Everything went well and as planned. The only small criticism I have is the clarity over miles and kilometres on the agreement form that you both have to sign. The fee took about six days from the start date of the rental period. I don't find the website to be the easiest to use. Overall very happy.

You’ll need a suitable insurance cover
Not only is insuring your vehicle is a legal requirement, but it provides peace of mind that your investment is protected at any time. Two common insurance options are the pay-as-you-go daily insurance cover and the annual self-drive hire policies. Each have their own benefits, depending on how often you use your vehicle and the type of coverage you want in your policy.
Pay-as-you-go-daily-insurance
Some of our owners don't use their motorhome's particularly often or only rely on them for short periods every now and then. Therefore, they often rely on pay-as-go insurance, a comprehensive insurance policy that offers a flexible solution to insure your vehicle for a limited period of time in the UK or in Europe. These policies will cost you on average £23 per night which will be subtracted from your commisions. Please keep this in mind when setting the nightly rates: these should include coverage for the prices
We use a UK based company called DayInsure.
Annual Self Drive Hire Insurance
This option allows you to get your motorhome insured for hiring it out throughout the year. Unlike pay-as-you-go daily insurance, a comprehensive annual insurance policy covers your renters and provides you off-hire cover. That means you and other named drivers are insured if you want to use the vehicle without a rental contract.
If you would like us to assist you with the insurance process, just give us a call at +44 1344 207870 or send an email to sales@camptoo.co.uk and we’ll help you find the perfect insurance solution.
Receive the first rental requests
Your advertisement is finished, so potential renters can now see your listed vehicle. To ensure that you are visible and get plenty of requests, we’ll boost your ad for a short time.
We’ll notify you via email or SMS if someone is interested in your vehicle. When you are considering a request and you're unsure, let us know and we're re more than happy to help you every step of the way.
Accept the rental request
With the rental request, the potential renters send you a personal message in which they explain why your vehicle is perfect and where they are planning to travel to. You can look at their Camptoo profile with additional information as well as their reviews. We check the renter’s identity as well as the validity of their driving licence.
If you are comfortable and feel happy with the renter, feel free to accept the request. By accepting the request, you agree to the rental terms.
Payment process and deposit
Camptoo manages the whole payment process for you. Once payment has been made, contact details are made available to both parties to arrange the pick-up. The amount will be transferred to your account the next business day after the trip has started.
The renter also has to pay a security deposit a few days before departure. The deposit is set by the owner but is usually £1.000 for motorhomes and campervans and £500 for caravans.
The adventure starts
Once the booking is paid in full (including deposit) the renter can start the journey! Most paperwork is done by Camptoo. All you need to do is conduct a vehicle inspection and sign-off before handing over the keys!
Once the trip is over
Camptoo will finalise your paperwork before the renter returns. You only need to perform a final inspection and inform us as to whether the deposit can be returned to the renter. You are entitled to charge for extra mileage, cleaning costs, gas, and/or toll fees. Everything is simple and can be handled online. It won’t take longer than a few minutes.

Melanie about Matthew
Apr 2020
The rental with Matthew went well and as planned. There were no unforseen problems and he provided all the necessary information for our insurance cover. I would welcome him back or recommend him to anyone else renting out their motorhome. All went well with Camptoo as well.
Liane about Elizabeth

Elizabeth was a lovely guest in our van. Very easy to deal with and treated Sammy really well, he came back as he went out, on time etc. Would definitely let her rent again from us
Sarah about Karyn

Karyn and her husband were wonderful to deal with and very understanding of the changes we had to make for the pickup time due to the rainy weather. A pleasure to deal with!
