FAQ for Owners |
Why should I rent my RV? Most RV Owners use their RV on an average of 3-6 times a year. The rest of the time, it just sits in storage or at home. You still have to pay insurance, yearly inspection fees, maintenance and storage. Texas RV Owners Rental, LLC helps you recoup those costs and much more by referring renters out on daily, weekly and even monthly rental terms. The final decision is always yours as to whether or not you rent it out. You stay in total control. Plus, it’s a great way to increase your income!!
Where is Texas RV Owners Rental located? We have Owners in the Dallas, Ft. Worth, Houston and San Antonio area currently and are ever growing. We can market your RV from wherever you would like in the Texas area. We no longer are able to offer management, so your RV can be posted locally to renter near or en route to your area.
Is there a fee to list my RV? Texas RV Owners Rental is a FREE advertising service. Not "FREE for a Limited Time" free, but truely FREE. We don't charge any Monthly Service fees, Introductory Rates or any Startup fees. We charge 25% of the rental (only) as our commission. Special commission rates for new market areas. All other charges, such as mileage charges and generator charges are yours to keep. It's that simple.
How Do I Know My RV Won’t Get Torn Up? OK, this is the one we hear most often. Bottom line is that the renter is responsible for the RV while it is in their possession. The only exceptions are normal wear & tear. Each renter is screened through the DMV using their Drivers License and Insurance information and the Rental Policies sheet defines the basic requirements a renter must meet to qualify to rent your RV. The rental is subject to your approval. You will decide on the security deposit, keeping your deductible in mind. Deductibles are agreed upon on the contract. Chances are, there will be times where repairs will need to be made. In the end, you will have to decide what you feel comfortable holding as a deposit.
Being diligent with your walk-through will save you and the renter headaches. Each renter will need to be given an extensive walk-through on the RV using the form that we provide and must sign to state that they understand the policies and procedures. You’ll keep complete log in and log out sheets documenting any damages to the RV as a renter comes in and out. Video and picture logs are also a great way to log. This keeps a renter from coming back later and saying the reason something broke or got damaged was because you didn’t tell them how to operate it or that the damage was there when they picked it up. In addition, each renter is required to read and sign the Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions were written to protect the RV itself, you (the Owner) and Texas RV Owners Rental, LLC. They clearly spell out what the renter is responsible for and the penalties involved if they don’t adhere to them.
What paperwork will I need? If we refer renters to you, we will provide you everything you need for a complete rental. We will ask that you complete and sign our Rental Agreement so we have all of the information that we need for our files. As your Referral Service, we will supply you with all of the required documents that you will need to rent the RV. The Contract, Walk Through, Terms and Conditions, RV 101, etc…We will acquire the Renter’s Driver’s License, Insurance and Motor Vehicle Report and email this to you if there are any flags. We will complete a Reservation Confirmation with the rates and totals and email all of this to both you and the Renter. You will be responsible for having all of the paperwork filled out completely and accurately, for insurance purposes and your peace of mind.

If the unit is still covered by a warranty, you will either send the renter to an authorized warranty station or file the claim upon their return. All documentation and pictures or videos would be required on your end for record keeping Damages to tires and vehicle from tire damage are considered Road Hazard and are the responsibility of the renter, unless there are signs of normal wear. Tires will need to be inspected prior to departure and on return.
