Import / Export Fees:
We try to confirm all One-way requests. However, there are times when the direction of the drop or time of year does not make sense in terms of fleet utilization. Therefore, El Monte RV will consider accepting a specific one-way request for the standard one-way fee PLUS up to an additional USD $2,000 to import or export the motor home to the location needed. Import / Export Fees must be pre-paid and are non-refundable in the event of cancellation.

Security Deposit:
A USD $1,000 (USD $5,000 for Diesel Pusher Units) security deposit is required at the time of departure. The deposit is to be guaranteed by a major credit card such as Visa, MasterCard, Eurocard, Amex or Discover Card with sufficient credit balance to cover this amount. ATM/Debit/Check Cards are not accepted.

The security deposit is a verification and pre-authorization of available funds. The security deposit  guarantee is valid only for the duration of the rental contract and will not appear on the client’s credit card  statement; therefore, it will not necessitate a ‘refund’. The security deposit capture is automatically  released upon completion of the return contract provided that the rental vehicle is returned clean inside,  undamaged and on time.

World Market Flex Rates:
Elmonte's Daily Rental Rates are know as 'Flex Rates' . These give you the very best available price for the motorhome you want to rent. If you book early and there are plenty of motorhomes available, you will pay a much lower price. If you book closer to departure date or book for a high demand period then the rate will be higher. This is a similar system to that used by airlines.

No mileage is included in the Flex rates. Choose from the available mileage options above. Once booked and confirmed, should you need to change, the rate will be re-calculated using the most current Flex rate and compared to the existing flex rate. The higher rate will prevail. Rates are pro-rated, calculated season by season.
