When you list your van with GoCamp you have the option of letting us do all the heavy lifting, helping you make the most money possible on your camper van through our Long Wheelbase Program. Or you can go it alone with our less popular Short Wheelbase Program.

Two Options for Listing Your Van
Long Wheelbase Program
*(The Best Option)
Best for maximizing revenue generation and leveraging GoCamp’s expertise and industry relationships to your advantage.
GoCamp enjoys a special marketing partnership with Outdoorsy, one of the nation’s leading RV rental marketplaces. With GoCamp’s Long Wheelbase Program, when you list your van on GoCamp we create an identical listing for you on Outdoorsy. When a reservation is made on either platform, the calendars synch automatically. 90% of the GoCamp fleet is in the Long Wheelbase Program. You get better payout terms than you would going it alone, and that’s true regardless of which site generated the reservation. The math really works in your favor. When you double your exposure, you quadruple your rentals!
You get two listings
You get a professionally managed listing on the GoCamp website and on Outdoorsy. On both, GoCamp responds to inquiries, builds rapport, closes the sale, and then introduces you to a steady stream of renters.
Features
- Synched calendars. Calendars on both listings automatically update when a reservation is made on either platform.
- Insurance. Insurance coverage includes $1 million in liability to you, $1 million in liability to the renter, and up to $200k in comp and collision.
- FREE Photography. We’ll schedule a professional photo shoot to make sure your van is presented in the best possible light.
- Option for instant book. When GoCamp’s team of reservation agents is managing your listing, you have the option to have your listing set to “instant book” so that renters can quickly and easily confirm their reservations. Listings on instant book earn up to 10% more.
- Priority display. When suggesting vans to renters, your listing will show up in the top half of search results on GoCamp’s website. Our thumb will be on the scale for your van just a little bit.
- Teamwork. You’ll get goal setting and tracking assistance, plus quarterly check-ins, from a dedicated GoCamp Owner Success team member whose focus is on helping you meet your goals.
- Custom discount codes. You can offer friends and family discounts, and we can also create custom discount codes so you can help drive bookings. GoCamp reduces its commission on bookings that you send our way.
- Social media marketing. Whether on Facebook, Instagram or in our e-letter, you’ll be the star of our marketing programs. We also may feature your van on our Location pages.
- Membership in the five-star club. We’ll make sure you get and maintain a five-star rating by sharing insider tips for delighting renters.
Fees
GoCamp takes commission only on the base rental rate (the nightly fee). There is no commission on mileage charges, cleaning fees and add-ons like pet fees, bike racks, and more.
“I was one of the first van owners to join the GoCamp fleet. Today GoCamp is firmly established as an industry leader, but hasn't lost a single bit of its early pluck and entrepreneurialism. Great people, agile team, personal service ... If you want to rent out your camper van, you'll find no better.” - Chris, owner of Mr. Mike
Short Wheelbase Program
Best for those who hedge their bets managing other listings but still need an extra boost to fill gaps in the rental calendar.
GoCamp is also available as a secondary marketing channel for those that might be managing their own listings on other sites. When you use GoCamp as a secondary marketing channel, we’ll still fill your calendar with bookings, but you won’t enjoy the benefit of the GoCamp special pricing described above. So, you totally could go it alone on the bigger RV sharing sites, but why would you? 
You get one listing
You get a professionally managed listing on the GoCamp website. GoCamp responds to inquiries, builds rapport, closes the sale, and then introduces you to renters.
Features
- Manual updates to calendars. Calendars on other listings you may maintain do not synch with your GoCamp calendar.
- Insurance. Insurance coverage includes $1 million in liability to you, $1 million in liability to the renter, and up to $200k in comp and collision.
- Bookings by request only. Renters will need to submit reservation requests to book your van. There is no option for instant book. Listings on instant book earn up to 10% more.
- Search. Your listing will appear in date specific searches. When renters are simply browsing, your listing will appear in the lower half of the screen on the GoCamp website.
- Teamwork. You’ll be assigned a dedicated GoCamp Owner Success staff member whose focus is on helping you meet your goals.
- Discounts. You can offer friends and family discounts. GoCamp reduces its commission on bookings that you send our way.
- Social Media Marketing. If you’ve invested in great photos, we’d be happy to include you occasionally in our social media marketing.
- Membership in the five-star club. We’ll make sure you get and maintain a five-star rating by sharing insider tips for delighting renters.
Fees
GoCamp takes commission on the total rental, including the base rental rate (the nightly fee), cleaning fees and add-ons like pet fees, bike racks, and more. We don’t take a commission on mileage fees.
With either option you always get:
Full transparency. We pride ourselves on open communication and very much work in partnership with the van owners who rely on us to market their vans.
Personal Service. We will know you by name, answer your calls, and respond to your emails promptly. GoCamp is small by design so that we can provide excellent customer service to renters and van owners alike.
Good company. The GoCamp fleet is curated. We guard our brand integrity and have high standards. Not everyone gets to list their van on the GoCamp website. If your van is on our site, you're in very, very good company.
GoCamp by your side
“I can tell you about GoCamp in two words: hassle free. It’s so much easier to do this with GoCamp at your side.”
