Caravan Cover Size Guide

Measuring for a Caravan Cover


Mobile homes and caravans have both material and sentimental value. If, like us, you don't find the thought of leaving your mobile home at the mercy of inclement weather very appealing, then you've probably already given our covers to protect your caravan page a glance. But before you buy your essential accessories, be sure to check our Caravan Cover Size Guide. Choosing the right size cover is not only crucial, but also easy, and it will only take a few minutes. To follow our Caravan cover size guide to the letter, remember to keep your measuring tape parallel to the ground, to include the gas locker, and to exclude the A-frame. That's all there is to it!

Caravan Cover Sizing Made Easy


Have a look at our diagram. As you can see, heights and other caravan measurements have not been included, as the size of your caravan cover will strictly be a matter of length. As mentioned above, leave out the A-frame, but include the gas locker in your measurement, tracing a straight line with your measuring tape from your foremost to your rearmost point on the caravan, including any permanent exterior fixtures. Some caution should be taken to give your caravan cover sizing a bit of leeway. Make allowance for satellite dishes or other equipment mounted on the caravan, but also opt for the smaller cover option if your caravan is between sizes.

To find the length of the cover you need, measure your motorhome parallel to the ground.
