Alaska RV Rental

Tips and Advice

An Alaska vacation is something every outdoor enthusiast should experience once in his or her lifetime. But, with the price of gas and the distance, an RV or camper trip to Alaska is just out of the question. Renting your RV in Alaska is the smartest way to enjoy all that Alaska has to offer. Alaska has many different RV rental businesses that will rent out all sizes of RVs, from luxury touring vans to smaller truck campers.

One such business is ABC Motorhome and Car Rentals located at 3875 W. International Airport Road in Anchorage. They offer smaller truck campers perfect for 2 people, and motorhomes for 2 people on up to 6 people, at prices starting at $90 per night on up to $240 per night depending on the season and size of the RV. (Their luxury touring vans hold up to 10 people and are more expensive - $375 a day without a driver and $675 with a driver/tour guide)

ABC features Lance and Northern Lite slide in campers, which are self-contained units with no need for hookup. They are totally battery and propane operated, and come with stove, refrigerator/freezer, sink, shower, toilet, hot water, hot air furnace and ground hookups. TV/DVD or TV/VCR are included in the larger motorhome rentals. Their website states that everything is included in the nightly rental rate, including linens, pots, pans, cooking utensils, unlimited mileage and full coverage insurance. The only thing they don't provide is food, gas and propane.

ABC is a member of the Alaska Travel Industry Association, the Anchorage Convention and Visitors Bureau, and the Better Business Bureau. To contact them call 800-421-7456 or email them at info@abcmotorhome.com.

Renting an RV in Alaska

Author: Elizabeth Morgan

Alaska may be the last frontier, but the cost of owning your own RV may seem like its own insurmountable boundary, never mind the drive to Alaska. In renting an RV in Alaska, you can travel when and where you want, and at a fraction of the cost of buying an RV. Alaskan RV rentals offer the best way to experience the Alaskan experience.

The most popular RV rental is the class-C motor home. It's easy to drive -- making it perfect for the first time RV renter -- and has comforts of home like beds, a toilet, shower, heat and air-conditioning, refrigerator, and a microwave. These may be especially nice in the Alaskan wilderness. If you want a slightly more rustic experience, consider renting a folding camping trailer, travel trailer, or truck trailer.

Some rental agencies provide complementary cooking and bedding sets, a TV and DVD player for when you are tired of looking at the Alaskan wilderness and BBQ sets with lawn chairs for Alaskan cookouts. If you don't want these extras, shop around for more basic, and possibly cheaper, RV rentals.

Pricing varies throughout Alaskan RV rental agencies. The off-season, when rates are the cheapest, starts at the beginning of September and runs through the end of May. Some agencies charge a base fee of around $150 a day with unlimited miles within Alaska. Other agencies have a cheaper base fee starting around $70 a day, but charge an additional fee per mile, usually between 15 and 20 cents.

Most Alaskan RV rental agencies provide one-way rentals, but you will have the best luck finding an RV in Anchorage, where the majority of RV rental agencies are based. Start your search on the Internet to find the Alaskan RV rental agency that will serve your needs the best. Don't be afraid to ask questions, especially about insurance and extra costs like cleaning fees. Have fun exploring the last frontier!
