Before deciding on a Camper van rental, there are a lot of things to consider and to think of. This is if you are not renting in your home country for checking out new motorhomes.Depending on the location e.g. if you do camper van rental in Australia there are dangerous animals to be aware of like spiders and snakes or even crocodiles. If you go to alaska there are bears and other large preditors. So get to know the ins ands outs of the country or place you are visiting. Luckily in most of the rental countries this kind of danger rare, especially if you stay in the inhabited areas and local rental companies will warn you for any specific dangers. It could make at least make you consider motorhome hire instead of camping with a tent.
Once you have decided on the country, it’s a good time to start gathering some information about how people camp over there, are there any campgrounds? Is it allowed to do free camping and if so what are the dangers and restrictions? How are the campgrounds equipped? When doing a camper van rental in New Zealand, most camprgounds have a fully equipped kitchen and barbeque facilities. So there is no need to pay extra for bbq hire. You might even consider passenger van rentals or a sleepervan if you don’t need the space or luxury.
So lets point out some of the considerations:
1. How many people will use the motorhome?
2 Will we be using campground of go free camping? If so how big is the drinking water capacity and is the vehicle self contained?
3. Will the size of the motorhome restrict me in any way? Are there restrictions on some of the (often government or nature) campgrounds
4. How old is the motorhome I am renting? Is it an automatic transmission or manual?
5. Does this camper van hire company have a track record, can I very their existence?
