How to sell a Caravan in Sydney
Get a professional caravan inspection
A pre-sale inspection documents tyre age, coupling condition, electrical systems and checks for water ingress. It supports your asking price and builds buyer confidence.
List all specifications accurately
ATM, tare, length, berths, solar wattage, battery type and capacity, water tank capacity, tow coupling type. Buyers with specific tow vehicles need these numbers.
Post on GOT ONE? with your full spec sheet
Buyers on GOT ONE? specify exactly what caravan they need — length, layout, off-grid capability, budget. Match their requirements and respond with your van.
Arrange a proper handover inspection
Walk the buyer through all systems: solar, water pump, gas, awning, slide-outs. Provide the owner's manual and any modification documentation.
Transfer registration correctly
Caravans must be re-registered or transferred in the buyer's state within the required period. Provide a bill of sale and ensure the compliance plate is visible.
