The rear garage of your Bürstner vehicle is a useful storage space for safely stowing luggage and equipment and increasing the flexibility of your journey. To ensure that you are safe and efficient when travelling, please observe the following instructions:
Load capacity of the Bürstner rear garage: New possibilities with 2026 Signature models
Bürstner vehicles offer you a robust storage solution with a maximum load capacity of 150 kg for standard models. Bürstner is launching new Signature models for 2026, which even allow you to carry an increased load capacity of up to 250 kg. Please ensure that you do not exceed the maximum rear axle load of your vehicle. You can find this value in the vehicle registration document under item 13 or in the operating instructions.
Loading and load securing
- Optimal load distribution: Splitter the load evenly. Heavy objects should be placed in the centre and close to the axles. An unbalanced load can lead to instability when driving. If you are unsure, use public weighbridges, e.g. at car parks or recycling centres.
- Sufficient load securing: Use tensioning straps, lashing straps with a ratchet mechanism or other tested securing systems. All objects must be firmly secured - slipping can cause damage to the vehicle and the load.
Transport of vehicles and equipment
The rear garage offers you the option of safely transporting various materials, such as e-bikes, scooters or tools. There are some important safety precautions to ensure that this happens safely and without incident:
- E-Bikes: The battery should be removed before travelling and stowed separately to prevent damage caused by shocks or during loading and unloading.
- Vehicles with flammable materials (e.g. B. Scooter): It is important to empty the tank completely to avoid the risk of leaks or ignition caused by movement and temperature changes.
- Gas bottles or fuels may not be transported in the rear garage. Instead, they should be stored in specially designated areas of the motorhome that provide safe ventilation and protection. Ideally, these are located in external compartments or separate gas compartments with adequate ventilation. Make sure they are well secured and check the valves and connections regularly for leaks to ensure a safe journey.
Delicate objects
- Electronics, food or sensitive equipment should be stored in waterproof, shockproof boxes.
- The rear garage is not ventilated - pay attention to the temperature resistance of the stored items.
Travel type-specific tips
- Winterreisen: Make sure your ski equipment is well upholstered and secured, and pay attention to moisture protection.
- Sommerreisen: Provide water sports equipment (e.g. SUPs, surfboards) with edge protection and lash securely.
⚠️ Safety information
Your safety and that of your fellow travellers is our top priority. Before every journey, check that the load is safely and securely stowed in the rear garage. Never exceed the maximum rear axle load of the vehicle, as this can lead to driving instability. The rear garage is designed exclusively for transporting objects and is not suitable as a recreation area while driving.
💡 Our tip
In order to keep your Bürstner's rear garage in top condition, regular maintenance and checks are crucial. Clean the garage regularly to avoid dirt and potential damage. Check the seals carefully for moisture ingress. If the garage is not used for a longer period of time, you should store it in a dry place, if necessary with a dehumidifier to prevent mould growth.
