There are many places to buy a campervan, including dedicated marketplaces (like Vancamper), dealerships, auctions, custom builders and rental companies.
Here's a run down of the best places to buy a campervan:
-
Private sellers: Campervan marketplaces like Vancamper, or general purpose classified sites are great places to buy ready-made campervans. Just be sure to inspect the vehicle and check its history before making a purchase.
-
Dealerships: There are many dealerships that specialize in selling new and used campervans. These dealerships may offer a variety of models and makes, as well as financing options and warranties.
-
Government Auctions: If you're planning to do the campervan build yourself, Government auctions are a good place to look for purchasing just the van itself.
-
Custom builders: Typically a more expensive route, but if you have specific requirements or preferences for your campervan, you may consider working with a custom builder who can design and build a van to your specifications.
-
Rental companies: Some campervan rental companies also sell their used vehicles at discounted prices. These vehicles may have higher mileage and wear and tear, but they may also come with maintenance records and a warranty. Many rental companies list their vans on Vancamper, so keep an eye out for their used inventory!
