Caravan Storage

[John_374480980]

As a forum newbie I might be raising a subject that's already been thoroughly covered. If so I apologise. However, I'd be grateful for any advice members might have about Caravan storage sites in and around South Yorkshire. Any recommendations or cautionary tales would be very gratefully received.

Thanks,

John Stride.

Hi John

We use a storage site just of J30-M1(Romley House,Worksop Rd,Barlborough.A619).

Yorkshire Caravans have a COSSOA gold site in Bawtry

A bit of advice - make sure the site has space before you actually buy a van! We had friends who refused to believe that it might not be that easy to find somewhere - and were surprised to find, after they bought a van, that some sites near us have waiting lists!

Other than that, the best thing about our storage site is that we have electronic access 24 hours a day, and can remove and take back our van when we choose. It makes it so much easier if we want to leave at a strange hour, or return after an afternoon ferry and put the van back after midnight.

That is a good point - we store at Yorkshire Caravans and although we appreciate the good standard of protection offered, we are unable to take the van out before 9 am and have to return it by 5.30 pm.

No movements at night might be inconvenient, but could be a security advantage.

Also if you have a large caravan, some storage sites do not have space for them.

You have to weigh it all up.
