Travel Trailer Rental in San Diego, CA

San Diego is a fine place to pick up a trailer and disappear toward the coast or the desert. Five travel trailer companies serve the city, averaging 4.4 stars, and four of them will deliver the rig to your site. I have rented four RVs over the years, one of them a genuine lemon, so I read reviews closely and ask about fees before I book.

Delivery changes the math

Four of the five companies deliver, which matters with a trailer. Towing one yourself means a brake controller, mirrors and a truck rated for the weight, and most renters would rather have it dropped at the campground. Delivery fees vary by distance, so ask for the number before you book. Two nearby companies also serve the area, which widens your choice if the first call is booked. When I rented a trailer in another state, delivery was the difference between a relaxing week and a white-knuckle drive through city traffic.

Fees that surprise people

The rate on the listing is rarely the final bill. Mileage allowances, generator hours and cleaning charges add up, and I once paid a generator fee I never saw coming. Ask directly about the security deposit, what insurance covers and who pays for what after an incident. Pet rules differ by owner even when the listing says pets welcome. One-way drop fees apply if you finish somewhere other than San Diego. Summer and holiday weeks book early, so reserve the trailer and the campsite together.
