Apologies if this is duplicating any other posts, but I've done a search and can't find anything recent on this specific query
I need to make my life easier when pitching my caravan (hence my 'Reversing' thread ) and hooking it up to leave on miserable rainy days
I would love the all singing all dancing mover(s) but looking for something a bit more less expensive, although I'm not fully against biting the bullet if it is a long term investment
I am new to caravanning, but foolishly invested in a 7.5m twin axle as my intro to caravanning. After a bit of practice I managed to hitch it up easily and drive on different types of roads, but think I will struggle for a while when arriving and leaving sites as we may only go away 4 or 5 times a year (which is another factor why I may not buy top of the range mover)
Anyway, my questions are:

Anyway, my questions are:
- With twin axle I've been told you need a mover for each wheel/side of the caravan, doubling the cost. Is this correct?
- Realistically, how much on average could I pick up a mover, second hand or new, for my type of van?
- If I invest in a mover can it be transferred to my next van?
- I am relatively fit and able (albeit carrying a couple of extra pounds (stone )) so is Motorised Jockey Wheel a suitable alternative?
