Charging your EV while towing a caravan or trailer can be challenging — but Caravan Friendly Chargers is here to change that. This smart, community-driven resource helps UK EV drivers find charging points with the space and access needed for a smooth stop, whether you’re staying hitched or need to unhitch nearby.
What is Caravan Friendly Chargers?
Caravan Friendly Chargers is a UK-based website designed specifically for electric vehicle drivers who tow caravans or trailers. It highlights charging locations that are genuinely accessible for longer vehicle combinations, making EV travel easier for those who love touring.
How It Works
The site offers a Search for a Charger feature where you can enter your current location or intended stop. The map then displays “caravan-friendly” charging points near you. Results are split into three practical categories:
- Drive Through: Charge without unhitching, with easy drive-in and out access.
- Remain Hitched: Plenty of space to stay connected and manoeuvre out safely.
- Unhitch: Designated areas to park your caravan nearby while you charge.
Why It’s a Game-Changer
Most public charging stations in the UK are built with solo EVs in mind. That can mean tight bays, awkward turning circles, and limited room for larger setups. Caravan Friendly Chargers takes away the guesswork by pinpointing locations where access isn’t an afterthought.
For EV drivers towing caravans, that means less time stressing over where to stop and more time enjoying the journey. It’s a perfect match for ONEEV’s mission to make charging easy, whether you’re planning a long road trip or finding a charger nearby.
A Community-Powered Resource
The site thrives on user input. Drivers can suggest new sites, upload photos, and leave comments to keep listings accurate and up-to-date. Even better, the team welcomes constructive feedback, helping the database grow alongside the expanding UK charging network.
They also run a blog with tips, updates, and insights from the EV caravanning community, plus links to relevant Facebook groups for sharing advice and experiences.
ONEEV’s Take
We commend Caravan Friendly Chargers for tackling a niche but important part of EV travel. Their work perfectly complements ONEEV’s own EV charging guides by adding specific, actionable knowledge for drivers towing caravans or trailers.
As public charging infrastructure evolves, specialist resources like this ensure no driver is left out — proving that EV travel can be convenient for every lifestyle.
