The RV Rental Price Index: where and when RV rental is cheapest

Based on 100,000+ real supplier price quotes across 300+ cities in 70+ states and countries, sampled weekly from live supplier APIs and supplier seasonal price lists. Price rankings compare a like-for-like one-week (7-night) rental, so they use the subset of those quotes that covers exactly 7 nights; the seasonal curve uses the same subset, except in a quarter where too few cities have a one-week quote, which instead uses each city's shortest quote of up to 10 nights and is marked as such. All figures are rounded. Each region is shown in its main currency; quotes originally in another currency are converted at our stored reference rate (as of 2026-09-13), so those figures are approximate.
