At the pick-up the keys for a fully fueled and cleaned camper are handed over to you. You will receive a detailed briefing on all the important functions and equipment components of your camper and also have the opportunity to clarify any unanswered questions. Feel free to ask again if anything is unclear. It is important that you feel confident in handling your camper and its equipment so that you can start your trip relaxed and enjoy it.
As alternative to the explanation at the station, you can inform yourself in advance and watch our explanatory videos on our YouTube channel. We strongly recommend watching those especially if you would like to save time during your pick-up. Expect approximately 45 to 60 minutes for the handover procedure, if you haven't watched the video. If you have a lot of questions, then it will take a little longer. :-)
There is a handover protocol in which the condition of your camper and the (booked) extras are recorded. Please remember to show the identity documents and driving licenses of all registered drivers at the handover.
With the handover your camper is fully fueled - make sure that with the return of the camper the tank is also full, otherwise we will fill it for you and charge you according to our T&C.

If you want to use the vehicle in other countries and areas, a prior written consent of FreewayCamper is required. In this case, FreewayCamper undertakes to provide an appropriately extended insurance cover with additional costs for the lessee.

During the winter months there are certain things you have to pay extra attention to due to the lower temperatures. These are mainly concerning gas storage, use of water in the camper and insulation. When you pick up your camper you will get a detailed briefing on these issues, but you can also read up on certain points in the here.
Of course you can heat your camper. All of our campers have a parking heater, so it is always nice and warm in your camper. In our VW models this is a diesel heater, the Campervan models as well as the RV's are equipped with a gas heater.
For a comfortable camping experience the right temperature inside the camper is crucial. If the water system is used and therefore there is water in the tank and in the pipes, the camper must be heated continuously to at least 8 degrees, otherwise the water system will be seriously damaged. Of course it is not always necessary to heat at the highest level, but depending on the needs and situation. We recommend the following temperature settings: 18-22 degrees when staying in the camper, 16-18 degrees at night, 8-9 degrees when leaving the camper. When leaving a camper with pop-up roof, it should also be closed so that not too much heat gets lost (also with Calicap for VW Bulli). We also recommend regular airing to ensure a pleasant room climate.
How long your gas supply will last depends, of course, on the type of use and duration. In the VW models, you use the gas exclusively for cooking (equipment: 1x approx. 3 kg gas bottle), which normally lasts 6 months. In our campervan and motorhome models, you use the gas for cooking, heating and hot water. At least one full gas cylinder is installed here (approx. 11 kg). In summer, the gas will normally last for about 4 weeks, but this figure is highly variable in the winter months and depends on certain factors. With differentiated use of the heating (i.e. turn the heating down at night and when leaving the camper) and an outside temperature of around 0 degrees, an 11 kg gas bottle is sufficient for approx. 3 days.
In case of longer booking periods and intensive use of gas, it can happen that a gas bottle has to be replaced. To exchange the gas bottle you can buy one from conventional DIY stores, various gas stations and dealers of the company Scharr.
Yes, but there are a few important things to consider if the outside temperature is 6 degrees or less. During the winter months, due to the cold temperatures, the campers are handed over completely drained of water so that no water can freeze in the system and thus damage the entire water system. So if water is used during the rental period the camper must be heated continuously (at least 8 degrees) to prevent damage.
We recommend the following differentiated use of the heating in the RV and the campervan models: 18-22 degrees when staying in the camper, 16-18 degrees at night, 8-9 degrees when leaving the camper.
The VW Bulli models should be heated at least to level 3. In addition, the waste water tank drain cock must be left open all the time. A detailed explanation and briefing will take place on site when picking up the vehicle.
The water should never freeze, therefore it is absolutely necessary to heat the camper starting from an outside temperature of 6 degrees or lower as soon as there is water in the system. We recommend a differentiated heating (always at least 8 degrees inside the camper). In addition, the waste water tap must always be left open and the grey water must be collected in an additional tank (for a grey water disposal in accordance with regulations). Furthermore the water system must be completely emptied when returning the camper. A detailed explanation and instruction will be given to you when you pick up the camper on site, so that any questions can be clarified.
