Earn $50,000+ Renting Out Your Van

Van owners ask us all the time how much money they can expect to make by renting out their van on GoCamp. The quick answer is up to as much as $50,000, and perhaps more.

The longer answer is that lots of factors determine how much money you’ll make. For example, how many days of the year will your van be available to renters? How many people can your van seat and sleep? Is it new? Super fancy? Pet friendly? Check out our top five earners over the last five seasons below.

The numbers shared below represent net income to the van owner. As a reminder, GoCamp is one of the only peer-to-peer rental platforms where van owners keep 100% of the revenue earned from things like mileage fees, pet fees and other add-ons. Most other sites take a percentage of the total booking, including mileage fees and add-ons. For owners in our PRO program, GoCamp only takes a percentage of the nightly rental rate. That means you will always earn more money when you partner with GoCamp. We’re van owners too. We get it.
