Having a caravan checklist for tools is equally as important as the other checklists in the series. Even if you have a new or nearly new caravan, carrying a few basic tools could help save the day is something goes wrong. This list could be limitless and it really depends on how much you feel comfortable fixing. I personally take a minimal tool kit, which contains most things on this list. At the very least a gas spanner is useful as it allows you to disconnect the gas bottle should you run out. I also carry a multi tool, which is like a hammer, screwdriver knife etc in one tool

Over time your own personal caravan checklist will of course increase.

  • Spanners
  • Gas spanner
  • Long nosed pliers
  • Utility knife
  • Screwdrivers (philips and flat)
  • Jack
  • Hammer
  • Mallet
  • Cable ties
  • Electrical tape
  • PTFE tape
  • Bottle opener…

A good starting point is a tool kit such as

STANLEY 38-Piece Mixed Tool Set with Storage Bag – Includes Hammer, Pliers, Screwdrivers, Allen Keys, Measuring Tape, Level & Hardware – Durable, Portable, Reliable Performance – STMT0-74101*
  • EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS IN ONE SET: Includes the core tools you need for everyday repairs, installations, and maintenance – whether you’re tightening fixtures, mounting shelves, or assembling furniture. Built to handle the real work of real life.
  • DEPENDABLE 7OZ. HAMMER: The drop-forged compact hammer delivers balanced, solid strikes with a comfortable grip. Ideal for driving nails, light demolition, and general carpentry – this is your go-to tool for jobs that need force and finesse.
  • QUALITY YOU CAN FEEL: Four robust screwdrivers and 11 hardened bits cover Phillips, slotted, and other fastening tasks. Engineered to handle repeated torque with minimal wear – no slipping, no stripping, just reliable fastening.
  • A LEVEL HEAD ON EVERY JOB: A durable torpedo spirit level helps ensure straight lines and square installs. Whether you’re hanging frames or installing cabinetry, everything lines up the way it should.
  • TOUGH, PORTABLE STORAGE BAG: Tools pack into a heavy-duty zippered bag built to take a beating. Easy to carry, store, and stash in the truck, garage, or under your workbench.
