Campervans and motorhomes are larger and heavier than standard cars, which means moving them requires more planning. Whether the vehicle has broken down, been purchased long distance or needs to go into storage, professional transport can make the process much easier.

A professional vehicle transport service can help move campervans and motorhomes safely between homes, garages, storage facilities and buyers across the UK.

Why campervans and motorhomes need specialist planning

These vehicles can be more difficult to transport because of:

• Higher weight
• Greater vehicle length
• Increased height
• Wider bodywork
• Additional equipment such as awnings or roof accessories

The transport company needs accurate vehicle details before confirming the job.

Common reasons for campervan transport

Owners often arrange campervan transport when:

• The vehicle has broken down
• A campervan has been bought from another part of the UK
• The vehicle needs to go to a specialist workshop
• A motorhome is moving into seasonal storage
• The vehicle is being sold to a buyer far away
• The owner is relocating

What information is needed for a quote

When requesting transport, provide:

• Vehicle make and model
• Approximate length, height and weight if known
• Collection and delivery postcodes
• Whether the vehicle starts and drives
• Any mechanical faults
• Any roof racks, awnings or other modifications

Photos are useful, especially for larger or modified vehicles.

Access at collection and delivery

Motorhomes can require more room for loading than standard cars. Narrow residential roads, low branches, gates and tight storage facilities may create access problems.

Providing photos of both locations can help the transporter decide whether direct collection is possible or whether a nearby loading point would be better.

Transporting a non runner campervan

If the campervan does not start, mention this before booking. The vehicle may require winch loading or a transporter suitable for its size and weight.

Clear information helps prevent delays when the driver arrives.
