Used caravans in Canada typically sell for C$3,750 to C$28,300 (about $2,700 to $20,200). Caravans are priced on damp above everything else, and a damp survey is the single most useful thing a seller can provide.

Selling a caravan in Canada
Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.
Canada Post, Purolator and UPS cover the country, but rates change sharply between provinces and remote postcodes carry surcharges.
Shipping cost is the single commonest reason a Canadian listing stalls. Decide collection versus courier before you price it, and say which you are offering.
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.
Working out what yours is worth
- Have a damp survey done and share the readings
- Walk the floor feeling for soft or spongy areas
Getting it ready
- Check for damp yourself around every window, roof light, seam and the front and rear panels, and along the floor edges.
- Test everything: fridge on all fuels, heater, water pump, lights, sockets, and the gas system’s most recent safety check.

- The full interior from both ends, including beds made up
- The chassis number, the paperwork, and any damp stain, delamination, crack or repair
Put in the description
- MTPLM and unladen weight, which decide what car can legally tow it
- Service history, last damp report, and gas safety check date
- What is included — awning, motor mover, battery, gas bottles, accessories
Make, model, year, berth and layout: “[Make] [Model] 2015, 4 Berth, Fixed Bed, Motor Mover”. Berth number and layout are the searches. A motor mover, awning or full service history each belong in the title because each materially changes the price.
High value. Never hand over keys or documents until funds have fully cleared. Write a dated receipt naming both parties, the chassis number and the price. WishThrift does not process or hold payments, so the transaction is entirely between you and the buyer.
It costs nothing to list
There is no listing fee, no selling fee and no commission, so the C$28,311 a buyer pays is the C$28,311 you keep. You and the buyer settle up and arrange the handover between yourselves; WishThrift does not hold the money or ship the item.

Common questions
Where can I sell a caravan in Canada?
List it free on WishThrift and deal with the buyer direct. There is no selling fee, so the whole amount stays with you. Interac e-Transfer is the norm and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. It is what most buyers will suggest before anything else.
Is there outstanding finance?
Answer directly. Buyers run checks against the chassis number, and undisclosed finance ends a sale immediately and permanently.
What is the biggest issue with used caravans?
Damp, without question. It is expensive to repair and is the first thing any informed buyer checks.
What is floor delamination?
The floor layers separating, felt as soft or spongy patches underfoot. It is a serious and costly structural issue.
