AirBNB RV Rental<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Can you rent out an RV on AirBnB? Airbnb.com allows its rental owners to list RVs as a rental. It also allows users to select the option of \u201cRV\/Campers\u201d in the type of unique home rental they\u2019re looking for. Renting out your RV or camper is a great way to make some extra side cash, and it also connects you to the RVing community in other places.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curious how to go about listing an RV on Airbnb? Or maybe you\u2019re wondering how much extra money renting out your classic-style RV will actually get you. Whatever questions you\u2019ve got, read on for some more information and tips!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airbnb and RV Rentals<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Airbnb really is the most reliable place to find rentals and renters. Also, this innovative website is growing rapidly and spans the globe. In fact, I used it to rent several Airbnbs during a trip to China in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also find some very unique and charming places to stay listed on this website. If you\u2019re looking to rent out a houseboat, a basement, a plane, a train, a yurt, or anything slightly peculiar in that area, Airbnb has you covered. They also allow the renting out of RVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re looking to rent an RV, or you\u2019re looking at renting yours out, it\u2019s worth taking a quick look in your area and seeing if the RV-renting interest is building there. With many of the unique homes on Airbnb, it takes a certain renter to show interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renting Out Your RV<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If your adorable, well-kept RV is just sitting in your backyard most of the year, begging to be taken out on a fun trip, then you might want to consider listing it on Airbnb as a place to rent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a great little side hustle in a non-saturated market. If you live in a scenic, outdoor-centered state or community, this is also super helpful! And if you\u2019re not comfortable with renting your sweet family RV out to strangers, no worries. It\u2019s 100% up to you (or whoever owns the vehicle).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you are looking at renting your RV out, here\u2019s a quick guide on how to get that ball rolling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Go to \u201cBecome a Host\u201d on Airbnb.com.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Type in your country, what (general) type of rental you\u2019re listing, and the amount of space it has for potential renters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Sign in or create an account (all free).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Read their \u201cBefore You Join\u201d section for a quick understanding of the community which Airbnb.com strives to facilitate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Under \u201cWhat kind of place are you listing?\u201d, select \u201cUnique space\u201d and then Camper\/RV.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Select what amount of the space you\u2019ll be renting out, whether it\u2019s used primarily by guests or not, and whether you\u2019re listing this as a company or as an individual entity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Fill in the RV\u2019s info (bathrooms, rooms, beds, etc).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Put in a location for your RV (where would the renters need to go to pick it up or stay in it?). If you live in a rural area, this makes it a little easier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Select the amenities available and what all can be used while it\u2019s rented (washing machine, dishwasher, etc).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Your RV is well on its way to getting listed and rented out! Depending on your area, you could be looking at an income of around $1,000\/month. You could also have it listed for more or less, depending on the location of the listing, the condition of the rental, and whether or not you\u2019re a Superhost on Airbnb. You can also charge a little more depending on the amenities and other things you might throw in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After putting in all this info, you need to take pictures (make sure they\u2019re nice and clean!), put in descriptions, info, and a title, and then get the place ready!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The amount of time your Airbnb listing will take to get some notice can vary a lot. Some people get renters the next day, while others might have theirs listed for a couple of months before getting someone\u2019s interest. This can depend a lot on the time of year and it it\u2019s camping weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Renting an RV from Airbnb<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019re considering renting an RV from Airbnb, you\u2019re in luck! This market is growing. However, the number of available RVs can depend on your area, and then you need to find out if it\u2019s in a safe place, rented out by someone trustworthy, and whether it\u2019s clean or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019re looking for an RV rental, follow these quick steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Go to Airbnb.com.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. In the upper left corner of the screen, type in the area you\u2019re looking at RVing in (or a nearby area you can travel to with the rented RV).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Go to the \u201cFilters\u201d button at the top, scroll down to \u201cUnique Homes\u201d, and select the Camper\/RV option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Usually, at least a few options will come up, but if nothing does, try a different area!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. If options do pop up, browse through the RVs available and go from there!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Some of them will look more professional or organized than others. If you\u2019re looking for a rental being rented out by someone with experience, you can also try going to the \u201cFilter\u201d tab one more time and selecting the \u201cSuperhost\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This usually narrows the search down quite a bit! If you\u2019re happy with the RVs you\u2019re seeing, congrats. You\u2019re on your way to renting out one of the adorable campers or RVs listed on Airbnb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
