The following checklist will help you out prepare your caravan to enjoy road trips and camping sites across the UAE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clean Your Caravan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A caravan is not something you take every day for a spin. If it is left idle for long, chances are you will need to get some car cleaning products<\/a>. Ideally, you shouldn\u2019t let it sit in the dirt for long, as just like cars, your caravan is prone to environmental deterioration. Even the climate of the UAE contributes to faster degradation due to extreme weather conditions and constant dust storms.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHere are some caravan cleaning tips to keep in mind: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Start by cleaning the roof and then the sides<\/li>
- Avoid using abrasive cleaning substances<\/li>
- Check corners for signs of pest infestations<\/li>
- Check for signs for moulds as it can be a health risk <\/li>
- Check for signs of leakages that may have caused body damage<\/li>
- Polish after cleaning to add in a protective layer<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Safety Checks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLong camping trips require a thorough safety check to make your experience safe and hassle-free. Let\u2019s take a look at a list of things to check in car before road trip<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n- Make sure doors and windows are properly sealed and leak proof<\/li>
- Check or replace your fire extinguisher<\/li>
- First aid box should be well-stocked along with vital meds<\/li>
- Check your engine oil and lights if the caravan is part of the motorhome<\/li>
- Working batteries are essential for recreational camp activities<\/li>
- Visually inspect tires for lack of air pressure or other damages<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Equipment for Caravan Camping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Interior](\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/14063152\/How-to-Prepare-Caravan-For-a-Road-Trip-Body1-140620211126-1024x640.jpg\")
Equipped your caravan properly before driving out on a road trip<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nIf you are planning to make a long camping trip, you might want to consider stocking your fridge with food and drinking water. Don\u2019t forget to pack some cutleries and kitchen utensils along with processed tin food. If you will be making barbecues, stow up grill equipment and maybe some foldable lawn chairs for a social evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Entertainment Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Although for some, the purpose of a caravan road trip is to enjoy nature away from the bustling city life and all the electronic buzz around us. However, when on a long trip, children may just itch for some entertainment or you may have to stay indoors during an unexpected sandstorm or rain. While music is something everyone can enjoy, it isn\u2019t enough entertainment for longer trips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For times like these, you can opt for some indoor recreational activities like board or card games, movies, video games and ebooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Working Toilet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Caravans are usually fitted with cassette toilets so you don\u2019t have to worry about stopping in the mid-way for a public bathroom. Don\u2019t forget to load up on sanitary items like tissue rolls, soap, sanitizer and towels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Water and Fuel Supply<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If your caravan was left idle for long, you may have to flush out and refill the water tank. To ensure proper circulation of water before the trip, run the connected taps to check for pressure. If you are taking a gas cylinder for cooking, check for any kind of leakage or damage. It is better to get a new cylinder for the trip rather than an old one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plan a Test Run<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you are planning the trip for the first time, take the caravan on a test drive. If there is a problem with weight limit or tow hitch, get it sorted. It is best to plan a few small trips before you embark on a longer journey on your caravan. Smaller trips will get you a good grip on handling the vehicle.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By practising some common safety tips for roadside emergencies<\/a>, you can protect yourself and your surrounding from unforeseen dangers of the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFrequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\nHow much does a caravan cost in the UAE?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
