Hi
A question all
Can i move my caravan to a repair shop for work to be done.
Bearing in mind that the workshop is open legally, and repairing Caravans and Motorhomes.
Now the tricky bit.
THESE CAN OPEN.
bicycle shops, vehicle repair and MOT services
Storage and distribution facilities including delivery drop off or collection points, are also able to open where the facilities are in the premises of a business allowed to remain open. For example, you can return an order to a drop box in a supermarket or drop it off for collection in a newsagents. Deliveries of supplies can also go ahead for premises that are otherwise required to close by law.
Businesses that provide services (rather than goods) - such as accountants, solicitors, and estate agents - are not required to close, unless listed below.
This includes businesses which have as their main activity repair services, such as electronics repair services. This does not include shops that would otherwise be considered non-essential retail, such as a mobile phone store that offers some repairs.
THESE CANNOT OPEN
car and other vehicle showrooms and other premises, including outdoor areas, used for the sale or hire of caravans, boats or any vehicle which can be propelled by mechanical means. However taxi or vehicle hire businesses can continue.
For example a customer could order a rental vehicle online and collect it in person.
car washes (except for automatic car washes)
So my local repair center is open, trading legally as well.
Van requires repairs, and i have been asked to take it in.
So is it against the rules or not.
I have worked all past year through COVID so am aware of restrictions and the law, but this does seem a grey area this time round.
Did ring Derbyshire Police, call center said they cannot advise me.
Might as well rang the local takeaway lol.
Stay safe

Hi Billy
I already took it.
Needed new motor mover and it's finally arrived.
And service due in 4 weeks so kill to birds at one go.
Need to get it fitted so i can get the van back down the side of the house and regain parking on the front.
But it's a question that many are asking, with no definitive answer from anywhere.
I trolled the GOV sites to get the above, and you need to read and add and explore loads of avenues to get near an answer.
Police did see me but was parked facing the other way, thought they where going to turn around and blue light me but it never happened.
The workshop is only about 4 miles away in Langley Mill.
But as the DVLA have enforced, alongside police, and multi agency's recently, with trailers, vans, cars, HGV checks, with OPtramline.
All vehicles need to be kept in a roadworthy condition even with COVID Restrictions being in place.
