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 prevai. Changing party size or adding pre-paid items does not consitute a change. Flex rate valid for 35 days and on day 36 a new Flex rate will apply.

Travel Restrictions:
Vehicles are not permitted in Manhattan and allowed through any underground or underwater tunnels

If you plan on travelling to Alaska, Yukon, Northwest territories & Newfoundland or Death Valley please tell us so we can note this. If you travel in these areas and have a problem, all recovery expenses are at the clients own risk as well as tyres, towing charges etc. During July and August, vehicles are not allowed to operate in Death Valley and other desert areas. In May, June and September, clients visit these areas at their own risk and and are thus reseponsible for all recovery and charges as listed above.

Mexico: Motorhomes are permitted to enter Northern Baja, Sonora, Chihuahua, Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, Coahuila. No automotive liability or other coverages apply to vehicle operation in Mexico so whilst in Mexico, you are fully responsible for all expenses related to any and all mechanical problems or towing. The client is responsible for purchase of separate insurance available at southwestern rental centres. The cost is USD$20 per day of travel in Mexico and dates must be provided. Note that Supplemental Liability insurance which is included in daily rates is not valid in Mexico.

Winter warning: Vehicle operating systems are not fully operable during subfreezing temperatures. Check the Renter Assistance Guide for winter operations but be aware that in Canada and northern US cities vehicles are likely to have anti-freeze in holding tanks meaning that vehicle water facilities will not be available to you.
