How to convert your van into a camper in just 5 minutes…
Sometimes the dream of vanlife has to meet the reality of everyday driving. You want the freedom of the open road, but during the week, your van still has a 9-5. Or maybe you’d love a camper but don’t have the time or space for a months-long conversion. Traditional camper builds can take months of hard work, and also require permanent modification that really limit how you use your van day to day.
Instead, we’ve created the BaseCamp camping module with the weekend warrior lifestyle in mind. Now you don’t need months of work or a workshop full of tools to enjoy vanlife. Our BaseCamp camping module is designed to slide into your small van in just 5 minutes, allowing you to hit the road in no time. It’s designed for people who want the freedom of vanlife without giving up flexibility.
And getting out on the road is easy with the BaseCamp camping module.
The camping module is designed to simply slide in and fit snugly into a variety of vans. Coming in two varieties, the Trail model is designed for compact vans like the Mitsubishi Delica L400, the D5 the Toyota Hiace and many others. The Ridge model is designed for taller models such as the High Roof Delica and the High Roof Hiace.
💡 Check measurements with us before ordering, to make sure it’s the perfect fit for your van. Our two models fit a wide variety of small vans.
Once the module is in place you’ll have a sturdy modular setup that includes drawers, storage space and a built in cooking area. When night falls, simply expand the sleeping platform. It unfolds in seconds, transforming the van into a cozy sleeping space for two. In the morning, simply fold it back to regain access to the third seat for everyday driving. The BaseCamp camping module accommodates a Coleman dual burner stove making meal prep on the go easy and reliable. Add a mattress, sleeping bag and a few supplies and you’re ready for a weekend escape!
It’s not just easy to use, it’s built to last. The modules are made from high quality baltic birch plywood with a durable hex finish, and built right here in Canada in our Pemberton workshop. They’re tough and sturdy, built to handle rough roads and real adventures.
Coming flat packed for shipping or available for pickup fully assembled at our Pemberton workshop our BaseCamp camping modules make vanlife accessible, comfortable and practical for everyone, from weekend warriors to full-time travelers.
