I am wondering if anyone back in NZ took a caravan with tehm from the UK?

Did it just goin the container with everything else?

I have the same question also as would like to take my caravan to NZ

A friend is just looking into it at the moment it will go on a roll on roll off I will try and find out costs if that helps

Yep we brought ours over 2 years ago, no problems, it went into a 40ft container with our household things. Best thing we ever did as worth so much more here, and used it plenty. Now on the move across the ditch, and will sell the van and hopefully make a bob or two

rsjam

thanks for that wendles. I would need to do the roll on roll off as too wide for a container--- mine is a static caravan 28x12 but so lovely I want to take it with me

hi minky--as your friend is looking at roll on roll off i would be very keen to know any details, thanks

Very, very expensive to buy here - I'd definitely bring it with you!

We brought our out with a company called upakweship they were great, we also brought a car and other stuff through them later on, there email is [email protected] he is really nice and helpful and it cost us 2000 pounds. when it arrived here Maf steam cleaned it for 220 Dollars and the plugs needed to be changed electrician done it, as he has to sign it off so you cant do it yourself $200.

Never looked back tell them you will clear it at customs yourself really easy saves more money an hour it is all done and we loaded the van with lots of shopping and Maf were amused at the walkers crisps and gravy granules.

Hope that helps

thank you for your interest. I would need to truck my caravan from Dorset to Southampton---- did anyone need to steam clean the van here or is it just done in NZ? I will email the link you gave me and ask few questions ---thanks for that

rsjam

thanks uknzbc will check out that email address and thanks for the recommendation
