are too wide for a container, namely the
German brands Hobby, Tabbert, and Fendt, among others. With
this method of shipping, caravans are delivered directly to the
port and quite literally rolled on and rolled off of the vessel,
being lashed down to the deck (see right).
Container Shipping
The most common method of exporting caravans is in
containers via sea freight. We book with a range of shipping
lines and hauliers in order to the best rates for our clients,
loading the containers at the most efficient depot depending on
the caravan’s origin in the UK.
