How do I get the best price when I sell my campervan?

  • Carry out repair work

    Don’t worry about every minor scratch to the paintwork, but if your campervan has any larger dents, scuffs, or damage, then it might be worth considering getting these repaired.

  • Keep a full service history

    Try and have your service records and repair receipts to hand so our buyers know your campervan has been looked after.

  • Give a detailed and honest description

    Provide as much information as you can, along with the clearest images possible. Failing to mention any damage or other problems with your campervan could affect its valuation.

  • Provide details of any conversions

    Tell us about any modifications because these can affect your initial valuation, and if you can, provide supporting paperwork of the work done.

  • Remove any signwriting

    If your campervan has any graphics or decals, we’d recommend getting them removed as it will likely result in a better offer because there’s less prep work for the buyer to do.

  • Give it a good clean

    Clean it thoroughly both inside and out to get your campervan looking as close to showroom fresh as possible.

Selling my campervan FAQs

You'll just need your V5C logbook to sell your campervan. During the vehicle handover, you’ll need to remove the green 'new keeper' slip from inside the logbook, and give it to the buyer. You’ll then need to fill in the new keeper’s details on the rest of the logbook, and send that off to the DVLA to inform them of the sale. If you don’t, you might not get the full entitlement of any tax refund you’re due.
Yes, but remember that this may alter your campervan’s valuation. We’ll ask you about the changes you’ve made to your campervan and a member of our team will reach out via phone or email to confirm the details. At all stages, it’s worth providing as much detail as you possibly can about any modifications. If your campervan’s valuation changes as a result, we’ll let you know before it’s put into one of our auctions.
Glad you asked. Once you’ve entered your reg for a quick valuation, we’ll just need a few more details about your campervan and some photos. Once we’ve got them our team will be in touch to help you set a ‘reserve price’ - this is the amount you’d be happy to sell your campervan for, many customers get more!

Then we’ll do EVERYTHING else. As you go about your day your campervan will be advertised in our online auctions and our network of trusted nationwide dealers can bid on it. When the auction’s over we’ll let you know the result and the winning dealer will be in touch to arrange a free collection and your payment.

It’s completely free! No hidden costs or admin fees, all you need to think about is what you’ll do with the money!
Once your listing is approved:

  • We’ll get your campervan into one of our daily auctions - the speed of offers depends on the demand for your specific model. If it doesn’t sell at auction we’ll showcase your campervan for two additional days to give you a second chance to sell it.
  • Once you accept an offer you love, we or the dealer will be in touch within 48 hours to sort out the next steps. 
  • Make sure you have your documents ready to avoid any delays - our dealers will pick up your campervan on a day that works for both of you. 

So it’s pretty smooth sailing… or should that be smooth cruising?

Many of our dealers buy vans that are on finance. You’ll need to provide a settlement letter from your finance company. If the sale price exceeds the settlement figure, you'll get the extra cash, which is known as positive equity. 

But if the van's value is less, you'll need to cover the difference, called negative equity.

Just remember, the process for settling your outstanding finance may vary depending on your finance contract.

We connect you with a network of trusted dealerships, including franchised dealers, independent dealers, and specialist buyers. You'll receive competitive offers based on your campervan's details, helping you get a great price.
Most payments arrive on the same day as your campervan is collected, but some dealers have their own policies. Rest assured, we only work with trusted dealers to give you a secure and hassle-free experience.
