The PROCESS
-
We care about the details. Every van is custom based on your wish list for features, layout, aesthetic design, based on your lifestyle. Once you contact us, we will set up an initial Zoom call or in person meeting at Vanna. This allows us to gather the information we need to get started on providing a ballpark estimate for your van conversion. This is a 30-90 minute consultation. If you want to move forward with getting a detailed estimate and to scale 3D rendering, we charge $250 as pricing out a custom camper van is no small feat and requires work and time to capture all the details. We offer full customization to the interior and exterior of the van.
-
Our next Zoom call or meeting will be 1-2 hours to go through your build, pricing, components, layout, water, electric, and any specific features for your lifestyle. Here we provide you with the price of your van conversion. Design takes 4-12 weeks through a series of conversations and revisions as we dial in your design exactly how you want it.
-
Before the start of your build we will meet with you to have the final design meeting. In this meeting we will decide the colors and finishes in your van, finalize the layout and cabinetry, and add or remove components that you’ve dreamed up since our last chat. After this meeting we will be able to provide you with a floor plan layout of your build. We will then finalize the estimate and invoice for parts and materials requiring 100% of the total remaining project cost to begin ordering key components and materials.
-
We require a $2,000 deposit to hold your spot in the line of van conversions and in our schedule. This deposit will be applied to the balance of your build.
-
We work around high lead times due to supply chain shock and covid delays. Once we have a final design, the project transitions into the preparation and ordering stage in which we produce the vehicles user manual, production book, and order high lead time items.
-
Van’s are built in batches and typical build time is 2-4 months. We maintain open communication throughout your build with updates and photos. As we get closer to completion of your project we will work with you to schedule your van pickup.
-
Your van is done! Today’s the day. Upon pickup we will have a thorough walk through and orientation of your van (lasting around 2 hours). Here we can show you all the components and functions of your van. Our goal is to send you off prepared and educated, along with a custom user manual for your custom camper van.
-
We are here along the way! Sometimes people may want to add features or components to their van. In the occasion something breaks or goes wrong, we provide a three year warranty on all of our craftsmanship and installation, and components are backed by manufacturer warranty.

A Vanna Van runs between $160,000 - $235,000 on average. The price is made up of two parts, the van chassis cost (Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter), and then our work for the conversion portion.
A new Ford Transit High Roof Cargo ranges between $60,000, and $67,000, and a new Mercedes Sprinter High Roof Cargo ranges between $70,000 - $79,000.

The price for the conversion of the van on average ranges between $110,000 - $160,000, however we have entry level models that start lower that require to be plugged into shore power to run the A/C. -
Our backlog before we can start on a new van is currently 4-8 weeks. Once the van is in production, our team needs 10-16 weeks to complete it. We convert 10 vans at a time, so vans are done in batches and timeline depends on what other projects are going on as well as what features are on your camper van.
