For an Ipswich campervan build, use this guide to compare compact kits around a repeatable packing routine. Decide which items stay in the cupboards and which arrive from home, then check how they move when the bed is extended.
888CamperWorks furniture for self-build conversions. Order online from our Rochester, Kent business. The featured kits are supplied flat packed for assembly and vehicle fitting.
Furniture layouts to compare
Use the current product drawings and pack contents alongside this guide. Compare the sleeping footprint, usable storage and space needed to open doors before choosing your finish.
Compact SWB bed and storage kit
U-shaped seating 1400 × 1700 mm, extending to a 1900 mm-long bed. Check the required 1420 mm interior clearance, bulkhead removal and cab-seat movement on the product page.
Compact LWB bed and storage kit
U-shaped seating, cupboard storage and a 1400 × 2000 mm bed footprint. Allow the full 2000 mm length and at least 1420 mm finished interior width.
Browse all U-shaped conversion kits, or compare separate kitchens and cupboards and overhead storage. Product images are renders; the listings show current options and prices.
Separate permanent camper storage from weekend bags
Give permanent items stable homes
Group utensils, cleaning supplies and other items that remain in the van. Choose accessible compartments for them and check the opening against their containers. Keep occasional bulky equipment separate so loading it does not disturb the everyday arrangement. Remember that contents need suitable restraint during travel, even when they sit behind a cupboard door.
Write a short departure checklist
Identify the bags and food boxes that come from home for each trip. Set them in the van while it is still in seating mode, then make the bed without taking shortcuts. Record where each item moves. If the process repeatedly leaves luggage on the sleeping surface, revise the storage plan before adding another cupboard.
Prepare your Ipswich conversion enquiry
Send the van make, model, year, wheelbase and roof height, the kit you are considering and your finished measurements. Include:
- List of items kept permanently in the van
- Dimensions of removable bags and food boxes
- Where each bag goes when the bed is made
State the receiving postcode and whether any floor, lining or equipment measurements are still provisional. Use the contact form, call 0330 043 2427 or email contact@888VanRacking.co.uk.
Delivery and Medway collection
For delivery to Ipswich, enter your full postcode at checkout and check the service for the selected kit. Provide access details for a home or workshop delivery and leave time to inspect and assemble the furniture before your first trip.
The featured conversion-kit listings offer £80 pallet delivery where that service is available, or free Medway collection by arrangement. Confirm service and price for Highland, island or restricted-access addresses. Rates for other furniture depend on the item and address. Check the shipping policy and your checkout options, or ask us to confirm delivery and lead time.
Before choosing your kit
Does more cupboard capacity always make packing easier?
Access matters as much as volume. Choose openings and positions around the objects you use, and avoid relying on a large compartment that has to be emptied to reach one item.
What work and equipment should I plan separately?
These are furniture kits. Check the chosen listing for assembly hardware and optional catches or fitting packs. Appliances, cushions, mattress and table support are separate on the featured kits. Confirm your vehicle fit and structural mounting arrangements. Use the lounge and bed while parked; they are not travelling passenger seats.
