Move On Australia is a small team of builders, welders and full-time van-lifers who got tired of choosing between overpriced factory conversions and DIY builds that fell apart on the first corrugated road.
Move On Australia started two years ago with a single Transit van, a backyard shed, and a founder who couldn't find a builder who'd take the time to understand how they actually wanted to live on the road. So the first build became a proof of concept — and word travelled fast through the van-life community.
Today we run a dedicated workshop with a small crew of tradespeople covering carpentry, 12V electrical, plumbing and gas fitting, all under one roof. We've deliberately stayed small: every build still gets the same hands-on attention as that very first van, and the same founder who cut the first sheet of ply is still involved in every design consultation.
We're not interested in being the biggest campervan builder in Australia. We're interested in being the one you'd actually recommend to a friend.
Our founder builds a full-time-living conversion for their own travels — and starts getting asked to build for others.
Word spreads through van-life Facebook groups and meetups. The first Nomad and Weekend builds roll out.
We move into a dedicated workshop and bring on qualified electricians and plumbers to build entirely in-house.
A small, deliberately-not-huge team building custom vans for adventurers, families and full-time travellers across Australia.
The same principles apply to every single build, no matter the size or budget.
No hard sell, no upselling you into features you don't need. We tell you what something will actually cost and how long it'll actually take.
Nothing gets built until you've signed off on the 3D layout and spec sheet. No surprises when you walk in for handover.
Our electrical and plumbing work is done by qualified tradespeople — not YouTube-taught guesswork. It's your home; it should be done properly.
You'll never wonder what's happening with your build. We send progress photos through a private build journal every week.
3-year structural warranty, 1-year electrical & plumbing warranty, and an annual service plan if you want ongoing peace of mind.
Wherever you are in Australia, we'll deliver your finished van personally and walk you through every system before we hand over the keys.
We're always happy to show you around, talk through a build, or just have a chat about what's possible with professional campervan conversions.
