Drive away awnings are one of the most popular ways to add extra space to a campervan or motorhome. They connect directly to your vehicle but can be left standing when you drive away, giving you the flexibility to return to a ready-pitched space. At WM Camping, we stock a massive range of inflatable and poled drive away awnings from trusted names such as Vango, Outdoor Revolution and Outwell.
Whether you’re looking for a small drive away awning for weekends or a larger dirve away awning for family touring, we have awnings to suit a wide range of vehicles. You can shop our drive away awnings by type, brand or attachment height to find the best match for your campervan or motorhome.
Drive Away Awnings for Campervans
Our Campervan Drive Away Awnings are designed for attachment heights of around 180–210cm, making them perfect for models such as VW Transporters and other low-roof conversions. They connect easily using drive-away kits, kador strips, or throw-over straps, and are ideal for creating extra sleeping areas, a dining area, or sheltered storage space while still allowing you to drive away for day trips.
Drive Away Awnings for Mid-Height Vehicles
If you own a high-top van or a panel van conversion with an attachment height between 210–240cm, you’ll find Mid Height Drive Away Awnings designed to match. This includes taller conversions of models like the Ford Transit Custom, Renault Trafic, and Mercedes Vito, where extra headroom inside the awning makes all the difference. Choosing a mid-height fit ensures a secure, weatherproof seal and straightforward pitching.
Drive Away Awnings for Motorhomes
For motorhomes with higher attachment points, we stock Motorhome Drive Away Awnings to fit heights from 255-295cm. These awnings have taller connection tunnels to match the size of your vehicle and give you a spacious and weather-protected living area. They’re particularly useful for longer stays, allowing you to unhook your motorhome and explore without taking everything down each time you leave the site. You can also see our Tall Height Drive Away Awnings for options in this category.
Inflatable vs Poled Drive Away Awnings
Inflatable Drive Away Awnings use air-filled beams for quick pitching and stability in windy weather, making them a great choice if you frequently set up and take down your awning. Poled Drive Away Awnings use fibreglass or steel poles, often packing smaller and coming in at a lower cost, while still providing excellent space and durability.
