Why Purchase from Southern Cross Trailers?

 

We are a small family owned and operated business that is very customer focused. We have over 18 years trailer manufacturing experience.

We have packaged a camper tent with our trailers to create a long lasting superior camper trailer package affordable for families on a budget.

The latest model has been upgraded AGAIN  to include the following:

  • Double proofing through entire camper
  • Rear door- canvas over mesh
  • Tailgate skirt sectioned to allow tailgate to open
  • Springs on all guideropes
  • Upgraded PVC travel cover

We have a young family and we love camping. Through our experiences we have come to the realisation that we would prefer a little more comfort but at an affordable price. Our research shows that there a lot of families in a similar siutuation. Quality at an affordable price is essential  so we have kept this in mind with our design and pricing structure. 

We don't offer any ridiculous recommended retail prices, our campers are built to last and are in the same quality category as the $10000+ campers, but in order to keep costs low, we have left out some of the luxury options

Our campers come with a full canvas annex AND midge mesh annex so you can choose between the two depending on the weather conditions. - something our competitors charge extra for.

Our campers come with a tropcial storm cover made to suit our camper tent.It es teh main section and annex. Utilising this cover will prolong the life camper but adding protection from Bird droppings, sap etc. Also providing full protections the conditions if wet weather is predicted. Having the strom cover over the camperill act as an insulator and can decrease the tempurture by up to five degrees.

We have completed extensive research and believe we have developed a package that will meet the demands of the Australian environment.  We have  worked with many of the camper tents currently on the market and feel that this tent  is superior quality

The UV protection our camper provides will protect your family from the sometimes extreme heat of summer. Yet in winter can be enclosed to retain heat and shelter from wind and rain. 

Why limit yourselves to only camping a few months of the year?  With our camper, you can travel all year round with confidence.

Also, we have the capacity to tailor a package to your individual needs. Our years of experience enable us to provide expert advice and guidance.

The camper currently on offer is our basic package but due to our industry experience the options are endless.

We would recommend that you research camper tents before purchasing, as there are many sold that will not stand the harsh elements and you may not achieve longevity out of your Camper.

When making a large purchase such as this it is essential you have the confidence that you are dealing with experienced professionals. As we manufacture as well as retail these products you can be assured we aim to satisfy all customers until the desired result is attained.

We do also stock other campers if you are seeking a more economic option but unfortunately we are not able to offer any warranty with the tents only the trailers.

We pride ourselves with manufacturing high quality products that will meet our customers needs.We back all of our products with a workmanship warranty.

We offer your first trailer service free of charge and offer years of experience advice and guidance.

                 

CAMPER FEATURES
  • Roof And Walls 
    Top quality 13 oz (370g/sqm) Rip stop Close weave weather resistant canvas. 

  • Ripstop Canvas Roof and Walls
    The canvas incorporates interwoven “rip stop” reinforcement threads in a “crosshatch pattern”, so the material resists ripping or tearing. Other rip stop products such as a nylon rip stop are used in the manufacture of hot air balloons, yacht sails and spinnakers, parachutes, and even Nomex protective clothing for riot police. Authentic rip stop canvas was traditionally always too expensive to incorporate into camper trailer tents and was primarily used in military tents throughout the world. Advances in technology and increased manufacture abilities, has now led to a more competitively priced product.
  • Size 
    17ft x 15ft, 25sq meters of space.

    Sleeps 8 persons or even more if utilising the annex.

  • Mattress
    King Size Bed
    100mm (extra thick) high density foam for a good nights sleep, with zip off cover for washing.

  • Bed Base Board 
    18mm 12 layered  ply board with two inspection hatches. 
  • Colour
    Dark Green walls with beige roof.
    Dark green walls do not show grass stains or dirt marks. Whereas light coloured walls look very dirty very quickly, particularly if small children around. Beige roof reflects the heat, but allows light in.

  • Windows 
    Strengthened M3 Midge mesh, (not mosquito mesh) with clear PVC to expose windows in main tent

    Utilising midge mesh keeps out all smaller insects such as sand flies and midges.

    Window coverings can be rolled up half way and secured with toggle tie backs over clear PVC windows to allow in light in adverse conditions.

    Window Covers (canvas) can all be rolled up and held in place with Toggles, and placed under sewn in valance.

    The valance also deflects rain away from windows.

  • Doors 
    All zipped canvas, (2 zips per door), with a zipped midge mesh door behind them.

    Doors can be zipped from bottom to top which can stop small children from going inside or outside. 
    Canvas door can be left open without concern for insects getting into the tent, and allows airflow. 
    A second door is in the lastest model that is opposite the front door.

  • Ladder
    Aluminium strengthened
    high quality ladder which slot under bed and secured by canvas straps. The ladder does not get in the way whilst sleeping, and are much safer than heavy steel if they happen to fall to the floor, particularly if small children are around.
    Supplied with zipped canvas bag. 

  • Tent Poles (exterior)  
    Heavy Duty 25mm hot galvanised

    Poles are hot galvanised instead of the standard cold galvanised for additional strength and protection from the elements and to avoid rusting.
    All supplied in a canvas bag.

  • Tent Poles (internal)
    Heavy duty 25mm hot galvanised spring loaded pivot poles, lock tight adjustable.

    As above plus spring loaded pivot poles to assist in quick set up of tent .
    Spreader Bars are Heavy Duty 25mm hot galvanised
    Spreader bars used for additional support and tensioning of annex roof and tent particularly in very heavy storms or winds if unavoidable.

  • Guy Ropes, Pegs and Rain Caps
    A total of 56 pegs, 26 guy ropes, and 6 rain caps (slide over tops of front exterior annex poles to stop rain coming through eyelets, and also protects canvas when guy ropes attached). Many extra supplied in case of loss or damage.

  • Annex Floor
    Removable strong PVC with Velcro sewn in to attach to annex walls and tent.
    Easily cleaned, and very durable. Velcro can be attached to tent and annex walls to fully enclose the tent, (keeps out insects etc).

  • Annex Walls (canvas)
    Three piece (zipped), including windows and entrance door, and attaches to annex roof and floor with very strong Velcro.

    You can have either 1, 2, or 3,sections (walls) in place. Can act as wind break, sunshield , or privacy screen with just one side wall in place, but allows plenty of air flow if hot.

    All canvas is 13oz rip stop.

  • Annex Walls (midge mesh) 
    Complete with 3 zips, Velcro to attach to annex roof and annex floor. 

    Perfect when increased airflow is needed such as hot summer days or when flying little biters around. 
    Sells separately for $499 but is included in our package

  • PVC Vents 
    Uniquely designed double vents
    below main bed area with zipped midge mesh behind them.When unzipped allows airflow into main tent, essential in hot weather. Both PVC and midge mesh can be unzipped to also allow access to water containers, Jerry Cans, etc, on the tent side of the trailer.
  • Unique exterior Travel Cover .
    500g/sqm  heavy duty PVC, including zips and Velcro.  

    The bottom 15cms can be unzipped and run through aluminium sail track/annex rail (screwed to the bed base board) then zipped back up to form a total dust and water seal giving the tent total protection from the elements.
    The cover is also manufactured oversize to allow for the safe and sealed storage of clothes, sleeping bags etc underneath it. All too often tents are ruined by water and dust getting up underneath the cover, and the tent is left to rot in storage till the next camping adventure. We believe this is one of the most crucial points to ensure longevity of a camper tent.
    The cover also includes 6 tie down straps, with sewn in strengthened buckles.

  • Additional Features/Benefits

    • Additional Canvas sewn into stress joints.
    • Additional strength and waterproofing ability.
