Easter is one of the most popular times of the year for a caravan getaway. Whether you're heading to the coast, the bush, or a favourite holiday park, now is the perfect time to ensure your caravan is serviced, repaired, and ready for the road. A bit of preparation can mean the difference between a relaxing holiday and a roadside breakdown.
From caravan servicing to checking your trailer parts, this guide will walk you through essential caravan maintenance tips to keep your Easter adventure safe and stress-free.
Before you set off on your Easter trip, it’s vital to get your caravan professionally serviced. Routine caravan servicing helps identify minor issues before they become major problems, giving you peace ofmind on the road.
A comprehensive caravan service typically includes:
By booking a service ahead of the Easter rush, you’ll avoid delays and make sure everything is functioning as it should.
Here’s a quick maintenance checklist to ensure your caravan is ready for the long haul:
These basic steps will significantly reduce the risk of caravan repairs on the road and make your Easter break more enjoyable.
A quick exterior wash and inspection can reveal potential issues such as rust, cracks, or worn seals. Applying a coat of wax also helps protect your caravan from sun damage and rain, especially if you’re travelling across varying climates this Easter.
Tidy up the interior by checking appliances, testing lighting, tightening screws, and cleaning surfaces. Look out for loose handles, worn furniture, or anything that could come loose while travelling. A tidy and secure interior equals a more comfortable trip.
Good tyre health is non-negotiable. Always:
Make sure your batteries are charged, wiring is intact, and fuses are working. Test your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors.
For water systems, flush out old water and sanitise tanks. For gas, use soapy water to test for leaks and make sure connections are tight. If unsure, get a licensed gas fitter to check your setup.
Pack a basic toolkit with essential items like screwdrivers, fuses, bulbs, and spare hoses. Having these on hand can save time if a small issue pops up on the road.
