We are brand new to caravanning and collect a new twin axle van on Friday. I have been on a club beginners towing course and have a two hour road session arranged for Thursday to get used to towing a trailer around junctions, roundabouts and narrow roads etc. I will be getting a locknlevel kit this week and the van comes with twin alco wheel locks. I have a suitable towing vehicle for the van.
We will get the van on Friday afternoon and have a two hour handover session where we will 'hopefully' understand how everything works then stay overnight locally to 'bed into' the van. Saturday we have a 145 mile tow mainly on motorway and A roads to a family farm where we will stay for a few days to get used to the van. Water and electricity will be at hand.
My question is what do member think we will need in the immediate short term to kit us out to get going. We can source necessary kit from the dealer on Friday and Saturday.
My thoughts so far are a nose weight gauge, a level and a hitch lock, clean and grey water containers and toilet chemicals and bedding.
