Tell us about your caravan and where it's kept, and we'll come back with a price.
Please note: we don't buy static caravans or continental brands (e.g. Hobby, Tabbert), and we don't offer a standalone transport, collection or delivery service.
Samco Caravans are caravan buyers for North Wales, and every route we offer starts on our sell my caravan page. We trade from our own yard on Bayley Street, Stalybridge, about an hour from Deeside, and pay for what we buy, so your details are never passed to traders.
The whole of North Wales sits inside our free collection radius of 150 miles. The valuation costs nothing, your offer is held for 30 days, and payment lands by bank transfer before the caravan is hitched up and towed away.
We have bought caravans for 17 years, 150 of them last year, and we buy caravans in North Wales all year round. Would you rather aim for a retail price, or trade up to another caravan? Sale or return and part exchange are compared below.
To sell a caravan in North Wales you never have to tow it anywhere. Three steps take you from first message to money in your account.
Make, model, year, berth and layout, with photos inside and out. Tell us about any damage or damp you know of.
We inspect within 7 days of your enquiry, show you every damp reading and give a firm figure, held for 30 days.
Collection is booked around you, from a driveway, storage yard or campsite. The money is transferred before it leaves.
Selling to us is the quickest, sale or return aims for a retail price, and a private sale leaves every viewing and payment check to you.

Trading up rather than cashing out? Our caravan part exchange takes yours against anything in stock, and our caravan sale or return page explains how brokerage works.
A caravan valuation in North Wales follows the same six checks as one at our yard. Want a guide figure first? Value my caravan online.
We meter window surrounds, locker seams, the wardrobe base and washroom corners. Under 15% is generally fine; 20% or more means water is getting in.
Bed boxes come up and the floor is pressed inside the door and by the shower tray. A soft, spongy patch points to long-term water ingress.
The 17-digit chassis number on the A-frame or window etch must match your CRiS document, which shows the caravan is yours to sell.
The motor mover runs both wheels in both directions. Heating and fridge are tested from cold, the fridge on all three power sources.
We read the tyre date codes, then check the AL-KO stabiliser hitch and friction pads, the corner steadies and handbrake travel.
Stamped service books and habitation checks add value. MTPLM and payload decide which tow cars, and so which buyers, it suits.
We collect from Wrexham and Flintshire, Denbighshire, Conwy, Gwynedd and Anglesey. Most runs follow the A55 along the coast, so Deeside is about an hour from our Stalybridge yard and Holyhead under two and a half hours.
Every town in the table is inside our 150-mile free collection radius, so you never tow the caravan yourself. Collection from a seasonal pitch, storage site or driveway is booked on a day that suits you.

Handing a caravan worth thousands to a buyer driving in from Greater Manchester is a fair thing to be wary of. This is how the day works.
