RV Rental Company - What you need to know

• Understand the RV rental company rules and requirements before you sign a contract.
• Don't take chances, rent only from reputable RV rental dealers.
• Obtain a copy of the RV rental requirements and policies about cancellations, security deposits, and additional fees that may be included.
• Find out about fuel economy. RVs are great for getting away, and you won't pay for a motel/hotel room, but fuel costs can be substantial...don't be surprised. Don't forget RV parks are not free!
• Verify the RV rental contract includes RV rental fees, mileage rates and miscellaneous fees including pre trip preparations, cleaning, reservations , housekeeping kits and generators.
• Determine the RV rental dealers policy about reimbursement for mechanical breakdowns and personal expenses during a breakdown.

Where can I travel with my RV rental?

Depending on your destination, you reserve an RV rental in your area and drive to your vacation spot, or fly to your destination and rent from an RV dealer there. This is very convenient for those wishing to visit distant areas with limited time. Many RV rental dealers in popular locations offer fly and drive packages. RV rental companies require proof of age, and minimum age requirements can vary by state. Make sure you don't get to where you are renting only to find that you're not old enough to rent an RV. Of course a valid driver's license and a major credit card are required.

I've Never Done This Before!

Not to worry. Every RV camper has to start somewhere! Most RV rental companies give test drives and information that help inexperienced operators feel comfortable behind the wheel. RVs include automatic transmissions, power steering and power brakes. The systems will be explained completely to you, so you should feel like a veteran RVer when you drive off the lot.

What supplies do I need to bring for my RV rental?

Bring your own bedding (check with the rental company for bed sizes) and towels. You can use our RV Checklist Section to help you determine what you may want to bring on your trip. It's a lot less expensive to take what you want than to buy it on the road. We've seen several folks over the years that forgot to bring such basics as soap and toothbrushes. Most RV rental companies offer housekeeping packages which include pots, pans, dishes, and silverware.

What kind of insurance do I need for my RV rental?

If you already have an auto insurance policy, your RV rental may be covered, but check with your insurance agent to see if you need to add an RV rental policy to your auto insurance policy. You may need to purchase additional RV insurance coverage from the RV rental company.
