For those involved in the transport of caravans, holiday homes, park homes or boats. This Group has its own RHA Conditions of Carriage.
RHA Members specialising in the transportation of Park Homes, Caravan Holiday Homes, Caravans and Boats are represented by the business sector group known as the Caravan Hauliers Group. Members of the Group also carry site offices, classroom units and other types of temporarily sited buildings.
