8 Must Add ESSENTIALS to Your Caravan Packing List
We get it. It's been a long year of being cooped inside. With things getting much better, now is finally your chance; your chance to spread your wings and dive headfirst into all the beautiful and complex caveats that nature has to offer. But the difference between a mediocre trip and a fantastic one comes down to how prepared you are when on the big and unpredictable road. Let’s look at 8 must-adds to your caravan packing list that will definitely come in handy.
1. Wheel Chocks On campsites, the last thing you want is for your caravan to accidentally move and cause a mess or accident. Chocks add that extra layer of security to guarantee that this won't happen. Before purchasing, make sure that the weight of the chocks is heavy enough to be useful.
2. Caravan TV Let’s face it, we all sometimes have the urge to sit in bed all day and watch your 32 inch tv or 12v tv while being cozied up with a nice and relaxing drink. Yes, even when your wings are spread and actively exploring the wonders of nature. It’s perfect, simple, and easy entertainment for you and the entire family! Thanks to nowadays’ technology, most caravan televisions provide the same viewing quality as your home device. Time to discover the best caravan TV for your wishes and budget!
3. First Aid Kit Life is always better when you have a first aid kit nearby. Caravanning is no exception! Be well prepared for scratches, minor injuries and insect bites and have basics at hands such as a bottle of sunblock and a pack of bandaids. No matter where the road takes you, safety first. You can create your own or buy a pre-packaged one. And, guess what! Some retailers even offer specific camping-first-aid-kits, it’s as simple as that!
4. Camper Levellers This one especially comes in handy when you love a good old off-road adventure, and enjoy camping in one of Australia’s jaw-dropping national parks. Whether it's unstable weather or having no flat parking areas insight, having a set of camper levellers will help you sit and sleep comfortably in your caravan. It’s much more effective and time convenient than D.I.Y. strategies such as digging up holes or setting up rock conceptions in order to level. Camper levellers do their job perfectly and can be set up quickly and easily.
5. Towing Mirrors Towing mirrors are crucial to the safety and even legally required by law. It’s going to make towing more stress-free, safe, and comfortable to do. Plus, getting into an otherwise avoidable accident is going to definitely sour your entire memory of the trip even if everything else was amazing.
6. Caravan Power Adaptors The outlets of many household appliances and chargers do not fit into the adaptors found on most caravans due to incapability in amp inputs. Buying power adapters that convert 15A power to 10A power will allow you to use any appliances that you bring. You also need this if you plan on powering up your van from a household outlet before your trip.
7. A Toolbox That’s right, just a toolbox with a variety of tools in case something needs fixing. We’ve all been there, even something as simple as a screwdriver or some spare bolt and nuts can be lifesavers on a camping trip. Don’t forget tools for caravan maintenance as well as tyre changes - thank us later! Tools to consider for your box include
● Electrical screwdriver set
● Air compressor (for tires)
● Sealant ● Electrical tape
● Wheel brace and wenches
● Torch and firestarter
● Equipment Lubricant
● A drill set
8. Spare Tyres Whatever you do, make sure to pack at least two spare tyres. Roads can get quite rocky and bumpy at times. The last thing you want to do is get stranded in the middle of nowhere because of a busted or flat tyre.
From torches to mozzie repellent and other caravan essentials, preparation is key (nope, we are still not tired of saying this)! Now that you are all set, it’s time for the fun bit. Let’s hit the road and take in all the beauty around you. You deserve this. You've worked so hard. You deserve the opportunity to relax and collect some unforgettable adventures. Ready, steady, go!
