We are just getting the caravan ready for the weekend and quite a lot of the stuff is quite neatly put into the cupboards, now there is nothing really that can move around very much and all of our stuff is quite light weight so there is nothing heavy in the overhead lockers. Can I just leave it there?

We’re currently investigating an issue related to the forum theme and styling that is impacting page layout and visual formatting. The problem has been identified, and we are actively working on a resolution. There is no impact to user data or functionality, this is strictly a front-end display issue. We’ll post an update once the fix has been deployed. Thanks for your patience while we get this sorted.
How much do you move the contents around before the journey?

Hi,
Our van is stored at home. when we set up at the beginning of the season - usually February - everything is put into the van that is essential for caravanning and there it stays for the whole year.
As long as you put lightweight things in top lockers and heavy things under the seats you shouldn't have a problem.

Hello Kirstie,
Both Pam and Shiba, have advocated keeping heavy items low down and I fully agree with that. Whilst it is advantageous to keep heavy items as close to the axle as possible, you may find you need to move such items further forward or back in the caravan to achieve the correct nose load. But always try to keep the load as low down in the caravan as possible.

Hello Kirstie
We also pack the van at the beginning of the season and keep it that way until November when it needs servicing.
I find that the non-slip rubber 'matting' is wonderful in keeping things like pans and tinned goods safe and sound. I also use it to stop items such as cereals (usually transported in the kitchen area top locker) safe and sound. Well worth buying a roll from your local accessory shop as it has no end of uses.

Hi,
Like everyone else we also leave certain items in the van all year,and only take out once a year.
