Caravans On The Gibb River Road

by John
(Hughesdale Vic)

Obviously you would not want to take a caravan on the Gibb River Road. However, is there place to leave our van on the eastern end as we make our way across (and then go back and get it)? Is it better to do the southern road first and then do the Gibb River and leave the van on the western end?

Thanks,
John

Hi John!

You are correct. You can't take caravans across the Gibb River Road. So yes, if you bring your caravan and want to do the Gibb River Road as well, then you have to leave it somewhere.

Which road you do first, and whether you leave the van in Broome/Derby or in Kununurra, does not make any difference. Either way it is a huge detour to travel the Gibb River Road without the van and to then go back and get it.

Here are some places that offer a caravan storage service:

Caravan Storage in Broome:
Broome Storage & Removals (Lucas St.) 9192 1354
Keshi Storage & Containers (Haynes St.) 9193 5354
Allied Pickfords also have a local agent in Broome and are apparently familiar with that kind of request.

Caravan Storage in Derby:
Hamlet Grove Caravan Storage (Manning Rd.) 9191 1463
Kimberley Entrance Caravan Park (Rowan St.) 9193 1055

Caravan Storage in Kununurra:
Hidden Valley Tourist Park (Weaber Plains Rd.) 9168 1790
Zebra Rock Gallery (15 km from town on Packsaddle Rd.) 9168 1114
