Standard Excess Insurance Policy
All Campers vehicles come with comprehensive insurance cover. A standard excess of R45,000.00 applies in the event of any damage to either our vehicle or third party property. The renter will also be fully liable for replacing or repairing damaged windscreens and tyres. A security bond of R45,000.00 will be taken on vehicle collection. The security bond can be paid by traveler's cheque or credit card. Should the bond be paid by credit card the amount will be debited to your account immediately, any currency fluctuations are not the responsibility of the rental company. The bond is fully refundable on return of the vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date, with no damage incurred to the vehicle or third party property and the toilet cassette has been emptied and no items are lost or damaged.
The following two (2) options are offered to reduce or waive the Standard Excess Insurance:
Excess Reduction 1
Excess Reduction 1 at R 150.00 per day will reduce the excess for any damage to either vehicle or third party property to a maximum of R 20,000.00. The renter, however, will be fully liable for replacing or repairing damaged windscreens, radio theft, Recovery costs, Replacement costs, clutch damage and tyres. The bond of R 20,000.00 can be paid by traveller's cheque or credit card: a manual imprint of the credit card will be taken. This is fully refundable on return of the vehicle to the agreed location, on the agreed date, with no damage incurred to the vehicle or third party property and the toilet cassette has been emptied and no items are lost or damaged. The total insurance charge is limited to a maximum of 50 days or R 7,500.00.
In case of any damage to the vehicle or third party property a second bond will be collected to cover the excess for any subsequent damage.
Excess Reduction 2
Excess Reduction 2 at R 300.00 per day will waive the excess for any vehicle and third party property damage and the cost of replacing or repairing of windscreens, tyre damage, radio theft and recovery costs. A security deposit of R 1250.00 is payable at the time of pickup to ensure that the vehicle is returned to the agreed location, on the agreed date in clean condition and with the toilet cassette and waste water tank has been emptied and no items are lost or damaged. The total charge is limited to a maximum of 50 days or R 15000.00. A handling fee of R250.00 is charged on all vehicle damages.
Please note that clutch replacement or damage due to client negligence is not covered with both with CER 1 and CER 2.

Accidents
By law all accidents must be reported to the rental company and the Local Police within 24hrs. Failing to report accidents voids all insurance cover and the Hirer becomes fully liable for all costs.
- If the rental vehicle is involved in an accident and is not drivable, a replacement vehicle, may be collected from the closest branch.
- If the hirer requires a replacement vehicle to be delivered, then these charges will be for the hirers account.
- The hirer is responsible for the recovery of the damaged vehicle to the original rental branch.
- If the hirer is unable to take a replacement vehicle, no refunds for early termination of the contract will be considered.
- No refund of rental days lost will be considered during the period in which a replacement vehicle is being replaced.
- Should the hirer continue with a replacement vehicle then a new rental contract and insurance conditions will apply.
The rental company reserves the right to apply the above conditions as they deem fit.
