Including the above, we stock many different types and sizes of tarps for sale! You can use our tarp finder to find the perfect tarp for your application or check out our extensive range of tarps and covers here.
Note – We recommend our stronger grade tarps with stronger eyelets where the tarp is to be used as a suspended roof shelter or where strong pressure will be applied to the corners and side eyelets. The tarpaulin should be roped over to avoid the “parachute effect”. The performance of each tarp varies in accordance with the use and type of install.

Product arrived in good order and as described therefore quality is high rating.
Unfortunately it didn’t serve the purpose I intended it for, i.e to cover a retro 10ft 1972 caravan with curved roof, not a pop top. Intention was to cover front and sides to protect from the elements but due to the curvature of the van and the tarp oblong shape there was to much overhang around the van to securely tie down to prevent wind damage to the tarp over time. Not the manufacturing or suppliers fault, I endeavored to try another product from the cloth covers which I found start to disintegrate after 1 – 2 summers.
Hung up the tarp and filled with 5 litres of water that sat in the seam .. left it all day and not one drop … fantastic it would be a swine if you could make proper caravan covers with door flaps
The tarp arrived in good order , it is light but strong and at this stage is handling the sharp points on my van, has been on for 12 days in mostly 15 to 30 kmh wind makes a bit of noise but dont they all, the solar panel is covered but after 12 days in QLd sun the battery is fully charged so maybe enough light is getting in – that will be a bonus, so far so good
The tarp was delivered in good condition and is the correct size. I have only seen woven tarps before never seen this type of material to me its like a thick plastic film. I have used mini ratchet straps to secure it in place and so far these seem to do a good job in keeping it firmly in place when it is windy. The only thing that is missing is a removable panel (zipper or Velcro) where the door is so I can access the inside of the caravan without undoing several of the tie downs. It has a 3 year warranty and if it lasts the duration I’ll be happy. I would recommend this product.

Arrived quickly and was easy to install. Seems to be quite hardy.
