Multiple rentals are treated as separate rentals under the one way fee and minimum rental period conditions.
Travel Restrictions Cheapa Campa reserves the right at its sole discretion to restrict vehicle movements in certain areas due to adverse road or weather conditions.
Death Valley and other desert areas: Vehicles are not allowed to operate in Death Valley and other desert areas during the months of May to September. At other times clients visit these areas at their own risk and are thus responsible for all recovery and other charges. During certain periods these areas are not habitable and could pose a danger to the driver and passengers.
Mexico, Alaska, Yukon and Northwest Territories & Newfoundland: Travel to Mexico, Alaska, Yukon and Northwest Territories & Newfoundland is strictly prohibited.
Manhattan: Due to restrictions on vehicle heights, propane gas and parking, vehicles with propane are not permitted in Manhattan and are not permitted to travel through any underground or underwater tunnels.
Burning Man Festival An additional surcharge of $500 applies for travel to the Burning Man Festival.
Change of Drop Off Destination If the renter wishes to change the drop off destination after the rental has commenced, they first must obtain authorization from the Cheapa Campa Head Office. Subject to the change being approved, a minimum additional charge of $500 will apply.
Rental Extension If the customer wishes to extend the rental whilst on hire, they must first obtain authorization from Cheapa Campa Reservations who will advise of the additional costs. Rental extension is subject to fleet availability. The extra cost (Gross Rate) of an extended rental must be paid by credit card over the telephone or at a Cheapa Campa Branch immediately on confirmation of the rental extension. Failure to obtain authorization will result in the renter being charged double the daily gross rental rate.
Repairs Although we run late model vehicles, it may happen that small repairs are required. Repairs up to $100 may be affected without authorization and will be reimbursed unless the damage is caused by the renter. For amounts over $100, Cheapa Campa will need to be informed in advance. All vehicles are covered for 24hr emergency roadside assistance.
Traffic Infringements We reserve the right to charge the renter for any speeding or parking fines, traffic infringements or road toll fines. An additional administration fee of $75 per fine will apply to cover the costs of processing.
Change Of Vehicle Should the vehicle booked be unavailable through unforeseen circumstances, we reserve the right to substitute an alternative vehicle without prior notification and at no extra cost. This shall not constitute a breach of contract and does not entitle the renter to a refund. Vehicle Category Vehicles cannot be requested by make or model, only by vehicle category.
Voluntary Downgrade Should the renter decide to take a lesser vehicle than booked within 14 days of pick up or during the rental then they will not be entitled to any refund.
Limit of Liability In the event of no alternative vehicle being available to the renter our liability is limited to a refund of the hire charge or in the case of mechanical failure (unless caused by the renter) the remainder of the hire period.
Important We reserve the right to refuse any rental at our discretion. Animals No animals are permitted in our vehicles, excluding guide dogs. Smoking Smoking is not allowed in our vehicles.
Cancellation Fees Deposit non-refundable. The initial deposit paid is non-refundable. In addition to forfeiting your deposit, the following charges also apply:
If cancelled 45+ days prior to pick up and 7 days or more after the booking date - $250 If canceled 44 to 8 days prior to pick up - 50% of Net Rental (minimum $250) If canceled 7 to 4 days prior to pick up - 75% of Net Rental (minimum $250) If canceled 3 days or less prior to pick up or no show - 100% of Net Rental plus one way fees.
Amendments If you wish to make any changes to your booking the booking will be calculated by using either the original flex rate or the flex rate that is valid at the time of the booking change, depending on whichever rate is higher. There are no exceptions to this rule. The following situations are classified as booking alterations:
- Change of date for vehicle pick-up or drop-off - Change of location (depot) for vehicle pick-up or drop-off - Change of vehicle category - Name change
If you decide to extend your rental duration (changing the drop-off date) by 2 days the same flex rate is used that applied on the day when you made your original booking. If you extend by 3 days or more, the booking change rule applies as outlined above.
If an amendment is made to the rental dates within 14 days of collection, no refund will be made if the length of hire is shortened (that is; the rental will be charged at the number of days originally booked). There is no refund for late pick up or early return of vehicle. A relocation fee may apply if the collection or return location is amended within 14 days of vehicle pick up or if notification occurs during the hire.
Please note: Cancellations or amendments must be made strictly in writing via email.
Travel Insurance We strongly recommend that renters ensure they take out the highest level of Travel Insurance.
PROTECTION PACKAGE
Public Liability Insurance: The public liability insurance is included in the daily rental rate. Apollo is insured for damages to third parties and/or their property up to a limit of US$1 million. The public liability insurance that covers the registered drivers is only up to the statutory limit as stipulated by law of the State you are in at the time. This insurance amount is normally very low.
Top Service Inclusion: Cheapa Campa has included an additional SLI third party insurance policy in the rental rates which increases the driver’s public liability insurance level to US$1 million – well above the statutory limits. The maximum SLI insurance covers claims made by third parties against the rental company or the renter of the motorhome (for damage to third parties or their property). Passengers in the rented motorhome are not counted as third parties and the driver is therefore not insured for claims brought by them against him/herself.
Property Damage The renter is responsible up to the amount of $1,000 for the cost of damage to the rented Vehicle. The renter is also responsible for the cost of demurrage for the period the Vehicle is unavailable due to repairs. The Liability applies in respect of each claim, not per rental. The Liability is applicable regardless of who is at fault and must be paid at the time the accident is reported to Apollo, not at the completion of the rental Period.
Liability Reduction Option (LRO) A $0 (zero) Liability applies. This Option can be purchased by paying to Apollo $15 per day. The maximum amount payable for this Option per rental is $375 – i.e. 25 days rental. LRO protects against: - Accidental damages - Windscreen and other glass damage - Protection against theft and vandalism - Protection against uninsured motorists
Bond Cheapa Campa’s rental charge includes a Liability of $1,000. A Bond of $1,000 will be collected at the time of entering into the Rental Contract. The $1,000 will be debited to the credit card account immediately. An administration fee of $20 applies.
For security purposes, only a credit card can be used to provide a Bond. The credit card holder must be present and able to sign for the Bond upon vehicle collection. The credit card holder is jointly and severally liable for any damage to the rental vehicle.
The Bond is fully refundable when the vehicle is returned to the correct location on time, is full of fuel and all other terms of the Rental Contract have been complied with. If there is damage to the vehicle on its return, the Bond will be used to cover the cost of such damage up to the amount of the relevant Liability. However, if the terms of the Rental Contract are breached and the Bond is insufficient to cover the damage then any extra cost will be charged.
Full Responsibility At all times the renter is responsible for: - Damage caused where the terms of Rental Contract have been breached. - Damage caused by negligence. - Damage caused to the Vehicle in any way by part or total water submersion or salt water. - Damage caused due to a single vehicle roll over. - Damage caused to the Vehicle by the renter’s willful conduct. - Damage caused to the Vehicle when using the Vehicle in contravention of any legislation or regulation controlling vehicular traffic. - Damage or loss caused to any personal belongings. - Damage caused due to use of incorrect or contaminated fuel. - Damage to the awning, overhead or underbody of the Vehicle.
