State the actual deadline and access arrangements so valuation, inspection, payment and collection can be discussed separately.
Explain the deadline behind the sale
Give the date that matters and say whether it is the payment date, the removal date or both. If access ends before your storage agreement does, include that detail. A complete picture helps establish whether the proposed arrangements meet your needs.
- Give the postcode where the vehicle is physically kept.
- Say when you or another authorised person can attend.
- Mention opening hours or notice required by a storage operator.
Keep the stages of a fast sale clear
A reply to your message does not mean an inspection or collection is booked. The vehicle must be assessed, an offer discussed and the payment and collection arrangements confirmed. Do not cancel storage or other plans based only on submitting the enquiry.
Touring caravan details that help the assessment
Alongside the body and living space, describe the parts used for movement and the equipment supplied. This is particularly useful when the caravan has spent a long time on one pitch or in storage.
- Make, model, year, berth, layout, single or twin axle and available model plate details.
- Damp history, soft flooring, panel damage and service reports.
- Known condition of tyres, hitch, brakes, road lights and motor mover.
- Awning, battery, security devices, keys and available CRiS or ownership records.
Your touring caravan location and access in Horley
If your touring caravan is kept in Horley, provide its actual postcode and access details. The collection address may be different from your home address. Collection availability, timing and any charges must be confirmed for the vehicle and location. If it is stored closer to Crawley, Redhill, Ifield or Reigate, tell us that location in your enquiry.
- At home: mention gates, parking restrictions and space to approach and move the vehicle.
- At a storage site or pitch: check opening hours, visitor requirements and whether you must attend.
- Tell us about missing keys, locks, flat batteries or any known reason the vehicle cannot move.
- Photograph access from a safe position; do not move an unsafe vehicle or climb onto a roof for pictures.
What to confirm before handing over your touring caravan
Keep the valuation, any inspection findings and the agreed sale arrangements together. A photo based estimate, an appointment and a completed purchase are different stages. Ask for any change to an offer to be explained before deciding whether to proceed.
- Confirm the agreed amount, what is included and whether any checks remain outstanding.
- Agree the payment method and collection arrangements, including any charges, before accepting.
- Check payment through your own account where a bank transfer is used before releasing the vehicle or keys.
- Keep a written record of the handover and the documents supplied.
