Camper trailers are an incredible thing to invest in, particularly if you take your time in the great outdoors seriously! Now, a camper trailer model of any kind is never, ever going to be cheap (and if it is, it’s probably way too good to be true), so you want to be absolutely certain that you’re making the very best choice for you. Pouring your hard earned money into a camper will give you so much in return, just so long as you are mindful and careful in your selection process. If you’re curious as to the right way to go about finding the perfect camper model for you, then read on! Here’s how to pick the right camper trailer…
Budget
First things first, your budget. This one might not be any fun, but wow is it necessary! Figuring out how much you have to work with will determine where you can shop, what kind of model you can afford and whether you’re able to enjoy the perks of a few accessories to enhance that upcoming camping experience. Do the serious work first, and the whole hunting process is going to be so much easier, promise! Now where did you put that calculator?
Next, capacity. You need to secure yourself a future proof camper trailer that can realistically carry your entire camping clan, otherwise, it won’t be money well spent. Be mindful of whether you plan on accommodating guests or whether your family might grow by a baby or two in the next coming years to make the best decision possible. You can find models that can sleep anything from between two to six or more people, all options are worth exploring.
Capabilities
The best choice of camper trailer will be the style that fits best with your budget, capacity requirements and camping lifestyle! Pay some thought as to where you usually like to roam and explore. If you’re a huge fan of the road less travelled, then an off road camper trailer will probably suit you best. Perhaps you frequent a campsite that’s fully stocked with all amenities you could possibly need? Then a more basic model will work perfectly for you.
Soft Floor vs Hard Floor?
Soft floor trailers sit on the ground and give you more of a tent experience than that of a mobile home. You can add rooms to their structured tent interior and they stash away easily making for fast, lightweight travel. Hard floor trailers (either forward or rear fold) sit above the ground and give you that home away from home feeling that most people are looking for when they’re hunting for trailers. You get segmented rooms, major protection and maximum convenience.
Add ons and Accessories
Remember that you can always enhance your camper trailer with the right add ons and accessories. This can be explored when you’re first searching and purchasing, or you can look into accessories down the line when you have the budget for it!
Seek Opinions
Open yourself up the huge community of Aussie campers! There are plenty of trade shows, online groups and friendly fellow campers hanging out at the grounds to gain insightful tips and opinions from. This is a great way of getting advice that comes from first hand experience.
Pick The Right Provider
Finally, make sure you’re shopping from a friendly, transparent, Australian provider that’s committed to helping you make the right choice for your lifestyle. This makes all the difference from purchase to maintenance and everything in between!
