CYCLONE KIMI: Is your property and caravan prepared for the upcoming weather? The best models and forecasters are predicting a near-Townsville crossing late tonight or early tomorrow morning.
Although there is always uncertainty with tropical cyclones, we’re taking no risks with the vans in our yard, and The Caravan Hub is prepared and ready to batten down the hatches tonight!
A quick checklist for your caravan:
- Windows and hatches are closed and locked
- Caravan is stored undercover (if possible)
- Stabiliser legs down
- Handbrake applied
- Awning rolled up
- All external hatches locked
Any objects near your caravan can become projectiles in strong winds! Store them away or tie them down!
Stay safe North Queensland! We are no strangers to these strong storms, but we are not complacent either!
The Caravan Hub – We’ll get you on the road!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our Senior Repairer, Pete!
Pete was The Caravan Hub's first employee in 2014 when the doors first opened as the Townsville Caravan Repair Centre, and Pete has since been operating his own bay, training junior repairers and trades assistants and consistently turning out the high-quality repair work that The Caravan Hub has become known for ever since.
Pete has been in the caravan repair industry for over 10 years, completing an apprenticeship as a Coach Builder before teaming up with The Caravan Hub.
Happy birthday mate, enjoy a few cold ones tonight!!

A big thank you to Caroline and Stuart, who have driven in from Mount Isa to take delivery of their New Majestic Tiara! Caroline and Stuart are no strangers to caravanning, owning campers and caravans in the past. And with some special requirements to be able to make it to certain campsites, they found the perfect caravan here at The Caravan Hub!
Thanks again for the laughs and safe travels!

Fantastic Ros, I am sure you will enjoy it so much that you will ask yourselves”why didn’t we do this before?”
Do you guys keep the website regularly updated with used vans?
Way to go Keith Roz Scott.. x. Travel safe x
TECH TALK: A very common question we're asked by new customers is, "What accessories do I need?" You can option your caravan any way you want, but our recommendation will always be safety - yours and the safety of those around you - comes first.
A key after-market accessory for safe towing is a professionally fitted weight distribution hitch.
When you hook your van up to your car, do both vehicles dip downwards at the hitch? Are the wheel arches above your front car tyres sitting higher than your rear tyres? When the weight of your caravan pulls your towing vehicle downwards at the rear, it can cause unnerving trailer sway, light steering, reduced braking responsiveness, less traction and misaligned headlamps.
A weight distribution hitch includes a tongue and adjustable hitch for your car and a-frame brackets and sway bars for your caravan. When fitted properly, the hitch redistributes the weight of the caravan evenly across all of your axles. Your car will be carrying your caravan along instead of dragging it behind.
Weight distribution hitches come in a variety of sizes and styles and it is important to purchase the right hitch for your needs.
Check out these before and after photographs from our yard. Our customer came to hitch up their new van and opted for a Hayman Reese weight distribution system, which we measured up and fitted for them at collection. You can see the difference a properly fitted weight distribution system makes!
