So, you’re looking to sell your caravan to Static Trader and want to know the next steps you need to take after we have agreed to buy your static caravan.
Selling to Static Trader, a reputable caravan dealer, is the safest and most secure way to sell your caravan. You can be confident that you will be paid quickly and receive full support throughout the purchasing process.
Static Trader has outlined five simple steps you will need to take to successfully sell your caravan to us once we have agreed on a fair and honest price.
- Tell The Park Your Leaving
The first thing you will need to do is inform your park that you are leaving. Some parks require owners to formally notify them when a caravan is being removed.
The required notice period can vary, so it is advisable to submit this notice as soon as possible, along with any information regarding your intended removal. At this stage, you will need to complete a Customer Leaving Park form.
- Pay Any Outstanding Fees
Make sure all your utility bills are paid in full before completing your sale with us. This includes gas, electricity, water and internet charges.
You’ll also need to speak to your park about your pitch fees and whether any refunds are due for fees already paid.
- Caravan Disconnection and Pitch Removal
You must arrange with the park for the disconnection and removal of your caravan from its allocated pitch so it is ready for collection.
This involves disconnecting all services, including gas, electricity, water, and sewerage.
This service can only be carried out by the park and will come at a cost to you. Fees vary depending on the park and can range from £300 upwards. The cost should be outlined in your park agreement, so it is advisable to check with the park owner or manager.
- Caravan Collection
Once the caravan is ready for collection, we will provide you with a collection date.
At Static Trader we own our own caravan transporters, so we will always have the right vehicle for the job. We will also confirm with the park that the caravan is in a loadable position to ensure everything runs smoothly on the day.
- Full Payment
Once we have confirmation the caravan is ready for collection, our transport team will arrive on site to collect it.
We will inspect the caravan to ensure it is in the condition described. Once satisfied, we will pay the remaining balance and remove the caravan.
Constant Support
Static Trader will support you throughout the entire process to ensure a smooth sale and fast payment.
You will be allocated an Account Manager who will guide you through every step and assist you whenever needed.
Collection Caveat
Static Trader is a professional caravan dealer with a streamlined purchasing process and caravan collection service. However, on rare occasions unexpected issues can cause delays, these may include:
- Lorry breakdowns
- Equipment malfunctions
- Excessive road traffic
- Adverse weather conditions
- Employee illness
If any of these issues occur, we will keep you fully informed and do everything possible to resolve the situation as quickly as we can.
