Do caravans need gas and electric safe certificates 

Dunno, but don't forget it will need a full geometric setup at WIM! 

 

Maybe a tyre thread for caravans next 

Do caravans need gas and electric safe certificates 

Nope, no legislation to enforce that, BUT for safety sake they are a good idea, and theoretically a commercial site could refuse you if they asked for the certificate and you don't have one.

 

Just to add .. Insurance company would have "wiggle room" if you claimed and had no valid certificates....    ....   if insured of course ..

That's an interesting point Mr Entwood.  Do caravan sites ever ask for proof of insurance? 

Your not allowed to launch a boat in the harbour here until the Habour Master has seen your insurance certificate, not quite the same I know...

Joking aside, there's no harm in getting the caravan chassis aligned with the tow car if possible,  especially if it's a twin axle jobbie...

20 years of bouncing in and out of campsites/over curbs and pedestrians could all add up to crabbing and tyre scrub

Works wonders on trucks

Seems a lot less hassle to me to get a canvas caravan.

The site I keep my caravan on does not ask tourers if they are insured, or at least I have never heard them. But I have to have my van insured as it is left there. Its one of the storage conditions

I'm with Kevin wood on this one. My canvas one is more spacious, allegedly goes up in 20 mins, and doesn't limit me to causi g chaos on the roads

Although Pikey Entwood did have room for a BBQ, and is currently cooking me chicken as we speak.
