My RV has seatbelts for 8 and sleeps 10.

But the maximum people I allow for a rental is 6.

Why?

- less wear and tear
- less work to prep
- less damage

RV’s require lots of adjusting, fine tuning, and troubleshooting.

Less people = less issues.

I’m planning to travel across eastern Canada this summer and western Canada in 2023.

In 2024, it will be somewhere in the USA.

Any recommendations?

Make sure you insurance company knows that you’re renting out your RV, even if you get through a rental platform. You’ll avoid MAJOR issues if something happens.

Almost every person that rented my RV has asked some version of this question:

“Can you make good money renting an RV?”

The answer is “Yes”. But it’s NOT for everyone.

Treat it like a business. You need to be able to detach emotionally and have a plan.

[RV Guy @TheRealRVGuy]

If you’re renting your RV, DON’T add a “Cleaning” fee.

It suggests that a renter can bring it back dirty. After all, you charged them a fee for cleaning.

Better to add a “Prep” fee for each rental and to set expectations at time of pick up.

@harvesthosts So cool! This looks like my RV too.

[RV Guy @TheRealRVGuy]

@CampingWorld Nice pattern though!

[RV Guy @TheRealRVGuy]

The best thing about RVing is the lifestyle factor.

It gives me the opportunity to travel and an office for when I want to work.

I can develop a business strategy while looking at mountains or watching ducks on a lake.

And when not travelling, I can rent it for 💰

Should you allow pets when renting out your RV? 🐶🐱🐵

It's a personal decision to make but here's what you should consider:

A thread... 🧵

Choose your words carefully. A good way to phrase it is:

"We love pets but unfortunately we don't allow them in our RV."

Due to high fuel prices, some RV owners have been talking about offering unlimited mileage on their rentals.

ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?🤪

Customers who pay $200-$500 per night for an RV + campsite fees + insurance are not going to be deterred by more expensive fuel.

Did you know?

You can't count on an RV dealer to maintain your RV. Most RV dealers across North America make their money financing RV's - not repairing them.