There are also a few important aspects to consider before returning or not using the water: Fresh water tank, waste water tank and pipes must be completely emptied. When emptying, never let the water run out via the pipes, but always via the direct opening for emptying the water tank (Campervan models: rotating wheel on the water tank in the trunk; VW Bulli models: red lever above the gas cylinder in the trunk; RV's: black lever in the service module on the driver's side). For a complete emptying the water pumps can be switched off first and then the water residues can be emptied by opening the tap and activating the toilet flush (do not forget to turn off the tap!). The exact places for all important pivots will be shown to you again during the briefing, so that at the end of the day there are no questions left unanswered.
During the winter months, due to the cold temperatures, campers are handed over completely empty. In general it is possible to fill the water tank privately or on campgrounds, but if this is not possible, other places offer possibilities to fill the tank e.g. the Campsite App park4night, App Truck Parking Europe or similar. Please note that in all our camper models only clean drinking water may be filled into the water tank.
The windows of the camper represent certain cold bridges that are less well insulated than the rest of the vehicle, and heat can always escape through them to the outside. Of course, you can counteract the cold effect with heating. To reduce the amount of heating required, we recommend insulating the strongest cold bridges of the individual models. For the VW Bullis, the windscreens can be additionally insulated with external insulation mats and the roof tent with the Calicap. For the Campervan models, we also offer exterior insulation for the windscreens. You can simply book this as an additional service and easily fit it during your trip. You can find more information on this topic here: Winter equipment and winter camping.
Yes, our winter equipment can be booked all year round. If you travel to colder destinations our winter equipment might be even helpful in summer.
All over Europe you are backed by our comprehensive insurance with a deductible of 1.500 €. Furthermore, the europe-wide 24/7 roadside assistance is included, so you can jump start your adventure without any worries. We also offer additional insurance packages, while the silver protection package costs 9€ per night, the gold protection package costs 19€ per night and the platinum protection package costs 29€ per night. These insurance packages can be selected directly when booking the camper through FreewayCamper and before start of your trip. More information can be found here.
In case of a breakdown or malfunction of your camper, please contact the insurance for the roadside assistance service. In the case of an accident, you have to inform the local police. In addition, you need to report every breakdown, damage and any accident immediately to the FreewayCamper customer service. All important contact details of the insurance and customer service you will receive at the pick-up. Following an accident a standardized European Accident Report on site must be filled, signed by all parties involved in the accident and handed over to FreewayCamper - for details, please see our Terms and Conditions.
Inform us immediately if something is broken or damaged in the interior of the camper, no matter if it was your fault or not. As far aspossible, we will help you directly with the solution of the issue or a recommendation of a corresponding workshop. In the same moment we take care of organizing spare parts so that the campers can be repaired quickly.
Damages occured due to storm, hail, flooding, collision with wildlife, avalanches, marten bites or any other nature related scenarios are in the responsibility of the customer. For those cases a deductible of €1,500 is applicable.
For any fines (e.g. speeding or wrong parking) or criminal offenses, you are liable as a lessee of the camper with unlimited liability for the resulting costs and fees. In case of an data request we will provide the lessee's data to the respective authority.
Due to the significant efforts and expenses for processing the authorities request, we charge an administration fee of 50€ if there is an administrative offense. This is independent of the amount of the fine.
No, the fine must be paid regardless of the administration fee directly to the authority.
Please file an appeal at the responsible authority. If your objection is upheld, we will cancel our administration fee.
Please inform yourself before traveling to other countries about specific local legal regulations. You as a lessee are responsible for complying with country-specific (traffic) regulations and the respective timely payment of fines for offenses, tolls and road pricing. These are not part of the contract and have to be paid by the lessee.

Does FreewayCamper offset the campers CO₂ emissions?
We are campers and nature lovers. Therefore, we compensated each kilometer and the associated CO₂ emissions by a compensatory payment for an ecological project in the past years. However we are currently in the process of identifying new sustainability partners that can grow with us, allowing us to continue to honor our goal of becoming a pro-active carbon-neutral company.
Are there diesel driving restrictions for your camper?
