Considerations for Long Term Camper Van Rentals

Vehicle Maintenance

For longer trips, renters may need to get the van serviced (e.g., oil change, tire rotation, etc.). The owner will provide all the necessary details such as the type of service required and the number of miles at which it should be done. Renters are usually expected to pay for necessary services during their trips and will be reimbursed by the owner when the trip ends.

Mileage

Calculate your route and estimated mileage ahead of time. Excess mileage fees range from $0.35 to $1 per mile. GoCamp rentals include 125 miles per night, and these miles are cumulative. So, for example, if you rent for 60 nights, you’d have 7,500 miles included (60 x 125). While this allotment is usually enough for most renters, we recommend you calculate your mileage in advance to ensure you know the full cost of the trip up front. If you know ahead of time that you’ll need more miles than the standard allowance, you might be able to negotiate additional mileage with the van owner.

Insurance

GoCamp rentals include primary insurance coverage, which means you’re protected during your trip. You don’t have to purchase a separate policy or worry about getting or changing your personal policy to cover an RV.

Roadside Assistance

Optional in many cases, but highly recommended. Roadside assistance provides 24/7 service, so you have help day and night.

Pricing

When you rent a camper van, you are essentially getting a hotel room and a vehicle in one, so you should expect rates that are similar to a hotel (but with the added bonus of adventure, flexibility, and the comforts of van life!). Overall cost can be affected by many factors, including the nightly rate of the specific van you choose, the standard discount offered for that van, and whether the trip is in high season or low season. Be sure to check out our website to see rates of vans in various locations.

Save Money

Most GoCamp vans offer a standard discount of 20% for trips longer than 28 days. Owners might choose to offer lower nightly rates or additional discounts for long term camper van rentals. Contact us to get detailed discounts on any van in our fleet!

Long term camper van rentals are great for everyone!

  • Remote Workers/Digital Nomads: You can do your work as the sun rises over the desert canyons, as the waves splash onto the shore, or as the sun sets behind the mountains. Camper vans are easy to drive and maneuver, so your office can be anywhere.
  • Potential Camper Van Buyers: If you’re thinking about purchasing a camper van and want to thoroughly experience vanlife it in action, renting long term is a great option. Unlike a quick walk-through with a dealer or at an RV show, a long term camper van rental allows you to experience every part of the camper van for weeks or months at a time. This will give you insight on ease of use, driving capabilities, features, components, maintenance, and more.
  • Homeschooling: Renting a camper van is great for active homeschooling. The Wonder Year book explains it best: “[A] long term family trip and using the world as a classroom for your kids – a trailblazing approach known as worldschooling.” There is nothing better or more memorable than learning in a live environment.
  • Extended Summer Vacations: If you’re a teacher,  professor, or seasonal worker, or if you just have a flexible schedule, renting a camper van for the summer is a great way to enjoy the break! Cross-country trips are wildly popular and provide the chance to connect with different types of nature as you traverse the country.
  • International Travelers: A long term camper van rental is the perfect way to visit and experience the U.S. Many of our vans offer one-way rentals as well, so you can combine a long term trip with a one-way rental.
