Apparently there may be some dealerships who are charging extra due to "sanitisation" when your caravan goes in for service and before you collect it. Others are requesting that carpets etc are removed and that the caravan is completely empty? Surely if you are going to remove the carpets you might as well remove the curtains, seats, mattress etc. In a way I can understand it, but are they checking their staff on a daily basis when they arrive at work?
Also on more than one government website it states that the virus will not survive longer than 9 - 10 days on material. Life span is even shorter on other materials like wood, plastics etc. So if you drop off the caravan a few days before its is due for the service by the time the service is to be done the virus should be dead plus the fact that the service department could ask you who has been in the caravan in the past couple of days and do a test on those persons when the caravan is dropped off.
After all when your car goes in for service, are they going to sanitise it or ask you to remove seats and carpets? It seems that in addition to the usual scammers there are others that may be taking advantage and using Covid19 as an excuse to increase their profits and get us to part with our cash. What will the service company do to sanitise a caravan? Would you be happy to pay the extra for the "sanitisation" that is if it even happens?
