Working Method
Relieved from A to Z
Glaravans has established a method that guides you through the entire process of searching for a caravan to the delivery of your own Travel Palace. We relieve you of all worries at all times and do everything we can to make your dream come true. How we do that, you can read below.
Orientation
The start of the adventure begins with a visit to our showroom and workshop. In a personal conversation, we can note all your wishes and answer questions so that you get a good idea of us.
Afterwards, we will create a suitable non-binding quote, and you can decide whether or not to proceed with us. Our quotes are always based on size and technique; the interior is often not relevant to the price.
If you live far away and it is logistically difficult to 'just' come by, we can also video call during the day or in the evening. This way, you can already develop a feeling and get an idea of us without having to take a day off.
A suitable caravan
Rest assured, you do not need to provide a caravan yourself (but you can); we will find one for you. When preparing the quote, we gained a good understanding of the required size of a caravan, and based on those requirements, we will search for a suitable model that meets our conditions.
We are always dependent on the supply and your taste. Therefore, the search for a caravan can take anywhere from one week to several months.
We prefer unique models that are rare on the road to best express our concept.
The ideal layout
Based on your wishes, we can relatively quickly create a concept of the layout. Think about the placement of the seating, a fixed bed, the kitchen, cabinets, and a possible toilet. Every caravan is a puzzle of your wishes and the technology that we turn into a cohesive picture.
We design the interior based on the Pinterest images you provided and the many materials and options we can offer you. In our custom-made showroom, we have an overview of the materials & fabrics, but in fact, we can apply (almost) anything if you wish.
Interior concept to reality
Elaboration
To properly construct the interior and the caravan, we develop a large number of technical drawings to provide a clear picture of all the furniture and technology.
There will always be details and issues that we sometimes prefer to examine in practice while we are building the caravan. For this, we regularly contact you to discuss details and decisions in addition to the construction photos.
So keep in mind that just like when building a house, you will regularly receive a question from us!
Barrel to Rice Palace
We have a caravan, a layout, and a developed interior: Then we can start with the most fun part of the process!
We will keep you updated sometimes daily with photos of the demolition and reconstruction of your caravan. Think of questions or discoveries; how high do you want this socket and what do you find comfortable to use? Small adjustments and decisions so that everything fits perfectly later on!
When we are almost done with the construction, we will also stop sending photos to have an extra surprising reveal at the handover! That is always extra exciting for both you and us!
Delivery
We expect all our customers to go trial camping for a weekend or a week after delivery. This way, you can test whether everything works properly and if we haven't missed any minor teething problems. After that, we will do one final check where we address all the points you mentioned. After this, the caravan should be ready for many camping trips.
You don't just buy a Glaravan; it's a camping vehicle for life. Each one is like our 'child'. Despite our legal warranty of 3 years, we will lovingly take care of the caravan and you as owners for a lifetime, even after delivery.
