Winter driving essentials you’ll want in your car year round

The weather can be so unpredictable in December.  Whether you’re driving in your local area or going further afield your travel essentials checklist should prepare you for rain, snow and ice.  Our post Driving in a Winter Wonderland details how to tackle a journey in those weather conditions and gives a list of items to have with you.  In addition to that list, there are 4 car accessories you may want to install. They are often considered to be winter driving essentials, making it easier to protect your car’s interior and your passengers.  If you want to make travel more comfortable for everyone on board, read on.

Travall Guard – vehicle-specific dog guard and luggage barrier

During December we often have to cram more into our boots than at other times of the year.  Groceries ready for Christmas feasting. A “sleigh” full of gifts for friends and family. Luggage to get away from it all. No matter what you are transporting, you’ll want (and need) to maximise every square inch available. Adding a Travall Guard allows you to stack your boot to the roof in the knowledge that if you have to brake hard on the journey your gear will stay in the boot and your passengers have that extra protection from loose objects.

Travall Divider – vehicle-specific boot divider

With a Travall Divider installed you’ll know that your dog has his own special area and is protected from your other gear that could otherwise invade his space when you turn a corner. Adding a vehicle-specific boot divider results in a more  comfortable ride for your pup – happy dog and happy driver.
