Taminda, Tamworth NSW
Seven vans, every one loaded with the kitchen, the beds, the chairs and the gear you'd otherwise be buying. Hitch it up yourself, or we'll tow it out, set it up when we get there and come back and pack it away at the end.
What we do
We hire out seven vans from the yard at Taminda, and we service and repair caravans for people who already have their own. Plenty of the repair work walks in off the New England Highway, mid trip, needing something sorted before they can keep going.
Four to five berth vans, short term or long term. Every one is fully equipped, thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between hires, and comes with a handover session that runs about half an hour so you know how the lot works before you drive off.
Look through the fleet
Fridges, diesel heaters, water pumps and the rest of it. If you're passing through Tamworth and something has packed it in, call before you drive on. Most of our Google reviews are from people in exactly that spot.
What we work onThe fleet
From a 12 foot pop top you can tow behind a big sedan, up to a 20 foot van with a full bathroom and three bunks. Ratings below are each van's own score on Camplify, from the people who have hired it.
All of these are sealed road and campground vans. None of them is built for off road or beach work.
New Age Road Owl, 2019
Three fixed bunks with a removable ladder and safety rails, a full east to west bed at the front, and a dinette that converts to a sixth berth for a child. The most booked van in the fleet.
New Age Road Owl Comfort Plus, 2020
A queen bed plus three fixed bunks, insulated for all seasons, with dual power for the fridge and hot water so you can run on gas or mains. Room for everyone without overcomplicating things.
Hike RV Grandrover, 2023
The newest van in the fleet and the biggest at 20 feet. A practical layout with a proper kitchenette and a comfortable living space, built for weekends away and longer stays.
Hike Granger, 2022
Straightforward and easy to tow, with a well laid out interior and a cosy living space that makes setting up camp simple. Ideal for couples or a small family.
Hike RV Granger, 2022
A little extra space and comfort while keeping things simple to tow. Comfortable beds and a functional kitchenette, well suited to weekend escapes and events.
Domain Caravans Wave Finder, 2022
A modern 19 footer with a practical layout and power set up for both powered sites and light off grid use. Clean, reliable and ready to go.
Jayco Eagle Outback pop top, 2011
The little pop top. Two double beds plus a dinette that makes a child's bed, up and relaxing in a few minutes, and the only van in the fleet that takes a well behaved dog. No shower or toilet on this one.
Not sure which one suits the trip? Ring Dennis on 0419 802 505 and he'll tell you straight.
The most booked van
A 2019 New Age, 19 feet, sleeping five. Three fixed bunks with a removable ladder and safety rails, a full size east to west bed tucked in the front, and a dining area roomy enough that it converts into a sixth berth for a child.
Full bathroom with shower, toilet and vanity. Reverse cycle air con and a 240 volt fan heater. TV, DVD and stereo. A large split door fridge freezer, microwave and gas cooktop in a kitchen that's already got the pots in the cupboard.
“Great van. We have hired the same for past 4 years and it makes our weekend so much easier and enjoyable”

What's already in the van
Fully equipped is one of those phrases everybody uses, so here are the actual drawers. Plates, cups, knives, cutlery, the cleaning gear, the camp chairs in the boot. You bring food and clothes.
Annex, generator, portable brake controller, towing mirrors, BBQ and linen are all available as extras.
Delivery and setup
If towing isn't your thing, or you just can't be bothered after a long week, we'll bring the van to you. The delivery price covers transport to your site, setting it up when we get there, and coming back to collect it at the end.
Each booking means several trips, and we don't charge for all the travel involved or for our time. The fee only goes toward fuel and running the vehicle, which is why it moves when fuel prices do. Anywhere within 500km of Taminda is fair game, and if you're outside the list below just ask and we'll quote it.
Places we deliver to
Delivery is quoted on the distance and the travel time. Prefer to save it? You're always welcome to pick the van up from Taminda yourself.

Shows, comps and festivals
Horse comps, ag shows, campdrafts, music festivals and work trips. If you're competing or working somewhere for a few days, staying on site in your own van beats driving back and forth to a motel. We've had people stay twelve nights straight, and one lot who have hired the same van four years running.
We sponsored a class at the 2023 NRHA Oceania Affiliate Championships, so we know that crowd well.

Servicing and repairs
Running seven hire vans means fixing them, and over the years that turned into fixing other people's too. A fair bit of the work is travellers who've pulled into Tamworth with something not working and a schedule to keep.
We'll test it properly before we replace anything. More than one review on here is from someone who came in expecting to buy a new pump and left having paid for a switch.
Call before you drive onThree way fridges that have stopped running on gas, and the fault finding that goes with them.
Supplied and professionally fitted, and serviced when they stop firing in the middle of winter.
Pumps, switches and plumbing. Tested properly first so you replace the part that has actually failed.
Travellers passing through Tamworth who need something sorted the same day so they can keep going.

Dennis and Jade
Dennis has been hiring vans out of Tamworth since December 2018. Jade works alongside him, and between them they do the lot: the cleaning, the setting up, the towing out, the handovers and the repairs.
Three hundred and fifty reviews later the score sits at 4.9, and the same two names keep coming up in them. That's the whole business really. There's no depot, no counter staff and no call centre. You get Dennis.

“Service exceptional. Owner went out of his way to service our Webasto non working diesel heater for us when we were on the road going South in winter after we were told by another repairer it was no good, needed a new one and he couldn't to it for two weeks. Thankyou so much again. Sorry I didn't get your name after all of that!”
“The service was exceptional. Our caravan 3 way fridge was not working on gas. We dropped in on our way through Tamworth and Dennis kindly took a look. He was able to fix the problem and our fridge is now fully functional again. Nothing was too much trouble, a genuine professional. Highly recommend. Thanks Dennis.”
“Denis sorted our water pump, he could have charged me for a new pump as first thought as I had no idea, but he did an extra test and replaced a faulty switch. It's to good to see there are still honest knowledgeable tradesmen about. Cheers Denis.”
“The best! I have been using North West Caravan Hire for several years now and truly could not fault them. Vans are great and the service exceptional. Dennis and Jade go out of their way to ensure vans are fully equipped and the service with setting the vans up is second to none and takes so much stress out of the holiday with the first day set-up! Nothing is too much trouble.”
“Absolutely fantastic service!! Dennis and Jade went above and beyond to make our ALEC stay stress free and comfortable. Beautiful clean van with a much appreciated air con on a hot weekend. Lovely to have a home base feel at our daughters horse comp. Fabulous service guys!!”
