Here’s a little more of what you can expect.

1. Welcome to Outdoorsy

What is Outdoorsy, and why does it exist? Good news — we’ll tell you! And while we’re at it, we’ll also breakdown the best methods for communication with us. From the Outdoorsy RV Owner Community to our help page to our customer support team, we have A’s to all your Q’s.

2. How Outdoorsy Works

We explain our matchmaking service. We’re no Eharmony, but we do have a knack for matching renters with your gorgeous RVs! We let you in on our process and how it can make you money.

The payment system gets broken down, and we answer every business owner’s burning question — how do you set up your taxes? 

3. Outdoorsy Insurance

With a range of protection packages for your renters to choose from, we’ve got you covered. All qualifying vehicles you list are eligible for this industry-leading liability coverage of up to $1 million!

And when you’re taking your RV out for a personal spin, there’s our preferred RV insurance partner, Roamly. Roamly will never drop your coverage for renting on Outdoorsy, and you may save up to 25% off your existing policy.

We break down all the coverage options, what is and isn’t covered, and how to file a claim.

4. Attracting Renters 

Your listing is up, and now it’s time to draw renters in! We give you all our tips, tricks, and best practices to get your RV booked and busy.

5. Your First Renter

First time? Don’t worry! We’ll walk you through it from confirming your first renter and prepping your rig to the key exchange and your renter’s return.

6. Trouble on the Road

Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. We offer top tips from Outdoorsy owners when it comes to handling issues that may arise when your renters hit the road.

7. When Your Renter Returns

Getting your RV back, inspecting your rig for damages, and documenting the condition of your camper is a process. We explain the proper procedure to follow upon your renter’s return.

8. Owner Best Practices

Want to make your renters love you? Deliver a great experience. We give you our tips on keeping renters happy and your rig in tip-top shape.

9. Owner Resources

We leave you with every resource, document, and link imaginable. Everything you need, all on one page!
