How To Stay Connected And Work Remotely From A Van

If you are someone who loves being immersed in the outdoors, free and simply taking in your surroundings, then maybe remote van working might suit you perfectly! Keep reading to find out more.

So, What Is Van Life Remote Work?

Van life remote work is the idea of full-time living in your van and working remotely. For this, you will need:

  • Solar panels
  • Satellite Internet connection
  • Mobile office set up
  • House batteries
  • Toilet
  • Sink

These are just a few things to consider adding to your van conversion, so that you have inappropriate living and working space. It’s not as glamorous as may think, and it is a real lifestyle that people adopt.

While, unfortunately, it is not a holiday, van life remote work can be the perfect solution for individuals who are digital nomads or are looking to travel and work remotely with ease.

Getting Yourself Remote On The Roads

Getting started with this process requires some planning before you embark on your life of travel and freedom. This brief checklist will help you to iron out some of the things you might need to organise before you get on the roads.

  • Choosing a van – This is vital to make sure you have enough space and comfort for all your living and working facilities.
  • Buying or Renting? – You also want to narrow down whether you are going to buy a van or rent one for a certain amount of time.
  • Test it out – Maybe test out your new van life, before you make any split decisions about your house.
  • Do your research – It’s important that you look into places that you can park and sleep, some sites are free, others are private property. You will need to work out areas where you will be safe.
  • Van insurance – This can be difficult without a permanent residence of the van, but discuss your options with an insurance company and explain your situation.

Work-Life Balance?

When it comes to a work life balance, there are probably a few things to iron out. Having a proper schedule that you can stick to is a good way to maintain a work-life balance. As well as staying healthy while you are on this journey.

"Found these guys online and was a little bit wary to buy a new van from someone I hadn't heard of. From the off, the first phone call was professional and gave me all the information that I needed, Theo was great, helpful and I proceeded to order my new van, Paige sorted the paperwork quickly and efficiently and within 10 days I had my new van delivered! The price was very competitive and all parts of the transaction were easy and hassle free, wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys, Thank you so much for a really good experience."

"I was looking for a good deal on a van online and then came across Van away, at first I was a bit sceptical but later went ahead and bought a Peugeot boxer on an unbeatable price online. The sell team were fantastic all the way and very helpful to say the least. I will highly recommend Van away to anybody that's looking for a van of any kind. Thanks Van Away for your first class service and I will be looking forward to a future deal."

"Just purchased a 2nd van through Vanaways to add to our company fleet. Steve Catley was helpful, communicative and informative all the way through the process. We would definitely use Vanaways again, and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Paige was outstanding in her responsiveness to what presented as a serious problem for our company. The finance company used by her company caused unnecessary and significant delays in the delivery of our van - the pain of which was mitigated somewhat by Paige's proactive communication, informative and realistic communication and very professional demeanour. I'd recommend her and she meant our view of Vanaways was overall positive."
