I have one for mine and even though the roof is a pop up and fastened down when I put on the cover, it's difficult for me on my own, much better when I press-gang one of the kids to help!

However, I have put it on myself, I used a dining room chair to stand on. I rolled the cover from the two ends to the middle and threw the roll over the middle of the van roof and rolled it down to front and back end. It helps if its not a windy day!

I have just bought a 'cheap' cover 17/19ft (can't afford a protec one on earlier link) I see it took two people put that one on. I put mine on by myself using a wooden pole with a cloth tied over the end to protect the cover. I opened the 4 corner zips. It was a bit windy and started blowing off so I went around to the other side with the wind at my back. The wind then helped the cover blow over the caravan. It will be easy to do with two people and a long pole (or two). I will get help the next time to make it easier.

Fred.
