Here at the Lifestyle RV Workshop we understand that your Camper Trailer, Hypercamper or Caravan is not only your second home, but also a significant financial and emotional investment. And just like any investment, it needs to be cared for and maintained regularly.
Like a car, your van needs to be serviced at regular intervals to ensure optimum performance and safety. Often travelling on harsh, uneven roads and through a variety of weather conditions and changing landscapes it is imperative that your van or trailer is in peak condition and always ready to tackle the next adventure.
With this in mind, we recommend that you service your Camper Trailer, Hypercamper or Caravan every 12 months or 10,000 km’s, whichever comes first. However, if your van is spending more time off the beaten track than on the bitumen then it will be exposed to greater strains and stresses, so we suggest shorter intervals between services.
Our standard service includes checking the suspension, brakes, bearings, hitch bolts, wheel nuts, stabiliser legs and the condition of other components that keep your van safe to drive.

Maintaining your Camper Trailer, Hypercamper or Caravan is not just about keeping the mechanical components serviced and in top working order. It also means keeping it clean and free from a build-up of dirt or grime so you can get the most out of not just the mechanical components but your internal and external features as well.
Whether you’re taking a solo road trip around Australia or you’re caravanning with the family, even the most organised travellers can struggle to stay on top of keeping their vans clean and grime free. While you might start your journey with the best intentions, eventually, your Camper Trailer, Hypercamper or Caravan will need a thorough cleaning.
