REDISCOVER RENEW REBIRTH
'Upcycling’ is a social trend that permeates many aspects of our lives. A term coined in the late 1990s, upcycling commonly describes a process of converting materials and products into new materials of better quality or utility. It’s another way of saying ‘Reduce, Reuse and Recycle’.
Whether it’s utilising old round garbage bins or bathtubs as outdoor planters, stripping vintage clothes apart to make fresh duds, or refurbishing old furniture, it seems that many of us are playing our part to reduce unnecessary waste.
It’s the same with old caravans. As we go about our daily lives, we can often see them languishing on their lonesome — unused, unloved and deteriorating. How many of us have wanted to rescue these old ladies and bring them back to life? Perhaps you already own one. If not, there are plenty of ways to acquire a vintage caravan. And, if you’re lucky, a property owner may be happy for you to simply tow away the old van from their back paddock.
With an upcycled caravan, you open up a host of opportunities to change the way you live or to earn some extra money.
