Last updated: December 7, 2020
Please read this RV Rental Agreement carefully before consummating the rental of the RV.
If you accept or agree to these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent
and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms
and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer and apply to that company or other legal entity.
Rental services are limited to those persons who are twenty-five (25) years of age and older in
accordance with state and federal laws. By renting the RV, you warrant you are the requisite
minimum age, and that you have the right, authority, and capacity to agree to and abide by these
Terms.
1. Additional Definitions
“We”, “our” or “us” means RVRCC.
“Authorized Driver” means the Renter and each driver listed on this contract who is permitted to
drive the RV. Each Authorized Driver must have a valid driver’s license, hold the applicable and
appropriate vehicle insurance and be at least twenty-five (25) years of age.
“Charges” means the fees and charges that are incurred under these Terms.
“Rental Period” means the period between the time you take possession of the RV until the RV
is either returned to or recovered by us and checked in by us.
2. Reservation Deposit: A valid credit card is required in advance to reserve an RV. This will be
charged if the unit is returned with damage or for cancellations (Full price will be charged for
cancellation with less than a 5-day notice). Reservation deposit is NON·REFUNDABLE and
NON·TRANSFERABLE for any cancellation made 13 days or less prior to departure.
3. Damage Deposit: A $500.00 damage deposit on a valid credit card is due at check-out upon
rental in addition to rental fees. This will be charged to the credit card on file if damage occurs
while the unit is in your possession/control.
4. Misc Fees: You are responsible for providing your own bedding/linens and towels. RVRCC
supplies basic cooking/kitchen supplies, coffee makers, toilet paper, and cleaning supplies.
A $50 fee will be charged to your credit card if the grey/black water tanks are not emptied at
time of drop off. This applies for any units being towed by our customers. (Does not apply for
booking at full hookup sites)
A $50-$80 fee will be charged to your credit card if the unit is not cleaned prior to being dropped
off/picked up. This includes but not limited to: dirty dishes, dirty toilet, trash left behind, excess
amount of mud/sand in/on unit. Unit needs to have all dishes cleaned/put away, toilets need to be
cleaned, and the floors need to be swept out. Trash must be removed from the units to avoid
additional charges.
A $20-$50 setup fee will be charged to the credit card if the RVs are not put back together at
time of pickup/drop off. The following must done in order for your card to not be charged:
dining tables/couches must be put back together, all dishes must be washed and put back, all
trash must be removed from the RV, all food must be removed from the sink, cabinets and
refrigerators. The charge will be determined on how much time it takes to get the unit clean.
A $1500-$2000 fee will be charged to the credit card if the awning is damaged while the RV is
in your possession. Awning may be used at campgrounds with prior permission from RVRCC.
You must receive permission in order to use the awnings. Any damage to the awing is 100%
the customer's responsibility, financially and otherwise. Awning must be brought in at night,
when away from the unit for any amount of time and in severe wind and weather. Awning use is
not permitted when camped at Oceano/Pismo Dunes. A $80-$125 fee will be charged to the
credit card per stabilizer jack that is damaged while the RV is in your possession. All items left
behind in the RVs are the renter’s responsibility to have shipped and a $20 service fee will be
charged for our time/fuel for shipping the item(s). RVRCC takes no responsibility for items left
behind by renters.
5. Generators: We rent generators for an additional $25-$40 per day. A $20 re-fueling fee will
be charged if the generator is returned without a full tank. Generators are never to be put directly
in the sand/mud. They must be placed on a surface above the sand/mud. If a generator is returned
not running, the renter will be charged for the repair cost. The renter is 100% responsible for any
damage or theft of the generators. This includes but not limited to: broken pull cords ($80), dirty
carburetors ($100), or any other damages. RVRCC is not responsible for reimbursement for any
mechanical issues the generator may have while it is in your possession. If a generator is

responsibility to fill it up.
7. Payment & Fees: A 5% credit card transaction fee is charged for any credit card transactions.
Cash, check or credit/debit card is accepted for the rental payment but payment by check must be
made in full at least 14 days prior to ensure time for the bank to clear the check. All charges must
be paid in full before delivery/pick up of the RV.

employee drive time. We will NOT respond to any RV issues after 5pm. Any issues will be
addressed the following day after 10am. RVRCC has up to 15 days from the return of the unit to
inspect the unit for damages and contact the customer. The credit card can be charged up to 15
days if any damage or issues are discovered.
9. Cancellation Policy: If you cancel the reservation at least 14 days before the rental pick up
date, you will receive a full refund. If you cancel between six (6) and 13 days before your rental
pick up date, you will receive a 30% refund. No refund if cancelled within five (5) days of rental
pick up date. NO EXCEPTIONS. We will not refund you if you do not have a reservation for a
campground or that reservation is cancelled/modified. (A non-refundable deposit may be
required for booking of 7 nights or more.)
10. Insurance: You are responsible for all damage or loss you cause to yourself, your property,
the rental unit and others. You shall provide RVRCC with a current & valid vehicle insurance
card indicating that you have primary motor vehicle liability, collision and comprehensive
insurance covering you, RVRCC and the vehicle you are driving and towing (unless RVRCC
delivers the unit, in which case you are prohibited from towing or moving the RV). If your auto
insurance does not cover the RV rental, you will need to purchase insurance through MDA
Insurance (more information on this is provided on request). You are responsible for any issues
that occurs while you are towing the unit. You are responsible for repairing any flat tires that
occur while the unit is in your possession. You are not authorized to repair or attempt to repair a
unit unless you have been authorized by RVRCC. RVRCC is not responsible for any injuries that
may occur while fixing any of our units.
11. Your RV Rental Responsibilities: You are responsible for re-filling the fuel tank, the
generator fuel tank (if rented) and the propane tank prior to returning the unit. RVRCC will
charge $4.50 per gallon for re-filling the fuel and $4 per gallon for propane plus a $25 service
fee. Our RV rentals have a three-night minimum. We have a 100 mile per day allowance, $.35
per mile once allowance has been met. (Example, if the RV is rented for 10 nights, you can go
1000 miles without any addition fees. If you go 2000 miles in 10 days, there will be an additional
$350 fee charged to your credit card.) The RV is never allowed to be taken on dirt roads.
12. Check-in/Check-out or Pick Up times: The units are usually delivered/setup between
12pm-2pm (unless prior arrangements have been made). Check out is 11am for RVs at most
campgrounds. Customers must have the units dropped off by 12pm if the customer is towing the
unit. We are unable to deliver/meet customers after 5pm. We have access to an after-hours
delivery service; however, they charge between $40-$60 per delivery. This delivery fee is an
addition to RVRCC's delivery fee and will need to be paid in cash to the driver. We will NOT
deliver into the Oceano/Pismo Dunes; however; we have access to a RV delivery service who may
be able to deliver into the sand for an additional fee.

Dry Camping: Please note that when dry camping (no hookups), the batteries may not last more
than eight (8) hours without a generator. Without direct power, the outlets will not work, and the
refrigerator may not get as cold as it does when running off electricity. The units have freshwater
tanks between 30-50 gallons. It is the renter’s responsibility to refill the freshwater if they run
out while camping. The water pressure may be low when dry camping. Without direct water
flow, the units may have low water pressure. A 50 gl tank will probably run out in under 15
minutes of usage at full water pressure. Conserve your water by using the campground
bathrooms & showers or using paper plates.
