Lot's of caravanners are tight wad diy types and you can bet they have an extendable pole with a vikan brush at home. In the spring they tow them home just so they can get the stepladders out and caress their plastic box and impress the neighbours.  ;D

Caravans are a pain in the ass to clean; especially the roof.

I know this from experience; I've got a caravan.

i do a few tourers

40 quid a go ( its not that good a earner, but i can do them in the rain )

some of the older types would like to do themselves, but to be honest cannot do it now, so my details get passed around

dont think they would want their caravan cleaning just at the moment, for it to get all dirty again before spring..... maybe worth a shot around march before the season begins , maybe  ???
