FAQs - Camper Trailers Adelaide
In most cases, you can tow a camper trailer with a standard car or 'Class C' license, provided the van meets specific requirements. However, if the vehicle's gross vehicle mass (GVM) exceeds 4500kg, you'll need a light truck license or its equivalent to drive it legally. With a car license, you can tow anything from a small camper behind a compact SUV to a larger caravan without needing additional training or qualifications. However, learner drivers or those on a P1 probationary license generally cannot tow a caravan unless specific conditions are met.
Your vehicle must be suitable for towing the camper trailer you have. Typically, 4WDs and standard front-wheel drive cars, whether manual or automatic, can tow a camper trailer. However, larger, heavier trailers may require a 4WD. If you plan to go off-road, your tow vehicle and the camper trailer should be equipped for such adventures. The tow capacity and related specifications for your vehicle can be found in the manufacturer's handbook. If you're unsure, a camper trailer expert can help match the right trailer to your vehicle when purchasing.
Australia offers incredible camping opportunities, from stunning national parks to low-cost camping options. If you're planning to camp off-grid, proper preparation is key. Off-grid camping means you'll be living out of your camper trailer without relying on external services like power, water, or sewage systems found in most caravan parks. Key factors to consider include fridge size, water tank capacity, shower and toilet facilities, and your electrical system (including batteries and solar panels). A robust electrical system can keep your appliances running, especially when charged by a generator or solar panels. However, water supply is often the primary concern. Some camper trailers are designed for short, off-grid stays, while others can support extended trips. If you're unsure about your needs, consulting an expert is always a good idea!
