We store our van there and got an email from them saying that the caravan and equipment sales business has gone into administration. They have confirmed that the storage facility will remain.

Shame. It is really convenient for us for parts and servicing. Will have to find a new servicing and parts supplier.

Find a mobile servicer who will be cheaper than a dealer.

Fully agree - we use an approved mobile service engineer, which means our warranty is still valid. He is more thorough, more convenient and cheaper!

I think that there are a few mobile servicers around Teesside so will do some research. Service will be due around Easter time next year.

The bonus of storing at Teesside Caravans and getting them to do the servicing was that they would collect the caravan from the storage plot, service it and put it back.

They had a rule that they didn't allow mobile servicers to work in the storage facility (would be tight on space between vans as well as protecting their servicing business I guess). I wonder if they'll change their minds on that....

There is another caravan storage compound just round the corner (Earls Way). When I stored my caravan there, they were happy to have mobile service engineers on site for servicing or fitting motor movers etc
