Even though December–January feels slow, there are real advantages you can highlight:
1. Less Competition
Most sellers wait until spring, so winter listings stand out more. Buyers who are actively searching now tend to be serious. Your featured ad and post will still be live in the spring.
2. Buyers Start Planning Early
People shop during the holidays when they have time off and start planning spring projects. A trailer posted in winter often sells by early spring—at a better price—because the buyer wants it ready for rally season.
3. Motivated Buyers With “New Year” Energy
After the holidays, many people are motivated to start a new hobby, plan travel, or finally buy the vintage trailer they’ve been dreaming about.
4. Tax Refund Season Starts Early
Some early filers begin receiving refunds in late January, which fuels discretionary spending.
A Featured Post gives your trailer a level of visibility that goes far beyond a standard classified listing. Instead of just appearing in the classifieds section, your trailer becomes a full blog-style spotlight on the main Vintage Camper Trailers website — the page our readers visit every day for stories, inspiration, and updates.
Your Featured Post includes a write-up, multiple photos, and direct links to your classified ad, all presented in a way that feels more like an article than an ad. That storytelling format keeps shoppers engaged longer, builds more interest, and helps them connect with your trailer on a personal level.
Each post is categorized under “For Sale”, so it stays easy to find, share, and revisit. And to boost your reach even more, we also share your
Featured Post on the main VCT Facebook page, sending additional traffic straight back to your listing.
The result?
– More eyes on your trailer…
– More time spent engaging with it…
– And a better chance of finding the right buyer faster.
For anyone serious about selling, a Featured Post is one of the most effective tools we offer.
