sorry to hear your selling up BB, i guess as how to do it depends on how quick you want every thing to go, selling up all in one , will get everything off your hands quicker but may not get you as much cash in pocket as selling ,the 'van, mover, awning etc as seperate items.
as to places to put ad's , gumtree and fleabay are as good as anywhere ,given the fact your advertiseing it elsewhere too
------------- no tin tent outings booked as yet ,just another cruise in Sept' booked so far

I'd sell the lot as a package on ebay or autotrader.
Our lads dont come with us on holiday at all anymore and to be honest we haven't ever used the caravan enough really anyway. We bought our five berth Swift Utopia new in 2004 almost at the time when the eldest wasnt that interested. Some would say sell it! but we like the option of it being there to use, its in undercover storage so never gets really weathered. Last year we had a number of weekends away in it, just the two of us, and a long trek through France and Spain for almost 4 weeks. This year we haven't planned anything and may not use it at all and have a holiday by plane somewhere, we also have the advantage that we can stay at my parents place on the Costa Del Sol when we want, but would you want to spend all your holidays with your parents!!!

I almost sold it all off 3 years ago in the aftermath of a nasty divorce, but the 'van was in such good nick, and I knew I would never be able to afford to buy a new van of this quality in the foreseeable future.
I'm glad I didn't, as I'm now using the van again with a change of circumstances (new wife!). It didn't cost much to store and keep insured, and as that was on a CASSOA site it wasn't cluttering up my drive either.
Once you get quoted £800 for a week in a dodgy B&B, believe me, you will miss your 'van.

Hi BB. Really sorry to hear you're thinking of giving up. I can only echo the sentiments of many on here. Do think about it hard and long, but if you are convinced this is the way to go, then no-one will be able to talk you around.
Best wishes
------------- David
