Camper covers
« on: November 26, 2014, 08:00:08 PM »
Hello out there, can anyone advise where to buy dedicated soft floor camper trailer covers? I use a tarp and I'm sick of it. Regards, Phil from Emerald, Vic. ( I have no choice but to park Challenge Meridian under a huge oak tree, drops heaps of stuff)

Just to give you a rough idea of price I was quoted $360-$420 for a new PVC tonneau cover from a canvas place in Brisbane.

Got mine from Customline for $100.  Great value. Covers the entire camper, including the draw bar.

I just bought 2 off 4mX6m 2nd hand PVC tarps off eBay for $60.  Almost the perfect size for covering a Jayco camper.

If they work out pretty good, I might cut up one of them and fit zippers to the corners to make it a fitted cover.
