1

Choose the Correct Marketplace Section

Select the most relevant area for your caravan, mobile home, vehicle, trailer or land listing.

2

Write a Clear Title

Include the make, model or item type and the most useful identifying information. Avoid vague titles such as “must see” or “bargain”.

3

Add an Honest Description

Explain the age, condition, specification, important features, faults and anything a buyer should reasonably know.

4

Enter the Price & Location

Buyers want to know the asking price and where the item is located before making contact.

5

Add Contact Details

Provide accurate contact details so genuine buyers can reach you about the advert.

Better Photos = Better Advert

Buyers often decide whether to enquire based on the photographs.

Show the Interior For caravans and mobile homes, show seating, beds, kitchen, washroom and storage.
Photograph Damage Honest photographs reduce wasted enquiries and help buyers know what to expect.
Use Recent Photos Photographs should show the item in its current condition.
Use Good Light Avoid dark, blurry photographs wherever possible.
Remove Personal Information Check photographs for documents, addresses or other information you don't intend to publish.

Managing Your Advert

Change the Price

If your asking price changes, update the advert rather than leaving buyers with outdated information.

Update Information

Add useful details or correct information if something in the original advert changes.

Replace Photographs

Updated images can be useful if the condition, presentation or specification of the item changes.

Sold It? Tell Us.

Once your item has sold, let us know so buyers are not contacting you about something that is no longer available. We may display it briefly as SOLD to show genuine marketplace activity.
