A campervan is a Class B motorhome. The body is a van, and the inside carries a smaller version of what a larger RV has: a bed, a galley, a fridge, often a wet bath. Many are stretched in length or raised in height to fit it all in.
Against a Class C you lose interior room. What you get back is a vehicle that fits a normal parking space and drives like a large van, which matters more than square footage on a trip that moves every day. The difference between Class A, B and C lays out where the line falls.
Every van on this site belongs to one of our rental partners. Outwander searches them at the same time, shows what is free on your dates, and hands you to the partner's own site to book. The rental companies pay us, so nothing is added to the price you see.
A campervan can come from either half of this market, and the halves feel different once you are standing next to the van. Owner-listed vans on Outdoorsy, RVshare and RVezy are conversions, so the layout, the bed size and whether there is a bathroom at all were decisions someone made one van at a time. Cruise America and Indie Campers run standardized vehicles from their own depots, so you know the floorplan before you arrive, and a depot is what makes a one-way trip possible at all. The THL brands (El Monte RV, Mighty and Road Bear RV) run the same way from depots in 12 US cities.
The nightly rate is the number everyone compares, and it is not the number you pay. Mileage is the line that surprises people most, since depot fleets meter it. Campsites are the other one, and they are booked separately from the van. What a night in an RV park costs has the range.
A van's advantage here is real and worth naming: it burns less fuel than anything larger, and it fits sites and city parking that a Class A cannot. On a trip that moves every day, that gap compounds.
Peer-to-peer owners want their van back where it started, so one-way rentals almost never come from that side of the market. Depot fleets are the ones that can take a drop-off in another city, and it has to be arranged in advance.
Most people end up doing the loop instead, and a van is the easiest vehicle to do it in: fly into the region, pick up there, drive a circuit, drop it back where you started. Two plane tickets, no drop-off fee, and no excess-mileage bill at the end. Our guide to one-way rentals has the arithmetic.
From our rental partners: Outdoorsy, RVshare, RVezy, Cruise America, Indie Campers, and the THL brands (El Monte RV, Mighty and Road Bear RV). Outwander does not own or list vehicles. We search them together and send you to the partner's site to book.
No. Our partners pay us when a booking comes through, so the figure on the results page is theirs: the same price you would find going to their site directly.
Yes. Every search queries the partners at that moment, so the results reflect what is actually free on your dates rather than a cached rate card. If a search comes back empty, it usually means nothing in that fleet is available for those exact dates, not that the location has no vans. Widening the dates by a day or two is the fastest thing to try.
Three things set the bill: the season, how early you book, and how far you drive. We do not publish a national average, because the spread between an older conversion van and a new Sprinter build is wide enough that the average describes nobody. Each city page below shows the lowest nightly price our partners are returning for that location right now, plus a chart of how the nightly rates on offer there are spread out.
None of them come from us: Outwander adds nothing to the partner's price. The ones that come from the rental are mileage, the cleaning or prep fee, and the security deposit. Mileage is the big one on depot fleets, and our Cruise America promo codes page shows what it works out to on a real trip. Campsites are billed separately by the campground, not the rental company: what a night in an RV park costs has that range.
Yes. Class B is the industry label for a van-bodied motorhome, and campervan is what most people call it. Some are sold as B+, which adds an extension over the cab used for storage or entertainment rather than a bed.
A standard driver's licence covers the vans on this site, and a campervan drives close enough to a large van that most people need no adjustment. Age is the rule that actually bites: Cruise America rents to drivers 21 and over with a valid licence and a major credit card, while on the peer-to-peer marketplaces the minimum age is set per listing rather than centrally. Read the listing before you book.
It depends who you book with. Depot fleets usually meter the miles and bill for them, which is why a mileage offer on that side tends to be worth more than a few percent off the nightly rate. Owners on the peer-to-peer platforms set the allowance and the overage rate per listing, so the number is on the listing rather than in a company-wide policy. The van does help here: it burns less fuel than anything larger, so the miles cost you less even when they are not included. Our Cruise America promo codes page works through what a mileage line is worth on a real trip.
Whoever you book with, not us. Outwander is a search layer, so the cover, the deposit and the roadside assistance are all set by the partner, and a peer-to-peer platform handles them differently from a depot fleet. You will see the terms at their checkout, before you pay anything.
Usually only from a depot fleet, and only if you arrange it in advance. Peer-to-peer owners need the van returned to them, so one-way is rare on that side. One-way RV rentals covers the alternatives.
A campervan parks in a normal space and drives like a large van. A Class C motorhome gives you the bed over the cab and more room inside, at the cost of a vehicle you have to think about in every parking lot. Both are on Outwander: RV and motorhome rentals has the larger end.
