There are a lot of things to keep in mind when planning your caravan trip, particularly if you intend to travel for a long time or to cover a lot of distance. Don't be daunted however, even if it's your first time traveling through Australia in a caravan you can use this simple checklist to make sure you've covered all your bases:

Consider joining a caravan club. This is a great way to meet people with similar interests in your area and you could pick up some great pointers about good locations to take your caravan in Victoria and useful equipment for your trips.
Take your time. This can be applied to all aspects of your caravan holiday, but it's particularly important when deciding on what type of caravan to buy.

Invest in an oil cooler. if you plan to tow with an automatic vehicle you'll find that kitting yourself out with a new oil cooler could save you problems down the road.

Pack smart. Load your heaviest items on the bottom of the caravan, and in the centre; lighter items can go at the top across the length of the caravan; and medium-sized items should be placed evenly in the middle and at either end of the caravan.

Accessorise. There are all kinds of accessories available to make any caravan holiday more comfortable and less stressful.

Bring some wood. Blocks of wood will come in handy as you might end up camping on uneven surfaces. Plan ahead and save yourself a headache.
