Poll: Do you anchor or skirt your holiday caravan?

POLL NOW CLOSED – Thanks to everyone who voted

Anchoring and skirting your static caravan or holiday lodge has many benefits.

Anchoring on static

An anchored caravan will prevent it from tipping over or getting washed away during extreme stormy weather and flooding.

And caravan skirting will help to protect the underside of your unit and provide an extra layer of insulation by minimising draughts and reducing the risk of frozen pipes.

In this month’s community poll, we’d like to know if your holiday caravan is anchored at each corner and if it’s skirted around the bottom?

  1. Our park owner stopped allowing owners to put skirting around their vans … even although we have a verandah around the van … reason given was access harder for workers to reach access points ..

      1. I think you will find that the majority of Static Caravan Insurance providers have a clause within the documentation that the Unit must be Anchored at 4 Points,so whether skirted or not is irrelevant. Be Careful as this could void you insurance.
        Hope this helps.
