    Caravan storage costs and options.

    So, I've got a quote to have my caravan parked at a secure lock up with 7 day access from 6am to 8pm. This quote is for an outside space only in the yard. I'll let you know the price a bit later as I just want to gauge if the quote I got is on the money. The Manager of the facility gave a slick speal and gave me a price saying 'that's cheap compared to other local places'

    So, does anyone here do this and happy to let me know what you pay (per month) or anyone had quotes for this sort of thing themselves?

    Also, anyone thought outside the square here and store their van somewhere like a local business that has room and wants to make a few extra dollars?

    Cheers - Gav

    Van storage

    Gav, I would be interested to hear the figures you were quoted as I have a van down in VIC that has not sold so I will be looking at bringing it up to Sydney shortly. We don't have room to store it at our house.

    I have thought about putting it in at a nice coastal van park as a holiday point but I need to also look into those costs.

    If any one has some info on nice southcoast van parks within a three hour drive of Sydney & the approximate costs of long term holiday leasing I would appreciate the info.

    Sorry Gav, didn't keen to hijack your thread.

    Regards Chris.

    That would be cool climate.
    Those tropical people just don't realise they live in a place that's uncomfortably warm, do they Gav.

    Ok, the price I was given was $140 per calendar month. They claimed the going rate was $170 a month. I've found some for $100 but it is too far away. Going to keep looking and ask a few businesses in the area that have large under utilised yards if they want a few extra dollars. It's an old van that will have a pintle hook 3 feet off the ground to tow it, so it's not something anyone would want to (or could) steal easily, so I don't need 24/7 CCTV or anything like that. I just want to be able to grab it on a Friday arvo and drop it back on a Monday morning.

    Any takers in Sunbury?

    Agreed. Cool is good, warm and sweaty all year 'round isn't.

    I quoted a forklift to a storage place in baccuss marsh, he did caravan storage, pretty cheap, Pm if you want his number, or do what I did, start your own super fund and buy a factory..... to do "work"/landy/jag/trailer repairs
