If you plan to take your business on the road and you want a caravan to support you along the journey, there are several things you need to keep in mind. Depending on the type of work you do, the features you may need will differ. Here's an overview of what to consider:

1. Room for Your Business and Supplies

The type of business you have dictates some of the amenities you need. For example, if you telecommute to an office, you may just need a laptop and a tabletop for working in your caravan. On the other hand, if you are going around the country to sell items, you may need ample storage space beneath the caravan to hold your products, displays, folding tables or other supplies for trade shows, fairs and other events. If you are a professional dirt bike rider, you need a trailer behind your caravan for your gear.

Alternatively, depending on the types of events you do, you may want a food truck that has living quarters in it or a caravan that has been converted so half of it is a food truck or stall to sell products. If you travel to different locations doing farming or contracting work, you may want a small caravan that offers a comfortable place to sleep at night that can be towed by your ute.

2. Ample Cooking Facilities

Regardless of the type of work you do, when you live in your caravan full time, you need a kitchen that is easy to use. Eating convenience food or surviving on fast food can get tiring as well as expensive. To avoid that, choose a caravan with a kitchen that features a stove, a microwave, a large sink and an ample size countertop for prep work. Storage space is also a boon.

3. Antenna

Whether you are a contractor, a craftsperson who travels to events to sell your wares, a telecommuter who wants to see the countryside or anyone else, you likely do some of your communication over the internet. An antenna fitted to your caravan can help boost your access to mobile phone signals, and in some cases, you may be able to subscribe to satellite internet. This small aftermarket addition can make a big difference when trying to run your business on the road.
