The Hoppin Habitats Blog

Stories, tips and trip notes from the road

First posts landing soon

This is where we'll be putting the yarns — trip reports from around Queensland and beyond, the occasional how-to from inside the workshop, gear we actually use, and answers to the questions that come up most often before a hire.

Nothing published yet. We'd rather take the time to write a few proper ones than fill the page with filler. Once the first posts are up they'll appear here, newest first.

If there's something specific you'd like us to cover — a road trip you're planning, a fitout question, a "is the Hiace big enough for my dog" sort of thing — drop a note via the contact page and we'll add it to the list.

While you're here

A few of the places people usually head from this page:

See the vans

Three Hoppin Habitats campervans available for hire from our Tingalpa base — the Archi ii (auto, sleeps two), the Hitop Hiace (compact, capable) and the Archi 4x4 (anywhere-friendly). Browse the fleet →

How the hire works

The whole process, start to finish — pick a van, get a quote, lock in your dates, and collect from Tingalpa. Full insurance and RACQ roadside included. Read the process →

Custom fitouts

If you've got your own van and want it built out for living and travelling in, that's our other side of the business. See the fitout work →
