Cross-country moves to/from Pembrokeshire
Caravan transport prices in Pembrokeshire depend on the caravan width (10ft vs 12ft), distance, route complexity, and the number of police force areas the journey crosses. Wider 12ft static caravans typically cost around 20% more than 10ft models due to additional route restrictions. The best way to find your actual cost is to compare quotes from multiple transporters.
STGO Permits for Caravan Transport in Pembrokeshire
Static caravans exceed standard road width limits and are classified as abnormal loads under UK law. Moving a static caravan in Pembrokeshire requires STGO (Special Types General Order) notification to Dyfed-Powys Police, along with a planned route and mandatory escort vehicle. Your transporter handles the entire permit process — filing notifications, planning the approved route around low bridges and narrow stretches, and providing the escort. If the route extends beyond Pembrokeshire into neighbouring areas, separate notifications are needed for each police force area crossed. Allow 5 to 10 working days for processing.
Caravan Transport FAQ — Pembrokeshire
- Why is caravan transport to Pembrokeshire more expensive?
- Pembrokeshire is remote — there are no motorways, and the main routes (A40, A477) are single carriageway for long stretches. This makes the journey longer and slower for wide loads. The distance from major population centres also means the transporter has a long empty return trip, which factors into the price.
- Which routes do transporters use to reach Pembrokeshire?
- From England, the M4 to Carmarthen then A40 to Haverfordwest is the standard route. From North Wales, the A487 coastal route or A470/A40 inland. Your transporter will plan the most practical route based on your caravan width and the specific destination park.
- Do I need to be present when my caravan is moved in Pembrokeshire?
- Someone needs to be at both the collection and delivery sites in the Pembrokeshire area. At the collection end, you or a representative must confirm the caravan condition and hand over keys. At the destination, someone needs to direct the transporter to the exact pitch and verify the caravan is undamaged. If you cannot attend, arrange for the park manager or a trusted person to be there on your behalf and brief them on where you want the caravan positioned.
- How far in advance should I arrange caravan transport in Pembrokeshire?
- For moves within or to Pembrokeshire, book at least 2 to 3 weeks ahead. The STGO police notification process requires a minimum of 2 working days, but most forces recommend 5 to 10 working days. If your route to Pembrokeshire crosses multiple police force areas, each force needs separate notification which adds time. Spring moves (March to May) are the busiest period — book 4 weeks ahead during peak season.
- Is my caravan insured during transport to Pembrokeshire?
- Yes. All reputable caravan transporters serving Pembrokeshire carry goods-in-transit insurance covering your caravan during loading, transit, and unloading. Cover levels vary between £50,000 and £250,000 depending on the transporter — ask to confirm their policy limits before booking. If your caravan is worth more than the standard cover, discuss additional insurance options. We recommend getting written confirmation of cover before the move date.
