Your rig is protected
Your rig is protected in Pennsylvania.
Verified handover
Renters verify identity through Stripe Connect KYC, and timestamped handover photos document your rig's condition before keys change hands.
Pre- and post-trip inspection
A simple inspection checklist captures the rig's state at pickup and return, so any renter-attributable damage is clear, not a he-said-she-said.
Your policy stays yours
PickRV does not sell or offer insurance coverage. Renters arrange their own coverage; hosts may carry their own commercial policies. PickRV is not an insurer.
Returned the way you sent it
Clear return expectations and the post-trip inspection set the standard, so your rig comes back ready for the next guest — clean and accounted for.
