You’ve parked your caravan after a long drive, and are finally ready to make dinner, crack open an icy cold drink and enjoy your first night in the campground. But then you realise...the caravan isn’t level.
The sink isn’t draining properly. The gas fridge isn’t running properly. Lemons are rolling around the benchtop. And you know that when it’s bedtime, you’ll be rolling into the wall!
As any seasoned caravanner will tell you, spending a bit of time upfront with caravan levels will make your stay more comfortable and enjoyable in the long run. Plus, you won’t damage any valuable appliances.
Explore the best Caravan Levelling Ramps on the market throughout this guide and find the best one for your setup.
Caravan Level Types
Whether you're new to caravanning or upgrading your setup, there are levelling options to suit every budget and travel style—from basic manual levellers to smart automatic systems.
Ramp Levellers (Manual Levelling Ramps)
Best for: Budget-conscious travellers and occasional campers
Ramp levellers are the most affordable and common levelling option. These heavy-duty plastic or rubber ramps allow you to drive your caravan wheels onto them to raise one side until it’s level. They’re lightweight, portable, and easy to use with a spirit level or bubble level. Some include anti-slip mats or wheel chocks for extra stability.
The RedFoot Levelling RV Multi Stage Levelling Ramps are designed for caravans or motorhomes with wider tyres to allow for better contact on the ramps in order to reduce sinking on soft ground with its larger footprint. With three multi stage levelling platforms, these ramps will make it easier to level your caravan or motorhome on uneven ground.
If you're looking for a cheap entry level model, we recommend the Hulk 4x4 Plastic Wheel Level Ramps. These ramps are rated to 5,000kg and are ideal for levelling caravans and motorhomes on uneven surfaces. The ribbed platform improves grip and there are three steps available: 40mm, 70mm and 100mm.
Pro Tip: It is easier to drive onto a level ramp than reverse back onto it, so check your ground levels before pulling onto site and, if you can, have your levels in place ready to drive on to.
Chock and Stack Levelling Systems
Best for: Caravanners looking for more stability on uneven ground
Chock and stack systems include interlocking blocks that you can build up to your desired height. Once stacked, you simply drive onto them and chock the wheels in place. These are more versatile than basic ramps and are especially handy on rough or sloped terrain.
For a tandem axle caravan or trailer, check out the Haigh CVL2 ramp and chock kit. Made in Australia, these ramps are specifically designed for tandem axles. The ramp has a red and black section that splits and can be put between the wheels in two stages.
Electric and Hydraulic Caravan Levellers
Best for: Frequent travellers and luxury setups
Electric or hydraulic caravan levelling systems offer the ultimate in convenience. With the push of a button, these systems automatically adjust the height of your caravan or motorhome to level it perfectly. These systems are commonly used on motorhomes but can be installed on some caravans.
The perfect all-in-one solution for levelling and unhitching your caravan is the Black Jack Electric Trailer Jack Bundle. The Black Jack Block will allow extra extension from your Black Jack, giving you that extra reach when required and saving wear and tear overtime. They are strong and durable with a lifetime warranty and can also be used as a step for convenience while on the road.
HOT TIP - Check out the Redfoot Levelling Anti Ant Stabilser Pads for when you are unhitched. Simply place under your stabiliser legs, fill with water and instantly you have a barrier for those pesky ants from entering your van.
Electric Caravan Jacks: A Powerful Addition to Your Levelling Setup
Electric caravan jacks are an increasingly popular upgrade for caravan owners looking to simplify the process of levelling and stabilising their van. These motorised jacks can lift and lower your caravan at the press of a button, making them a convenient alternative to manual corner steadies or hand-cranked stabilisers. Explore our premium range known as the Black Jack Electric Jacks.
While electric jacks are not automatic levelling systems on their own, they make manual levelling much easier and more accurate—especially when used in combination with spirit levels or electronic levelling indicators.
How To Choose Caravan Levels
There are a few things you need to think about when you buy caravan levels - and it all comes down to your trailer/caravan.
-
Do you have a single or tandem axle caravan? Tandem wheels need two levelling ramps on the same side.
-
What is the tyre width? If you have extra wide tyres, look for a caravan level to match.
-
How much does the caravan weigh? Check how many tonnes the caravan levels can hold.
Extra Accessories
Many caravan levelling ramps now include a matching wheel chock to keep your caravan securely in place once level. If a chock isn’t included, it’s a good idea to choose one from the same brand as your leveller—this ensures they interlock properly and stay stable in various positions. For added convenience, look for levelling kits that come with a storage bag, so you can keep your ramps and chocks neatly together and easy to access when setting up camp.
No matter where your travels take you, having a reliable caravan levelling system is essential for a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience. From basic levelling ramps and chocks to high-tech electric jacks and hydraulic systems, there’s a levelling solution to suit every type of traveller and budget. Whether you’re looking for quick weekend getaways or long-term touring, investing in the right levelling gear ensures your appliances function correctly, your van stays stable, and your site setup is a breeze.
