Planning a campervan holiday can feel a bit overwhelming at times. First you must find your
campervan hire or
camper rental, then you must plan your agenda. With all of the planning and searching through all of the campervan hire Australia options, you might neglect to plan out the items you must bring with you to make your trip comfortable and fun. One of the best ways to tackle your packing chores is to make a list of the essential items you must have before you begin putting everything together for the holiday. Separate your list into different categories to make your task a little easier.
Kitchen
The first category of items you need for your campervan hire holiday are the kitchen items. Make a list of the items you need to make meals for your family. Include dishes, glasses, cutlery, utensils, pots, pans and cleaning products. Bring along linens for the kitchen that will help make cleanup easier on your trip.
Bedroom and Linens
Make sure that you take along enough blankets and linens to provide for everyone on the trip. Pillows are another essential for your packing list. Be sure there are enough pillows to rest every head on the holiday. Pack some extra blankets for cold nights on your holiday trip. You should also pack a selection of bath towels, washcloths and hand towels to get through the trip without laundry. Don't assume you will have the time or the facilities to wash your linens and take enough to cover everyone on the trip for the number of days you will be away.
Toiletries
Put together toiletry kits for everyone on the holiday. Gather enough small bags for everyone and include soap, toothpaste, a new toothbrush, washcloth, deodorant, and the cleansing products they like. You might want to include sunscreen, lotion and bug spray for the toiletry bag as well. Make one larger bag for items such as aspirin, bandages, antiseptic, antibacterial creams, cold and hot compresses and emergency supplies.
Games and Fun Items
Don't forget to pack some fun items for the campervan hire holiday. Choose age appropriate games and toys to occupy the children on rainy days. Include some outdoor equipment on your list of items you must have for a fun holiday. Consult with your list of planned activities to make sure you have supplies for every fun event on your campervan hire holiday.
Clothing
Allow your children to choose the clothing they want to bring along on the holiday, but make sure you check it completely before you leave. Make sure the kids have enough changes of clothing for every day of the holiday as well as warm items for cold days and nights. You should also make sure you have some extra changes of clothing for emergencies.
Start packing about a week before your campervan hire holiday. The sooner you put your essential items together, the more time you have to make sure your list is complete. Whether your holiday is for a campervan hire Tasmania trip or you are planning a backpacker campervans hire for high adventure, take along everything you need for a fun, safe and comfortable time.
Some campervan companies do supply linen and kitchen utensils so remember to ask before you book.
