RV & Travel Trailer Class Guide

If you’re new to the world of RVs and travel trailers, navigating your way through the multiple classes of vehicles can be a bit intimidating. Use our guide to learn about the important attributes that distinguish each class.

Travel Trailer

A home that follows you almost anywhere. Towable, self-contained units with a kitchen, sleeping space and a bathroom in a compact package.

5th Wheel

Luxury accommodations on wheels. They hitch into the bed of a pickup and give you spacious, multi-level living space, slide-outs and premium finishes.

Toy Hauler

For those who can’t travel without their toys. A rear garage takes the motorcycles and ATVs, and converts into extra living space once they are out.

Class A

Travel without compromise. Bus-like vehicles with residential-style interiors, full kitchens, multiple bedrooms and expansive slide-outs.

Class B

The camper van — a simpler way to travel in comfort. Compact, with a kitchenette and a bathroom, in something that still fits a standard parking spot.

Class C

Recognisable by the over-cab sleeping area. A motorized option that has it all for less, at a size that suits a family.

Park Model

A second home untethered to a single address. Built for long-term seasonal stays, with residential interiors — not for regular travel.

Hybrid Model

Enjoy the experience of a tent with the amenities of a trailer: hard sides, with pop-out tent sections for extra sleeping space.

Truck Camper

Just load it up and go. Anything from lightweight to fully equipped, sitting in a pickup bed — spontaneous trips and off-grid exploring.

Tent Trailer

Also called a pop-up or folding camper. A compact and lightweight alternative that collapses for towing and gives you the basics when it is up.

Cargo Trailer

A multi-purpose option for hauling goods, and adaptable into a workshop, an office or a living space.

Horse Trailer

Transport your hoofed companions comfortably and safely — sturdy construction, ramps and interior dividers.

Dump Trailer

Designed to get the job done, with a hydraulic lift for unloading heavy material.

Utility Trailer

A multi-purpose option for work and play — open or enclosed, for furniture, equipment or recreational vehicles.
