There are a few things you need to be aware of, though. That's
why we've outlined some motor home driving

Are there special terms or conditions
for renting an RV?
To rent an RV, you must be at least 25 years of age, have a major
credit card, carry current full-coverage auto insurance, rent
a minimum of 3 nights and provide us 48 hours advance notice.
Smoking and pets are not allowed in most of our RVs. To accommodate

Do you require a deposit for a reservation
or damage?
Yes, we require both. Please see our price
list for the exact amount.
A reservation deposit will be charged to your credit card at
the time of your reservation. This reservation deposit will be
applied to the total rental fee on the day of pickup.
A damage deposit will be charged to your credit card at the time
of your departure, and varies according to the size of the RV
you are renting. Your damage deposit will be refunded barring
any damages. However, any extensive mileage or generator usage
will be need to be deducted from your damage deposit upon return.
Back to Top
Are there any additional charges
to anticipate?
In addition to the rental fee, there is a prep fee. Other potential
fees that can incur would be for generator usage, mileage, damage,
gasoline and tax. Please see our price
list for the exact fees.
Typical usage averages 1.5 hours per day. A generator runs the
electrical devices in the RV. However, you can minimize this expense
by staying in a campsite that provides electrical hookups.
Mileage fees calculated in house per destination. Consult one
of our Rental Agents for further details.
Naturally, your travels will require you to purchase gas. You
can estimate between 8 to 12 miles per gallon under normal conditions.
Remember, the generator also uses this same gas resource.
To take the hassle out of estimating the price for your trip,
call us. RVs To Go-Grand Island
has trained rental agents that will be happy to calculate the
total price for your rental.

Do you have a First Class package?
Yes, "Adventure First Class" packages are intended
to spoil those searching for a luxury vacation where everything
is provided. Typically, RV rentals require you to bring your own
bedding, cookware and accessories. And, when your return, you
would have to ensure that the RV has been refueled, cleaned and
that the holding tanks have been dumped. Click here for a complete
itemization of the "Adventure First Class" provisions.
With our "Adventure First Class" package, just bring
a packed suitcase and you're ready to go. If you prefer, you can
unpack your suitcases into the RV cabinets and store your suitcases
with us until you return.
And, we'll do the refueling, cleaning and dumping for you. So,
when you return, just hand us the keys and we'll do the rest.
You are on vacation; why spoil it by having this burden hanging
over your head?
Also, "Adventure First Class" packages provide a TV,
stereo and cable hookup not available with our standard rental.
There are nominal fees associated with this program.

Can I take my pet in the RV?
Adventure RV does have specific RVs available for animal enthusiasts.
There is also an additional refundable pet deposit. Be sure to
ask one of our Rental Agents for more details.
Back to Top
Do you allow smoking in the RV?
No, except in specific RVs. Be sure to ask one of our Rental
Agents for more details.
Unfortunately, smoke odors quickly absorb into the RV interior
and are extremely difficult to remove. Therefore, we must impose
very stiff penalties for any smoke damage, no matter how minor.
If you want to smoke, we recommend you go outside on the downwind
side of the RV.
Back to Top
While traveling, how many people are
allowed to ride in the RV?
The number of people allowed to ride in an RV equals the number
of seatbelts in the RV. Typically, this ranges from 5 to 10 people.
Call us and we can help you determine what RV size you need.

What items should I pack for my trip?
RVs To Go-Grand Island provides
the basic necessities like pots, pans, dishes, kitchen utensils,
sheets, blankets, towels, washcloths and pillows. You will need
to bring anything else you like. You might find our packing
checklist helpful when you are getting ready for your trip.
Back to Top
Can I leave my car or any other
items (i.e. suitcase) at the rental facility while we are traveling?
We suggest that you pick-up your RV with another driver so that
you can return home with your car and the RV. Once home, you can
pack your clothes directly rather than bringing a suitcase to
our rental facility.
If you must leave your car with us, it is entirely at your own
risk, and you will need to make arrangements in advance. If you
bring suitcases and want to store them after you unpack, you'll
need to make arrangements for this in advance too!

Can you pick me up and/or drop me
off at the airport?
This service can be arranged for a nominal fee. Please contact
us to make arrangements for this in advance.

Do you lock your awnings, so that
we cannot use them?
No. However, awnings are one of the most frequently damaged items
due to unpredictable wind conditions. You may use the awning -
just remember that you are responsible for any damage. As an alternative,
you might consider bringing a canopy or staying in an RV park
that provides for shade.
Back to Top
Can I tow a car or boat behind the
RV?
Yes. RVs To Go-Grand Island
does allow you to tow behind our RVs. We allow a maximum tongue
weight of up to 200 lbs. and a maximum gross weight of 2500 lbs.
There is an additional charge of $25 per day for towing. Towing
is limited to specific RV's, so you must make arrangements for
towing in advance in order to reserve an RV with a receiver hitch.
Also, you will need to provide your own tow bar.
Back to Top
Do you provide bike racks?
Yes. Bike racks are available to be rented that carry up to 3
bikes. The bike rack mounts on the receiver hitch. Thus, towing
would not be available in conjunction with a bike rack rental.
Bike racks rent for $7 per day or $35 per week.

Do you provide baby car seats?
Yes. Please call us ahead so that we can make arrangements for
you. Car seats rent for $5 per day or $25 per week.

RVs. However, most of the 40-foot coaches have automatic levelers.
Back to Top
Do you provide a ladder so we can
get on the roof?
Ladders are provided. However, ladder use is restricted to our
mechanic and rental technicians for maintenance functions only.
You are not allowed to get up on the roof under any circumstance
due to safety precautions and in order to prevent damage. RV rooftops
are not designed for recreational use, and can be easily damaged
resulting in unwanted costs. Any use of the roof will incur additional
fees to you.
Back to Top
What if I return the RV on a date
other than the scheduled date?
Your rental RV is due back on the scheduled date prior to 12:00
noon. A fee of $50 per hour will be charged for each hour you
are late. Please call our rental facility if you are going to
be late. If you return earlier than expected, no refunds will
be made. Additionally, no refunds will be made for late pickups
or unused miles.

What if I need to cancel my RV reservation?

your scheduled, pick-up date. Otherwise, a portion of your reservation
deposit will be forfeited.
