After I bought a new 2021 Toyota Hiace, I started my quest to find someone to do my conversion. This took me all around Hervey Bay, Brisbane and Ballina. My initial excitement turned into frustration and fear as it was confusing not knowing who to trust and was prepared to start my work for 1 to 2 years.
Through a RV magazine I contacted a fellow Hiace owner, and he suggested Oz Caravan World at Brendale. I met with them the following week and was really impressed by their knowledge, friendly approach, and willingness to help.
The team at Oz Caravan World, guided me with the design of the van, showing me options and guiding me through what could be done. Selecting colours, appliances, fittings etc was so easy in their display centre which had on display a bunch of option.
Throughout the conversion, they kept sending me photos and allowed me to visit 4 times to see the progress and chat to them. There was nothing that they wouldn’t do which was so relieving.
I could not have done this without Oz Caravan World, and I highly recommend this professional and friendly company to anyone who is looking to do a renovation or conversion.
Caravan Pre-Purchase Inspection
Purchasing a caravan is an exciting venture, however it comes with its share of challenges. Without a thorough caravan pre-purchase inspection, hidden issues may compromise your safety, comfort, and the overall value of your investment.
Our inspections are tailored to bring you some peace of mind because it empowers you with the information needed to make an informed decision.
Caravan pre-purchase inspections are only done in our service centre in order to be detailed in nature. We do not offer this service via a mobile service.
Our Inspection Process
1. Exterior Assessment:
Our experts conduct a meticulous examination of the caravan’s exterior, checking for any signs of wear, damage, or potential structural issues. This includes the chassis, bodywork, windows, doors, and external systems.
2. Interior Examination:
We delve into the interior components, inspecting the functionality and condition of appliances, fixtures, plumbing, electrical systems, and more. We check for potential water ingress which can be visible externally. Our goal is to ensure that your living space is not only comfortable but also free from any hidden defects.
3. Gas and Electrical Systems:
Safety is our top priority. Our inspections include a thorough assessment of gas and electrical systems to identify any potential hazards or non-compliance with safety standards.
4. Chassis and Undercarriage Inspection:
We examine the chassis and undercarriage to detect any signs of rust, damage, or wear that may impact the caravan’s structural integrity and roadworthiness as well as tow ball connection, lights etc.
We also perform gas certificates and roadworthy certificates which the seller of your caravan must provide as part of the sale.
If the seller has not obtained these certificates, you can suggest doing them at the same time as your pre-purchase inspection which will make it convenient for your seller.

Hervey BayWe bought a caravan renovation with the grand intention of renovating it ourselves. It became apparent very quickly that the quality and workmanship of our renovation was outside of our skillset. We spoke with 3 other caravan repairers/renovating companies and after meeting Oz Caravan World, it was obvious that they could meet our objectives in a timely and cost-effective manner. During our initial meetings with the Oz Caravan World team, we established a plan to maintain the unique characteristics of this model of caravan, which was important to us, whilst achieving a modernised look. This process was enjoyable for us and encouraging. The team at Oz Caravan World provided the knowledge, expertise, and comfort that their technicians were able to design, build and complete our renovation in an exceptional way which in fact was greater than we could have possibly imagined.

BrisbaneClaude and the Team at Oz Caravan World took on the challenge to renovate our Caravan. We met with a list of wants and wishes. Claude worked with us and our budget to maximize what we could do and we are now very happy customers. We liked our van before, now we love it! Claude kept us updated throughout the process and was happy for drop ins to see progress and see any issues that were uncovered along the way. Our van was finished ahead of schedule which was a nice bonus. We had multiple additional power points 12v, USB, GPO and Andersons installed, some interior and exterior placed in more convenient locations. Sirocco fans, bedside lighting, updating water pipes, replacing legs on the van, upholstery, re-sealing and our biggest want a King side bed with storage underneath. We are extremely happy with all the work and have just returned from our first trip and can say it is everything we imagined and more

BrisbaneInstall of toilet and shower in our caravan. Ute at Oz Caravan World responded promptly to our website request. After visiting the workshop and speaking to John from the service area we decided to go ahead with our renovation. He came up with solutions we hadn’t thought of. Communication was great and we were updated concerning the progress of the build, thanks Christian. We are thrilled with our addition and highly recommend Oz Caravan World. Friendly efficient service. Thanks to everyone involved.

BrisbaneWe live in Hervey Bay and purchase a Hiace van with a plan to fit it out for travelling. We had no idea where to start and luckily, we contacted Oz Caravan World who were so helpful from the outset. They took care of everything and it was really a great experience. A great business with great people.
