Please watch this short video clip that shows the correct procedure. Coming soon.

All of our camper trailers are inspected after each use, but the following should always be checked before departure:

• The towbar of the camper trailer is firmly and securely attached to the towbar of the car.

• Connect the 13-pin outlet to the car and check that all lights, including turn signals, are working.

• Check that the cam wheel is up before driving and lift and tighten the wheel properly.

• Secure the cables carefully so that they do not rub or pull on the ground while driving.

• Check that the fuel tank in the heating system has a full tank of diesel (this can be easily found on the front of the camper trailers, marked with a sticker).

• Make sure the doors are locked while driving.

No need. Since we handle the payment/deposit and ID/driver's license check online, you can come and pick up your rented equipment and camping trailer as self-service. Detailed and easy instructions will be sent to you by email when booking.

If you want to meet on site, go over the camping trailer and its features together, or need help attaching the trailer to the towbar, please contact us and we can arrange this.

When returning, follow the return instructions sent to you via email. But the process is simple:

• Return the Mink to the same spot you collected from.

• Pull the handbrake up, Unhook the camper trailer

• Make sure the camper trailer/equipment is clean as you found it. Take your rubbish with you.

• Lock doors & coupling lock. Return keys to the box.

• Make sure the fuel tank is filled up with DIESEL (for Webasto).

Everything is ready to go so you so you can enjoy your trip! We include the following: Sheets for 2 pillows, 2 duvets, 1 blanket, cooking utensils, plates & cutlery for 2, gas stove (gas can is available to buy from us too on checkout page), pans for gas stove, DEFA cable to top up the battery if needed, full tank of diesel for heating system (full-to-full policy), unlimited kilometres.

Yes, the bed is ready made for you upon arrival. If you wish to bring your own bedding (Pillows, duvets and sheets) then please choose the option on the checkout screen.

We will clean and wash the camper inside and out after you return. That is why it is important you return the camper on time so we have the necessary time to get it ready for the next customer.

It is the renters responsibility to still return all kitchen accessories clean and washed (kitchen plates, cups, utensils etc). Also all your rubbish needs to be taken with you.

Please note any cleaning which requires excessive work/time, including the mentioned above, may be charged extra.

Cleanliness is very important to us and our customers. Once returning the Mink Campers are thoroughly inspected for signs of cleanliness, and also damage.

Our cleaning procedures are as follows:

1, Windows, doors and skylight cleaned with glass cleaner.

2, Doors and handles cleaned with disinfectant.

3, The headrest cleaned and disinfected.

4, Shoe boxes thoroughly cleaned inside and out.

5, Kitchen storage boxes cleaned completely.

6, Kitchen work surfaces cleaned and disinfected.

7, Mattress is hovered.

8, Ozoneator is placed inside the Mink for disinfection.

9, Outside of Mink is washed when necessary.

Absolutely not. A charge of 200€ will be made if there any signs of smoking in the camper trailer.​

Generally not. But it depends on the festival and surroundings. Please contact us with details of the festival so we can decide if it is suitable.

Due to the lightweight of the Mink we have not ever encountered a problem of getting one stuck. But, if you do get stuck in mud, sand or snow then the camper trailer should be light enough to pull out with a bit of maneuvering. If after many tries then it can sometimes be worth detaching the hook and trying manually. If all else fails then further assistance with roadside recovery may be needed. In situations where roadside assistance is needed please contact us to help assist on how to proceed.

To turn on the Webasto heating all you need to do is turn the heating dial round to the desired temperature. That's it. There is a built in thermostat which will shut the heating down and come back on when it reaches the set temperature.

Mink- Webasto

The heating system takes air from the outside, heats it up and blows it into the main cabin. The air flows both over and under the bed. That reduces the risk of moisture in the cabin and keeps you warm and cosy all night long. Mink Campers use diesel fuel to heat. There will be a full tank of diesel in the heating fuel tank when collecting and it needs to be returned full of diesel.

