camper and camper rentals - rent a camper guide to choosing your rental motorhome affordably

Camper Rentals

Renting a camper can often be a great way to experience a fantastic and adventurous vacation without making a huge financial commitment. Often renting an camper can prevent purchasing an expensive motorhome that you THINK will make all your dreams come true (like Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite said), but might not. I've outlined the advantages and disadvantages of renting an camper and compared it to buying one.

So, try the camper rental route first. If you are considering buying a particular camper then by all means rent it first and try it out for THREE days! NO less. You will get a real feel for the camper that way. If you are simply looking for information on how to get a good deal on camper rent, how to locate a dealer, and what to expect in terms of cost, paperwork, etc. then the following information will help you.

Most camper rent places rent Class A's, Class C's and Class B's but not travel trailers or fifth wheels. Many places will not rent for less than 4 days with a Motorhome Rental being typically a four to fourteen night rental period. Most companies give you the first 100 miles a day for free and charge about .32 to .42 a mile thereafter depending on current depreciation rates. Nearly all U.S. camper rent companies require at least a $1000 reservation deposit or half the rental is charged to your credit card at the time of confirmation. This is later applied toward your rental charges. When you pick up your Camper there is also usually a security deposit charged and held during the time of your rental. Terms, rates and conditions of deposits vary depending on make, model, year, condition, and location of camper unit.

Extra's on your contract may include hospitality kits, kitchen kits, emergency road kits, or extra insurance. If the Camper for rent has a generator there is usually a per hour fee on its use which is calculated after your rental and for many people camping in the wild this is worth it. If you are staying at a campground you don't need a generator. Visit conversion bus for help choosing the right bus first.

When returning your camper van rental it is usually required that you clean the it so that it is ready for use for the next renter. If you return the Camper in a condition that is not clean and ready for use, you could be charged a cleaning fee. Special insurance is often needed to prevent a catastrophe financially should you have an accident. It typically is about $15 Per Day or you can get a binder from your car insurance company.

If you have a breakdown during your rental period many companies have nationwide 24-hour roadside assistance, 24-hour vehicle operation assistance, and 24-hour customer service in many languages, Toll-free technical service hotline, mobile mechanical services, and warranty station appointment services can often be very valuable in ensuring your vacation is not a total disaster should a breakdown occur

You do not need a special license to operate an camper but most rental places require you be at least 25 years of age with a valid driver's license. You will pay a serious late fee if you don't return the camper on time. Try camper rentals. Visit bus rental or truck rental for information on renting a bus or truck.
