Renting an RV is easy and less expensive than hotels, flights, and rental cars
The all-inclusive RV Rental market is ready for you. A breakthrough new way to rent an RV at the world’s largest RV rental platform, Outdoorsy is making this summer vacation look even more attractive.
Whether you rent an RV to drive to a memorable destination like Disney’s Fort Wilderness Park in Orlando, get your breath taken away at the sight of waking up next to the Grand Canyon, Outdoorsy now offers “delivered” RV Rentals where you never have to lift a finger. Instead, you rent an RV and have it dropped off and set up to perfection wherever you want to vacation.
New Trend: RVs delivered to your favorite spot
Nearly 60% of Outdoorsy listings offer “delivery” of RVs, motorhomes, and trailers to some of the most sought-after destinations in the world.
Even if you choose to drive an RV, you will spend less on average on an RV rental including fuel costs during these times when gas prices are at their highest. That’s because RV prices have remained relatively stable with only an average $5 increase over last year. On the other hand, hotels are up as much as 40%. Flights will set you back 20% more than in 2021.
First-time RV renters are getting younger too. That’s largely because of the ease of renting virtually any ready-to-go RV for any budget. The idea that you can customize your vacation and choose from thousands of locations to do a turn-key RV rental makes for an effortless vacation glamping in style.
To find the perfect RV delivered and ready, search outdoorsy.com and select “Delivery”.
