Which is the Right Camper Trailers?

If you are regular campers, you are very well aware of the hazards that

come up if you are not equipped with the right kind of camper trailers. The

major component of any camper is its canvas. According to the standard of

the Australian market, AS 2001.2.18.1987 is the best standard, rather the

military standard. To get guaranteed confidence in the quality of the

canvas, buy it from a Guild member who knows out and out about the

quality of the canvas used.

Types of trailers – Choose the correct one

When planning to choose the right camper for you, think where are you

going to camp. Broadly, camping can be classified as being on road and off

road.

For on road trailers, it is generally a 7*4 trailer size, with the tent, the all

range of accessories, jockey wheels, kitchens (preferable deluxe), water

tanks, jerry can holders and electrics. As they are suspended to constant

rugged corrugations, it is better not to except a long life of an on road

camper.

However, an off road camper is better for the camping in the bushes or

forest tracks. They will have heavy-duty built up along with drawbar. It will

also have some chassis or frame to go along with the heavy off road axels

and springs. Check for the hydraulic or electric brakes which are a must for

these kinds of trailers. This gives higher maneuverability and flexibility in

tougher conditions. Always carry spare tyre and is better to match the

wheels and tyres with the primary vehicle.

Talking of on road trailers, stone guard is another major component which

should be present in on road trailers although it is not considered as

standard equipment. Toolboxes, dustproof spaces for storage, jerry can

holders are similar specifications as that of the off road trailers.

Proper ventilation is an essential factor that needs to be kept in mind. The

number and the size of the doors and windows are important as with direct

sunlight, the canvas tent becomes very hot. One must also stitch the insect

screens and the zipped awnings. There are different models and

combinations of annexes, awnings etc. available fit for every room of the

campers.

Budget and trailers

With more than dozens of manufacturers of campers, it is very difficult to

choose for the right variety. They range from $4000 to $40,000 and come

with almost all the basic amenities that a camper may need. Thus, after

thorough research, you will be the best judge to decide what kind of

camper trailer will fit your budget plans. It’s unnecessary to get drawn for

the packages that you don’t need. Although there are deluxe trailers, most

of the times, the average ones are fit enough for a comfortable camping

trip.
