Campervan Hire Insurance

Because Accidents Do Happen

At Bonfire Vans (as with most hire companies) we require a security deposit to cover our beautiful vans as set out in our Terms and Conditions. The amount is determined by the insurance package you choose to book with us.

This amount must be secure before the vehicle can be taken and in no circumstances, can we release the vehicle without it.

The security deposit covers any damage or loss to our hire vehicles and any third parties involved in any one incident whilst on hire and will be refunded when we are happy the vehicle is returned in the condition it was rented in, pretty fair really.

The security deposit is the amount you are required to leave upon collection of the hire vehicle. The security deposit is also your liability amount, meaning the maximum you can be charged in a single accident.

Check out the packages on offer and choose what’s best for you.
