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.

Unfortunately, at this time we only use one location in Nokia. We do offer a collection/drop off service for extra charge though. Please contact us via email to see how we can help.

For your convenience we include the following: 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, fitted mosquito net, full tank of diesel for heating system (full-to-full policy), unlimited kilometres.

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!

The drop off time is automatically 11.00, but it is possible to order late check-out time until 16.00. - If you know in advance you can add this option to your booking form. A charge of 30€ is applied. - If you wish to add it once your reservation has already started then please contact us via Whatsapp to request a late checkout. The 30€ can then be paid directly or taken from your deposit. If you wish to extend your booking by another night or more then you can contact us via Whatsapp to request an extention. We will then check availability and let you know if it is possible (no other bookings). Payment can be made using your deposit or directly. Any extra nights are charged according to our pricelist.

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.

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

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.

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. 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.

The camper trailer is delivered shortly before the collection start time and is collected from the caravan parking area at ABC Kolmenkulma Nokia. This is the same place for returning.

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. Take pictures of the camper trailer before you leave and when you return. A total of 5 images (both sides, kitchen, front and back). Before leaving, send the photos to the link provided on the reservation form. Our rental policy requires the renter to provide photos before and after renting. The pictures taken must be clear and according to the instructions on the booking email.

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.

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.

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.