Due to a lot of requests we have now a Mink which is dog-friendly.

This allows you to take a dog or two (max. 25kg), inside the Mink with you.

Please note you need to select this option to your booking form. A 35€ charge is applied for the extra cleaning and sanitation after your use.

A cleaning charge will be applied if signs of animals inside the camper trailers is found and you have not selected this option when booking.

By taking your dog(s) with you in the Mink you are fully responsible for any damage, including scratches, stains, other related damage that may occur.

Please never leave your pet unattended inside the Mink!

It is possible to return the camper trailer earlier than the agreed date. Please note refunds are not given for any remaining days on the booking.

The drop off time is automatically 11.00, but it is possible to extend the drop off time later or even extra days.

- If you wish to add it once your reservation has already started then follow the link sent to you at the start of your reservation. If it is possible (no other bookings immidiatly after then you can book directly).

Please let us know as soon as possible if you think you will be late and what time you expect to arrive. Charges for late delivery are found on our rental policy.

Only EU and EEA countries are allowed. You need to select this option on the booking form for us to give permission (+15€). Please note that we do not give permission to enter Russia.

Unfortunately, at this time we only use one location in Ylöjärvi.

We do offer a collection/drop off service for extra charge though. Please see our rental price list to see the cost for this.

There are many great places to explore with a Mink. The lightweight and compact size, compared to traditional caravans, means there are many more possibilities. See our page ‘Explore’ on some good tips of places to go on your next adventure.

The heating system uses Approx. 0.20l to 0.60l per hour, so is very economical. But depends a lot on the outside temperature.

The fuel tank holds 12l, so a full tank should last approx. 4 days in the winter, or over 1 week in the spring/summer.

You can find the Mink rental guide below.

The mosquito nets are placed underneath the side doors of the Mink. They are in a wall mounted pouch so you can quickly pull up the mosquito net and cover the whole door from the inside.

Please note they are only available in the Mink S (Yellow).

See pictures below:

The battery is fully charged when you collect the Mink. While renting it is rare that you would need to do anything with charging the battery, as it does not consume much energy.

However there are 3 ways to charge the battery:

1. Plug in the Mink with the green DEFA cable that came with it. The socket for the cable is on the non-driver side of the cargo platform - close to the front. The cable should be connected to regular 230v.

2. Through the 13 pin plug while the Mink is connected to the car. Be aware the you'll need to have a 13 pin plug on the car and the car has to be set up to charge a battery in a trailer.

3. Through the solar panel that is located on the roof of the Mink.

The Mink has 2x 230v sockets (1 in the kitchen, 1 in the main cabin), 1x 12v socket (in the kitchen) and 4x usb plugs in the main cabin. If you want to use the 230v sockets you need to plug in the Mink using the DEFA cable.

If we have the Mink Camper in stock then you can drive away with it on the day. Any orders which are made to order then the estimated delivery time varies between 4-8 weeks.

Once your Mink arrives in Finland we take care of the registration & inspection. Then we get plates fitted to it ready for road use.

Currently we do not have a show room. Our business runs mostly virtual, but we do have a storage warehouse to keep our Mink Campers. In the future we aim to have a physical showroom open regular hours.

Though Mink Campers are an Icelandic company, manufacturing takes place in Latvia.

The manufacturing facility has expert craftsman and engineers using the best machines, tools and knowledge, which results in building one of the best camper trailers in Europe.

Below you can see some images of the Mink production facility:

Yes, you can. Mink Campers are designed to be outdoors. Of course if you have a warm garage and there is room then it would be great to keep the Mink inside over the winter so you can keep an eye on things and you don't have to keep clearing snow of it.

But if not then outside is fine.

The owners manual can be found right here (English).

On occasion we may buy back your Mink Camper if you later change your mind or your circumstances change. Please contact us with the details and will make an offer!

Once purchasing a Mink Camper we don't end our journey there. We are available throughout the ownership of your Mink to help along the way with any features, technical aspects or upgrade you may be interested in.
